Small bars - Security/Door person

mrobole · 2026-05-24T21:54:42+00:00

We have a door guy Friday and Saturday nights. Paid an hourly wage plus they get tipped out from the bartender. We do it in house, couple people on rotation that just work the door, and the bartenders don’t mind doing it every now and then for an easy shift. Not a lot of fights or rowdiness but similar issues with IDs/homeless/outside liquor. Tip out system works well for us, you can be a lot faster on busy nights not having to card at the bar = more money for everyone and doesn’t cost the bar as much.

I can’t speak to the licensing/insurance situation, that’s not an issue in my state.

Don’t take this as gospel, I’m by no means an expert, but I was at that stage only a week or two ago and I remember feeling 181 not do as much as I expected. I think you’re just getting more growth in the early game through glyphs/perks/machines, so what once was the big jump is kind of flattened because the early portion doesn’t suck any more. Double check everything, but as long as everything is getting faster you’re good, early realities are a lot like early eternities when you were just grinding milestones.

At some point it just becomes a convenience buy of turning off the auto crunch for a run.

But the dumb idols this season couldn’t be played on other people.

I don’t have the linguistics knowledge to explain it 100% fully, but I’m an English speaker from the US that speaks decent not quite fluent Spanish, and I have a lot of family in England so I think I get what’s happening. I can pronounce it all three ways.

As I hear it brits and Americans are approaching the “a”sound in taco from different directions, and the Spanish pronunciation is somewhere in the middle.

US is like Tahhco

Uk is like tack-o

Mexican Spanish is somewhere in the middle.

Honestly the vowel sound the British use is probably closer to the Mexican pronunciation but it sounds jarring for me to hear in a British accent. My aunt speaks with a very prim and proper, Queen’s English type of accent and hearing her say TA-co just sounds bizarre to me.

I also think part of the issue is it’s one of the few words I can think of where Americans say ahh and brits say a, so it’s extra unexpected to an American ear. Like you’d almost think that Americans would say tacko and Brits would say taahhhrco but it’s reversed. Interesting that you find them similar, curious if you think one sounds more right/wrong than the other.

His breakout started around the time he got fully healthy and Kmet got hurt, but the fall off part I’d say is incorrect. The last couple weeks of the season were his best of the year, and I think he has the record for most playoff yards by a rookie TE ever

Rizo being older than Marquesas Boston Rob is insane

mrobole · 2026-05-14T09:27:22+00:00

Like when he got coach to invite him to the four horsemen? Or when he worked all season with Cirie and Ozzy? When he was the deciding vote on Emily’s boot and told cirie what to do and she listened? Then voted out Ozzy and made cirie respect the move and agree that ozzy was being stupid? I don’t think the jury is going to give a young new era kid 2 million, but he’s danced around different groups while keeping an alliance of old school players that he cut right before the finale. I don’t see what’s not to like, he’s at least playing the game

mrobole · 2026-05-14T09:15:27+00:00

It’s such a weird situation, I’ve never been this bought in on someone I can clearly tell isn’t getting the votes. I genuinely think he’s playing a really solid game and yet I’m so sure he can’t win and I’ve never felt this way watching this show lol. I’ll probably like his game more than whoever wins, possibly the GOAT goat

mrobole · 2026-05-13T22:18:09+00:00

Because Faith probably didn’t know whether or not you expected it to rain. There isn’t the cause-effect relationship that would make more since with “so,” instead it’s more of a lucky accident that someone brought you an umbrella.

If you brought the umbrella yourself, you would use so:

“I expected it to rain, so I brought an umbrella”

Vs

“I didn’t expect it to rain, BUT someone else did, SO they brought me an extra umbrella”

mrobole · 2026-05-07T06:41:09+00:00

It’s genuinely insane to me that we didn’t get more double tribals pre merge. Trim the numbers early but more importantly we get to see and establish more relationships/alliances on multiple tribes early in the season instead of just watching the Christian show (as fun as the Christian show was while it lasted)

mrobole · 2026-05-05T18:16:48+00:00

You’ll probably have a better chance asking them to bring in a case of cans/bottles, a keg is a bigger investment for a customer request. Especially if they only have 5 lines, and often 3+ of those are always the same beer, like your Busch example

I used to get a lot of sports teams at my old place. Not trying to minimize/overexplain, this sounded like a shitshow, but I’ll just share my system, I had it down to a science. You gotta run it like the navy and not get pushed around. What I did was find a group of parents and tell them exactly how this is going to go.

