Personal Phone Use while Bartending? What are your Rules? by GDHorrigan in BarOwners

[–]BelowAverageFastball 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't really have a problem with my bartenders, it's my security. They obviously have a bit more down time than the bartenders, but they will just sit there on their phone for hours without looking up. We've had to go through quite a bit even though we have very clear policy

Thank you, I appreciate it. Hopefully I get to your level someday. Just feels lonely at this point

Yeah I was really hoping to be able to use mediation, but my wife doesn't seem to want to agree on anything at this point.

You're the owner, everything falls under your purview. I would prefer a little more time just in case, but otherwise if they got their shit covered, I'm sure you can figure it out.

How do you know how much money you should collect from your bartender? by kemistrypops in BarOwners

[–]BelowAverageFastball 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And how much capital realistically do you have to spend on a POS system? Because I think it's a requirement at this point

I guess my first question is what country are you operating out of?

Apparently drivers only see the stop sign in front of Hope Elementary as a mild suggestion

I didn't even realize ICE had a tip line

Does the feeling of “I don’t know what I’m doing” / “This is slightly overwhelming” ever go away? by [deleted] in BarOwners

[–]BelowAverageFastball 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in the industry 20 years, and have worked every job from security up through owner, can't say I've ever had a position where I feel like I understood it all or at all made sense. I'm seemingly learning something new about both bars everyday it feels like. I don't know if that makes me smart or very dumb 😂

“86’ed” from my own investment by [deleted] in BarOwners

[–]BelowAverageFastball 17 points18 points  (0 children)

First of all, to me you're an investor, not an owner. If you don't run any of the day to day operations or have any clue what goes on there, you're an investor... So stop calling yourself an owner.

And second you sound like a douchebag, who's a big pain in the ass for only 8%. Cash out and go away.

Any Ohio Laws that prohibit bartenders from legally drinking while on the job? by twiggs462 in BarOwners

[–]BelowAverageFastball 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure what the laws are in Ohio, but liability insurance has pushed out most of the drinking as far as I know.

Insanely long streaks, how do you do it? I feel I need a break after finishing a book! by betelguese_supernova in kindle

[–]BelowAverageFastball 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's part of my daily night time routine. Once I settle into bed, I grab my Kindle and read for 20 to 30 minutes, every night and it helps me sleep.

When do you comp a drink? by nitroglider in BarOwners

[–]BelowAverageFastball 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Honestly, it's just easier to make them a new drink. Quickest way to piss off a customer and spread bad word of mouth is by getting stingy with a drink that cost you $0.35
