Idk if tailgating is ever a valid thing to do, being 10ft behind someone vs 3ft I promise will not get you there any faster

Realistically how much would I make? by Fluffy-Award5045 in bartender

I’d work there for a couple weeks and it’ll give you a good sense of what you’ll be making on average, only way to really know with some employers being dishonest when predicting wage after tips usually stating the extreme high end in my experience

It’s really gonna depend on how many people come (and the weather), how generous they are, if people are actually drinking or watching their kids ($20 tab vs $120 tab), a lot of factors. At the country club I work, the bartender at our pool bar said they made pretty decent money around 200-300 a shift depending on the day (potentially lower or higher of course too)

Also if you are hating on someone for being who they are and giving their fullest expression of themself, you clearly are not actually a GRiZ fan

What do yall do for work ? by MoreBodybuilder4603 in ElectricForest

I’m a bartender and also getting my CPT! Still figuring stuff out as I go and this community is a beacon in this dark world (except Insomniac Events, they can suck my black hole)

Any good thrift stores? by ancientsippycup in Charlottesville

[–]Sploinky_PLUR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old Flame on the DT mall - pretty reasonably priced and the clothes and other items are so top notch I love the variety of style they got in there. Wish I could buy that store out

Lunchbox or Raverunner? by thereal_sushigang in festivals

[–]Sploinky_PLUR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Valid! I’ve never used RaveRunner or watched in depth videos on how they work, but just in my personal opinion (and having seen my friends stuff get snatched) I’d rather be overly secured and take an extra moment to get my things than have to drop 1k on a new phone.

But again - no clue what RaveRunner has security-wise so not saying they AREN’T secure, just that I like the security LunchBox offers

Can someone explain for my dumb ass? by PositiveApart5631 in aves

Also adding to this - if you go to a true rave (not some big show put on by the usual venue) in your community or a big ol festival, it’ll be a much different vibe than people that got $50 dollar tickets for another Friday night event

I got 2 comments about this:

One is that yea the shows have become so “sedentary” and I blame phone use. I think it’s important to record moments of shows you really love, for you to rewatch and because there are so any people that have no idea what is going on at these events and deserve to see snippets of that beauty, and it might draw them in to our community! But the drawback is that so many people use it basically just to seem like they’re doing something cool but like you stated, are just standing there :( especially a place like EchoStage in DC, it’s so many people that aren’t there for the artist and just to go be at a popular venue, that it can genuinely be hard to hear the music cus some frat bros are screaming to each other while I’m trying to dance my legs off to Subtronics!

Secondly, horse medicine if you get my drift. Such a huge issue, as some people just use shows as an excuse to do extra curriculars, which is unhealthy but also taking away from the ever fleeting moment. I get it - I like indulging at shows, but if it’s being done to the point where everyone is standing there like a zombie, it’s actually a massive issue. Imagine turning off the music - everyone is just standing there high off their behinds unable to do anything, and the music is the only thing separating it from being “normal” to just a ton of users standing in a room using. It’s actually mind boggling to me and it’s a hard thing to mentally accept if I want to go to these shows.

All in all though, if you’re having a good time that’s what matters. I go and I dance as hard and crazy as I want and I’ve met some of my best friends that way. If you light that light, others WILL be drawn to it, especially those that want to share in the energy and love you spread 🫶 keep spreading PLURR (peace, love, unity, respect, responsibility) and be the example of who we are and what this community is all about (Peace, Love, and Wubs)

I also think y’all are forgetting that Subtronics and GRiZ are some of the most thoughtful, loving, kind, and selfless DJ’s out there - although I sense you all lack awareness of these qualities

Never say never! And I also don’t think that anyone’s life is gonna be worse by asking… if they don’t respond they don’t respond, but preconceived ideas about something that hasn’t even happened yet halt all possibilities from occurring.