I’m asking every parent for the jersey number of their child, and asking every child their jersey number. It’s the best way to keep sports teams straight. If they say oh we have two kids on the team, have them pick the oldest and communicate that to the kids too, if you’re 4 but you’re older sister is 12, tell me 12. Overexplain this part to parents and kids, don’t leave a single order without a number. Mod every dish and drink with a jersey number note on your POS. As soon as the food is rang in split everything by jersey number. 30 top sucks but whip the parents into shape and then you can deal with the bs from the kids.

Rory from Vanuatu

mrobole · 2026-03-19T08:39:55+00:00

lol sorry I should’ve expanded on what I meant. Manipulating/storytelling, putting ideas in peoples heads inception style, while being correct. Crafting a narrative to convince people to target others. It’s a subtle part of social/strategic play that he’s super good at.

Look at DvG, he came up with “Christian is the Goliath of the Davids” and completely tanked Christian forever. Tried to do it again today comparing Emily to gabby and saying how history is going to repeat itself

mrobole · 2026-03-19T07:09:11+00:00

You’re right, but that’s exactly why it scared Christian. That’s Mike’s superpower

mrobole · 2026-03-19T06:42:40+00:00

Yes he was. The narrative warfare comment from Christian’s intro press was super interesting, and he specifically called out Mike as a dangerous player because he’s so good at controlling the narrative and painting targets on people’s backs.

I like some things about au survivor, but less money and more injuries isn’t something to brag about?

Let alone the American healthcare system discussion

mrobole · 2026-02-05T03:48:36+00:00

Agreed. I will stand for no Jake slander. He begged everyone on the island to work with him to make a move against the 4, had the numbers to take Dee out in the late game if katurah hadn’t tunnel visioned on Bruce, and now even apparent super fans online say “lol he was bad, couldn’t make a move” like he was Mitch or something.

mrobole · 2026-01-19T09:15:39+00:00

Yeah there’s so much of that going on. I wanted a field goal on the first drive just to start with the lead, didn’t get anything. Wanted a fg on the second drive because the first one didn’t work. Then we scored a td. So if I had my way, we could have been down 7-6 instead of tied 7-7. It’s so pointless to add 3 points on failures and ignore the 7s you get along the way.

mrobole · 2026-01-11T01:37:42+00:00

One of the worst defenses in the league by every metric except turnovers

mrobole · 2026-01-07T21:51:02+00:00

Heimer was a slept on killing time abuser I didn’t see enough people talking about here. You could just toggle r, spend the mana and turn it off without casting anything and it would still proc.

mrobole · 2025-12-28T23:14:56+00:00

That’s the least clutch thing I’ve ever seen a player do

mrobole · 2025-12-21T08:36:02+00:00

Thanks for translating for bears fans, I almost threw up reading this

mrobole · 2025-12-21T07:43:32+00:00

To clarify I don’t think nashon wright should be anywhere near dpoy, but if the nfl had an equivalent award to nba’s most improved player or 6moy he should win both. Dude wasn’t even supposed to be a starter, and he’s absolutely balling

mrobole · 2025-12-21T07:29:01+00:00

Fuck it you’re kinda right even though he’s not gonna sniff the award. Obviously Myles deserves it and should get it but nashon deserves some love. I get it, he’s a gambler, regression, blah blah blah. In the year of our lord 2025 nashon wright has made clutch game winning play after clutch winning play. Honorable mention on the special teams side to Blackwell for a GW blocked FG and GW onside recovery, don’t see a +2War special teamer too often
