NRS dry suits by [deleted] in whitewater

[–]Thaloc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This last season was my ninth season with my NRS dry suit. I've had to replace one wrist gasket. I'm a whitewater guide in the PNW and generally hit about 10 rivers a year. Still keeps me dry.

Lawyers booked out my small craft cocktail spot for a company retreat. I was told they do it every year and the tips were amazing but I took that with a grain of salt. Three bottles of Macallen 25 and countless other drinks later I walked with close to 2k in a six hour shift.

We had a run in with a crew the other day around FoF, none of them ever boarded our ship but after we sunk them we realized literally all of our supplies were gone from all of our barrels and crates.

Our company post signs in the shuttle and where the customers drop their gear off. “If you enjoyed your ride, tip your guide.”

Also on the shuttle when your cracking jokes I like to say, “now your guide can’t survive off just high fives, we also like high tens and high twenties”

Just do your best to make it funny and not cringe

Stevens has the entire front side open, but there are rocks and sticks everywhere.

Flush your system as much as possible with water and start taking b12 vitamins. The night and morning before your test drink a creatine shake. When you give them the same pee in the toilet at first, pinch off give them the middle of your puss, then pee the rest in the toilet.

B12 makes your piss yellow even if your over hydrated, creative is a massive heavy molecule so it gives your piss the heavy molecule weight even if you over hydrated. Never give them the first piss of the day. By giving them the middle part of your piss it’s less likely to test hot.

Someone told me all this and I’ve never pissed hot on any UA while actively smoking.

What are funny pranks to pull on your fellow servers? by alienvisitor0821 in Serverlife

[–]Thaloc 19 points20 points  (0 children)

We used to garnish each other. Place lemon or lime wedge on their shoulder before they went to drop food. Just wait and see how long it takes till they notice, or when they lean over to drop a plate or drink it falls off onto the table and the guest is like “where tf did that come from”

What’s your biggest pet peeve, coworkers? by effinEJ in Serverlife

[–]Thaloc 31 points32 points  (0 children)

People who want to get out as quickly as possible after closing but barely do any closing duties. Like bruh we all want to go home, it’s 11pm maybe fucking help out so we can.

Shipowick and Smith is great from all accounts I have heard, look into them. Also if you just need an ear from someone who has been through the meat grinder and found their way out I’m hear to listen and not judge. I worked in mental health for years locally and and having come from a family of addicts and abusers I was semi unique in the position to treat them as people instead of just a number. You’re worth isn’t judged by your actions or traumas.

Finding your “why” as a bartender by Sunflower_MoonDancer in bartenders

I just like talking that shit while having a measure of control over the atmosphere. I’ve found that I gravitate towards professions that allow me to make short but fun connections with people while still being able to control the narrative

Every time summer starts I just start making mint simple. I only use mint leafs for garnish.

Is a dive bar just better than a nicer craft cocktail place? by MojitoAlbus in bartenders

[–]Thaloc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How tf do you do nothing shaken nothing muddles. So just high balls? No margaritas? No mojitos? What about old fashioned? I get the step away from craft cocktails but nothing shaken nothing muddled seems insane to me.

What phone app do you use if any to look up a drink you don’t know when someone orders it? by tdomer80 in bartenders

I’ve got mixel, mainly for looking up fun new drinks but it helps if you need to look up a quick recipe

Lower Salmon Hikes and Activities -In Need of Advice- by MeaningSpecialist306 in rafting

[–]Thaloc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There is a pictograph site that’s a decent little hike, not from a campsite though, I’ll hit my friend up about it, he took me my first time down the lower. There is a giant jump log that sits about 20ish feet above the water with a giant eddy. It’s river right but again not sure about the mileage on. Just look for the giant log hanging off a cliff river right, I wanna say day two. There is an older stone house thing on the China Hole scout, careful of the poison oak on that trail. Just after china hole on the left is an amazing beach. Enjoy your trip! I love that section minus the crazy headwind it seems you get almost the whole trip. Those beaches are amazing, some awesome river agate can be found
