B&M etiquette question: I popped into Georgetown Tobacco down in DC over the weekend and picked up 2 sticks. I left not planning on smoking one right away but returned about 10 minutes later and asked if they had a cutter I could use. One of the guys grabbed a cutter and put his hand out for the cigar. I said I could snip it myself and did so. I didnt think anything of it until another worker said they are always happy to cut for me in what I took to be a somewhat snobby tone. Is it bad form to want to cut my own stick? The way the worker voiced himself just struck me as very odd.
