As far as the gin vs. vodka Martini, bartenders are supposed to ask. I generally don't ask if they seem to be older than 40. Older than 40 they want gin if they say "martini" and younger than 30 they usually want vodka.
I never allow a martini to touch metal (spoon/shaker) and I never shake a gin martini as not to bruise it. I also always give two olives unless they ask for more or less.
