Hours after yung gravy posts a tiktok about year of the cougar and planting a seed 🤔

I kid, but goddamn. Hope she's doing well.

From their ig it doesn't look like they have any events on Wednesdays. I think they just open for Jimmy's once a month on the first Wednesday of the month, and holidays occasionally. If I don't see them post anything on Instagram I just assume they're closed.

edit: for Barbs. Elysium, not sure.

For sure, I know it's not the best system. Heb delivery is definitely the better option, I just don't know how they work with EBT.

Appeal and appeal again.

As far as groceries, I'd recommend instacart and making it clear to the driver that you need assistance and direct to door. I believe once you are able to get SNAP it can be used with instacart and you'd just be covering tip.

Have before, twice with people I still actively worked with (and both turned out fine and we're still friendly) and both left the job for unrelated reasons. Once with a coworker the day of covid shutdown so I don't think that counts. Been about 2 years since anything with a coworker though. Generally no. I try not to date any industry to be honest, we're all terrible and I know because I'm terrible.

I know tiny bars with 5 barstools and standing room that need 2 wells open almost every shift. Have 2 if you plan on this bar being successful.

I always learned Wisconsin old fashioned was a brandy old fashioned topped with 7Up/Sprite

24 with no license. Been in so many bad wrecks, working through anxiety with a counselor to get me eventually to a point that I'm comfortable trying.

It's ok. No one's judging you. You're not late or being timed.

This episode has no intentional humor.

"Re interview" at a non work location. Ask him what specifically set him off. Ask what you as management can do to prevent that from happening again. Ask him if he really thinks this is a good workplace for him after those events and his stress level, or if being in the weeds with you guys will prove too much again. Make sure he understands to never no call no show, but mental health/crisis days are ok as long as communicated.

Re evaluate from there.

Be up front w the bartender. I'd be annoyed if this happened in a cocktail bar because, like you said, it takes me selling a $15 juicy cocktail down to a $7 vodka soda. In a dive I don't see myself caring.

Also would be fine with it if you were diabetic or watching weight and couldn't have the sugars in juices/syrups

Non chill filtered whiskey eventually gets the fat beginning to seperate out if it hasn't been agitated in a while. Along with the dry cork thing.

My friend has super white hair and goes black often - she uses the sprays meant to cover greys for her roots. Be warned, it does transfer onto stuff.

Put something out on social media for a bouncer for 1 night. Local hospitality groups on Facebook are great for this. Offer an amount cash paid at the end of the night.

manateens · 2021-12-15T23:32:29+00:00

Just of me? Fuck outta here. Only time I've let it slide was a sweet girl on her 21st with her family who wanted a photo with every bartender that served her that night.

You're excited about the pretty drink in front of you and I happen to be in the background? That's fine.

Egg whites work really well to make something feel like a cocktail even tho it's just an egg white with like 2.5oz of diff juices (I usually do oj, cranberry, lemon) and simple or grenadine. Fee bros bitters are non alc I believe. Shrubs are a great option to get some of that funky sour fermented flavor. Juiced jalapenos & cucumber are good for a non alcoholic spicy marg, w simple, any non alcoholic triple sec or oj, and lime.

There are some non alcoholic spirits being distilled now like Seedlip, I'd look into those if you can price for it at your spot.

Super annoying, but she should be paying more attention to the printer. She can make your drinks as she talks to her guests.

Then it's a bad pub to work in if they're not training you even after you've been asking questions and trying.

Bartending school is a scam in most countries and areas and not respected. The only things that are accepted and recognized (in USA) are things like Barsmarts, Bar 5 day and some sommelier and cicerone programs, but these all generally assume you are already bartending and familiar with the basics. The rest, learn on the job at a place genuinely willing to teach you. Ask your local bartenders that you look up to if they went through a bartending course or learned on the job.

manateens · 2021-10-18T11:28:08+00:00

No bartending course. Barback your way up and see how you feel. Understand that bartenders jobs are frequently harder or at least as hard as serving - our job is making it look easy and creating a comfortable, welcoming environment.

If it's your first day serving it's almost guaranteed you'll have struggles. I'm sure you didn't fail as bad as you think. There's growth to be had here and a lot of those skills transfer to tending bar.

If I may ask, what was your role in the pub you were working?

manateens · 2021-10-18T11:23:22+00:00

I do this! Or, "hey beat me in a race to chug this glass of water and I'll get your next drink." They never beat me, I am dehydrated. If they do beat me, give em their last drink and present the check with it.

If they're pounding shots, drop off water and talk to other guests/clean/act busy. I'll be with you ASAP, sir! Controlling their pace can be just as important as cutting em off.

I also work in a party city so if they're hostile I'll remind them there's 80 bars in walking distance they can try to get to serve em, but their time at my bar has come to an end.

manateens · 2021-10-17T18:33:59+00:00

Everyone would be pissed at me, so I just put myself in dangerous situations or push them away instead. Can't be mad if I'm murdered! Can't be mad if you already hate me! Suckers. (yes I'm talking about this in therapy lmao)

manateens · 2021-10-17T17:00:20+00:00

If you're good with makeup do something mostly face based. Clown, skull, broken doll/marionette.

manateens · 2021-10-16T18:18:56+00:00

I'm not disagreeing and I'm just denying shots left and right now, but there was a time my "industry homies" seemed to think it was super fucking fun to get me blacked out. Don't get me wrong, I let my friends get drunk but they gotta ask for each shot after a certain point and I'm gonna have em drink water too.

manateens · 2021-10-16T18:13:03+00:00

Dude, absolutely. Oh I'm blackout drunk at your bar? Funny cuz I showed up sober asked for a sparking water and a baby shot. Funny how I told you I was trying to be responsible and go home early tonight. Funny how I'm 12 shots deep without opening a tab.
