If the CSD/CSM is feeling generous, and of course why not, I wish they would just be proactive and bring a glass of Champagne or ask explicitly 'could I get you some tea or coffee from the CE trolley' and then I'd say yes. As it stands, I am just worried that asking for even a glass of sparkling water (which genuinely is my inclination) will be considered going beyond what I was genuinely being proposed.
