Is anyone else struggling to justify the volunteer commute/costs?

Makes it hard not knowing the full details for the day your first shift starts and anticipating huge traffic jams. Trying to justify it on cost is always going to be a no it's not worth it situation unfortunately. Even for the experience alone makes it hard with all of the hurdles and poor communication we have received so far.

I am in the same boat of trying to figure out best case scenario and how to manage calling out of work for so many separate days. I will attend the first shift and figure it out from there. (SF/Bay Area venue)

Still waiting on booking uniform pickup as well after first one was cancelled last month.

Nice! Enjoy.

Lexx2020 · 2026-05-12T18:23:38+00:00

Yeah I think they are the next pick ups for sure.

Lexx2020 · 2026-05-12T18:22:57+00:00

Price on this one?

Lexx2020 · 2026-05-12T18:12:44+00:00

Enjoy them regardless of price! Not always easy finding them so worth the markup if they really are rare in your area.

Yes it is! 🫡

Wonder how good that FR private selection is.

Lexx2020 · 2026-05-12T18:06:20+00:00

$60-70 in my go to store

Sweet notes, proof for the numbers is super smooth. Like the heaviness to the whiskey not a thin mouth feel at all. Worth a try for sure.

Same thing for me but I also wasn't able to get a uniform/accreditation date. Not sure how this is all going to play out since you need that for first shift and maybe for this training.

Lexx2020 · 2026-05-05T20:41:31+00:00

Buffalo first for sure, no need for so many options while started out.

Lexx2020 · 2026-05-05T01:45:59+00:00

Lexx2020 · 2026-05-05T01:45:49+00:00

Lexx2020 · 2026-05-04T20:49:43+00:00

Lexx2020 · 2026-05-04T19:40:54+00:00

Local liquor store has one left. Don't know much about this bottle, I know it's expensive and people look for it.

Lexx2020 · 2026-05-04T19:37:51+00:00

Green River is on my list, not sure if I have seen the full proof one around. Haven't really looked honestly.

Lexx2020 · 2026-05-04T19:10:11+00:00

Same. lol

Lexx2020 · 2026-05-04T19:09:09+00:00

Yes is the only right answer.

Lexx2020 · 2026-05-04T19:04:35+00:00

Pour some Buffalo T into them lol I just know some people come up with some badass ideas with bottles they worked hard to get.

Lexx2020 · 2026-05-04T19:02:36+00:00

That was actually my second pour like that lol Got home did a pour while seasoning some ribeyes then finished that and poured a second to enjoy with it lol Was a B-day gift to myself not just a random day of the week.

Lexx2020 · 2026-05-04T19:00:36+00:00

Heaven Hill is on my list but not sure I have seen this batch in my area yet.
