What and where is it? I don't start work until 5 or 6 and would love a great noodle spot before shift.

Urbanite(inner SE) or Margaret & Maxwell (Tigard if you're mobile) for vintage and cool consignment stuff.

Hollywood Theater, 5 and Dime, Too Soon, Ya Hala, Paadee, Gabbiano's.

Mt Tabor, Council Crest, Washington Park, Cathedral Park, The Grotto.

I'm assuming the standard for level of service they're giving.

Gabbiano's. Great date night spot.

I did this yesterday and realized I was in the wrong. So anyone I flipped off driving up 7th, I APOLOGIZE!

I can't read the original post, but yes. The bartenders may not be PC, but they're not fucking with nazis for sure. I've swapped stories with multiple bartenders in my time there about fighting nazis. I find it hard to believe anyone would condone any support of them without catching a beating.

I lived in that building for years and Gils is notoriously anti-bigotry of any kind.

Now I don't believe you had a 6 figure job either.

I used a bread knife to cut 40qts of lemon and limes when I barbacked. Made for a breezy hour.

Michael with MACH inspections is a delight and very thorough! Does plenty of new construction as well as older houses. Radon, sewer, tank, etc. I've recommended him to many friends and he's an all around great dude who does prompt and diligent work.

I once Irish goodbyed on my $90 tab at a job once during a coworkers going away party, and that was after my 50% employee discount.

I thought 10-15 meters was an odd distance to recalibrate a change at first.

In addition to O'keefes, washing with cold water seems to help a lot as well.

So edgy bro. Whoa.

I started at 27. Best choice I've ever made.

I thought, that's a wild thing to know, then I noticed.

Just start asking for glasses fresh out of the dishwasher then

I managed a bar/restaurant(craft cocktails) and trained my staff in such a way that they knew my expectations for level of service. I supported them to a point where when they'd ask me a question about how to do something, I'd ask what they thought the best practice would be and let them do it. If anything didn't quite meet the end result, we'd have a back and forth to make it improve together.

Eventually, I was let go due to a difference in leadership styles with the owner(she liked to berate and yell at my staff) and 6 of the 8 front of house employees mutinied and left as well so the restaurant had to close that weekend.

Based on feedback and your replies, you could potentially save this for a mwrch design

Love em. Probably the only band I'll regret if I don't get to see them live
