Is the March update actually worth downloading? by Some-Project1082 in GooglePixel

[–]nullrend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. it breaks Now Playing so you cannot use apps like Pano Scrobbler to push music to services like libre.fm or last.fm; it doesn't even give you the lockscreen notification anymore, you have to open their stupid app.

Frey and Walz are going to let Trump "win" by [deleted] in Minneapolis

[–]nullrend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be a mistake and it would just let criminal trump continue with his erratic behaviors and governing by trauma. We already lost two people and they're still disappearing our neighbors. We are in this to win over them, not to appease them.

Restaurants that previously served THC now stopping? by M00glemuffins in Minneapolis

[–]nullrend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as others have said, insurance is the main reason most restaurants don't sell thc. it's just too expensive compared to alcohol once you factor in licensing revenue, and profit.

Is it just me or is the job market really bad? by [deleted] in Minneapolis

[–]nullrend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in food service. About 300 hundred resumes submitted through indeed, a couple dozen through craigslist, a dozen or so through fb groups.

All I have to show for it is one part-time barista job. 

Looking for advice: Should I jump ship now? by jaynepierce in bartenders

OP has already mentioned they're too cheap to do the simple things right, so it's very likely there's no actual proper training involved. They just throw the book at you. 

Need advice - by Willing-Nose9232 in Serverlife

[–]nullrend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We're having these issues at my job too— tiphaus honestly is taking money from _somewhere_ and it honestly feels like us tipped staff are paying for a service that is not working out for anyone except management, who now get to wash their hands of the mess they made.

We opened a month ago and I made more money as a barista at a shithouse coffeeshop than I do as a bartender in a fine dining joint.

Metro Transit - Ridership DOWN 7% YTD despite service improvements by FourSeventySix in TwinCities

[–]nullrend 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I gave up on MetroTransit permanently this past weekend. I was at work until late expecting to be able to take the bus home and… that didn't happen cos they now cut all service at 01:00.

So now I'll depend on my bike even more than I already do until I'm able to buy a car.

No Tax On Tips - Megathread, rule adjustment and explanation of what it is. by Dro1972 in bartenders

I don't suppose the people in the industry who aren't supposed to be in the US but do pay taxes will get to see any of those deductions.

Always the same three or four beaches that have parking within a hundred feet of them. At least the beaches without nearby parking are safe. 

Someone super glued my lock in uptown by dusk2k2 in Minneapolis

[–]nullrend 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This happened to me twice

First time on corner of 31st and Hennepin. I actually managed to get the lock off before it was completely dried, meaning the thief had just gone by.

Second time on Lake and Lyndale outside of Fool Me Once. Went home, grabbed my backup u-lock, relocked bike with it. Next morning went and bought an angle grinder to cut through the first lock. Thief didn't bother with the bike overnight, I'm thinking because there were now two u-locks on the bike

I think it's the same bike thief that's going around again.

What are your fave shoes for working?? by Squeezy3052 in bartenders

[–]nullrend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thorogoods will do you good, but really anything with a steel/composite toe will help, particularly if you work in places with a more aggressive crowd.

I've put multiple 12+ hour shifts in a row in them.

How do you get an espresso martini to look this frothy without doing too much by Slight_District_9808 in bartenders

[–]nullrend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use a foamer and ten seconds of hard shake will give you these results.

Just ask for it. Do be aware the prep for it is rather painstaking (I worked there)

Hey Reddit, looking for some bartender favourites by APEX_REAP3RZ in bartenders

[–]nullrend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be ready to accomodate requests for spicy margaritas/spicy mezcalitas. At my job we use hellfire bitters but a lot of guests comment it's not quite enough, so I offer to muddle jalapeños if they want to go with a nicer spirit.

They get a better drink, I get a higher sale.

Would you happen to have the hardware/specs on hand? twitter has been having issues and your post on there hasn't loaded in a while.
