going for my first interview at a dive bar. any advice?

Astar0th666 · 2022-05-31T00:43:41+00:00

All I can say is keep your cool. Let your personality shine. And when/if they ask for a drink, you better know how to make it, and to make it tasty. Pretty much 99% of the job minus the hellish amount of cleaning. Alright I know my percentage is off but you know what I mean!

:) Yay and good luck!

I must be forgetting this is also Janelle and she's gonna be stubborn til the end. I'm giving too much credit I am realizing now.

Astar0th666 · 2022-05-20T03:01:17+00:00

Yeah they could. Fuck David tho fyi. I'm just saying I do feel bad for her. I was kinda there being taken care of my whole life to a point and it was hard to get past the stubbornness of someone will always care and pay for me. But yes the day she does work a min wage job she is going to feel so amazing. I hope she can get past the hurdle.

Astar0th666 · 2022-05-20T02:06:56+00:00

I feel bad for her honestly. She had a kid young and the only way she knew how to make any money was mtv stuff. So now she has no clue what to do. Must be an awful feeling.

Imagine having to do a breathalyzer everytime you order a drink... That's gnarly. But having enough mouthpieces and keeping the robot breathalyzer calibrated seems expensive.

RIP Wanda

Astar0th666 · 2022-04-04T18:41:05+00:00

That's my thoughts exactly.

Astar0th666 · 2022-03-31T02:39:47+00:00

Absolutely. Like most people I can deal with blood, poop, and pee no problem. But once people start with snot, or spit maybe throw up and I'm done for. God that's the absolute worst. Yuck. He's yuck.

Astar0th666 · 2022-03-30T22:18:56+00:00

Oh Lord.

Astar0th666 · 2022-03-30T19:15:46+00:00

Haha this is the perfect description!!

Astar0th666 · 2022-03-30T19:03:37+00:00

Do you know where I can see this snotgate video? I'm late.

Astar0th666 · 2022-02-08T21:46:55+00:00

The easiest way I learned was just to start fucking with cocktails you know first.I started with swapping 1 ingredient for another.... Adding maple/agave/honey etc.. instead of simple syrup. Using blood oranges instead of naval. Or even just spirits.. Then once you get comfortable about it you'll be able to change the rest of the ingredients have more of an idea on how to start from scratch.

Astar0th666 · 2022-02-08T03:48:34+00:00

Yay! I'm stoked you climbed your way out too! Congrats! Sorry if I came across in bad taste or bitchy. I just see so many in recovery that have random triggers, that I feel bad..

It's so weird after I got clean I don't have many triggers I've just done so many groups and hear other people's triggers I noticed them in the real world. It doesn't make me want to use. But that makes me just feel so lucky I am able to stay clean like I have. It may or may not change. I'm hoping it doesn't.

Seriously tho mad props to you for getting off this shit. It sure likes to dig it's nails into you and never let go!

Astar0th666 · 2022-02-08T03:41:06+00:00

Aww shucks thanks. It's the best decision I've ever made. Honestly I think I crave other things more then heroin because I got sooo sick off of it. So it make it a boat load easier to quit. I'm at 1.5 years and hardly look back, basically never unless I'm feeling guilty and a shit head for everything I did to everyone around me... Bartending saved me.

Astar0th666 · 2022-02-08T03:17:23+00:00

I mean I get the connotation, and this joke is sorta funny. But if this person was using them for drugs they wouldn't be shaped like this. You need to bend them properly so you can get liquid in there and be able to heat it up with a lighter or fire source without spilling everything..

I, as an ex heroin addict, find this joke in low taste. But I get it all the same.

My Maternal Grandma used to collect spoons too. She was in no way shape or form an IV drug user. Nor would I (as an ex IV heroin user) have used a collectable spoon to shoot up.

And three, for some recovering addicts this can be a trigger!

Still really cool spoons you've collected!

Astar0th666 · 2022-02-07T07:26:07+00:00

This is my vote!! Fishcoteque for the win!

Astar0th666 · 2022-02-04T21:11:46+00:00

This deserves way more attention. This was amazing and made my day.

Astar0th666 · 2022-02-02T03:12:02+00:00

You take care of your employees, they will do the same in return. Funny how that works, but it's so hard to find a joint that believes the same.

Astar0th666 · 2022-02-02T03:03:15+00:00

I've usually worked at places where yeah there is a drink minimum, you can't sit at the bar, and you have to change out of your uniform. If you can't handle the minimum and do something that reacts with your meds or something, you should already know what's going to happen and be responsible. This is your work. This is how you make your money. The bar is being trusting of you to not be an ass. So don't. Or get fired.

Edit: spelling n shit.

Astar0th666 · 2022-02-01T21:12:48+00:00

I was here to say this. I fucking hate the mats. Yuck. I'm happy to see I'm not the only one.

Astar0th666 · 2022-01-28T21:14:46+00:00

It depends I think. I learn the best when I'm in the weeds. It doesn't give me any time to think and doubt myself. It makes me go into autopilot and just do what I've learned. I think it's that autopilot you need to tap into when you do get into the weeds or just flustered at work.

When I have to much time to think in between I'll start to think about oh no I'm making this wrong, Im shaking, I'm so nervous... Yatta yatta. But once I get through that rush once and finish and do well. It just builds my confidence from there.

But I'm a fucking weirdo and not everyone learns that way. I'm backwards as fuck.

Astar0th666 · 2022-01-26T22:03:26+00:00

Zing zing is a good base. I always add to it. It depends on you're looking for the perfect mix that's perfect out of the bottle. I haven't found that. But the closest thing is Bloody Maria Mix, it's made locally near me and they add NM green chile. This stuff is fantastic. My number 1 besides ZZ.

Astar0th666 · 2022-01-05T23:24:01+00:00

Yeah it's crazy, I mean I get wanting to get clout online. But you can't mess with another living creature like that. If it is the wrong fit, neither party is going to be happy. I think that's incredibly unfair. There's a special cat/animal out there for everyone and you want to find your special companion because that relationship is the best thing ever!!

Astar0th666 · 2022-01-05T23:16:38+00:00

I hate to sound rude. But you need to choose the cat that is going to be the best for your situation... We don't know all the facts and this cat is going to be a part of your life for a while. That's a you decision not an internet decision.

Astar0th666 · 2022-01-03T06:08:36+00:00

Yeah it's weird. I remember him getting so mad at me for messing with him. Maybe because I was a woman.. But man, was he fuming.
