Not all bars have that luxury.
When I worked as a bartender, we had the three sinks filled with water. First sink had hot water, detergent, and the scrubby things sticking up. Second sink was used to rinse. Third sink was for the final rinse. After that the glasses are left to dry. If we had time, we'd wipe em dry. That method was used for the buckets and tall glasses because the majority of the time, people use straws to drink out of them.
Wine glasses and widths (draft glasses) are taken to the kitchen to be scrubbed with because mouths actually touch the glass.
I don't think I would have worked well with a dishwasher. Those things take a while to wash and dry and I'm sorry, you just don't have time for that on a busy Friday night...especially when the bar's packed and you're running out of glasses.
I did what I could to make sure that all glasses were clean. If people are so anal about not having them washed better, then drink beer out of the bottle. Better yet, don't come to my damn bar and drink at home.
