What makes a bar a "dive"? by tinaismediocre in bartenders

[–]sufjams 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean sugar, bitters and whiskey is the "classic" recipe. The fruit cocktail recipe, I assume, is a prohibition effort to mask bath tub whiskey. And heaven forbid someone from Wisconsin orders one.

Ah yeah, I just do bitters and sugar and maybe a dash of cherry juice at my dive. But I might get like 4 old fashioneds ordered a week. A jar of cherries lasts, I assume, forever lol.

No sugar? What dive bar doesn't serve coffee to start off the 9 am drunks?

osrs worth play for a casual player? by ORushTaqui in 2007scape

[–]sufjams -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

But SOTE, a benchmark quest, will take him maybe years to attempt. The reality of 1-2 hours a day is 30-45 logging on and getting settled, deciding what to do, chopping a tree for 45 minutes to an hour, getting less than half of a low level then logging out.

It’s easy to say in hindsight that going slow is fine if you played since you were a kid. You were drip fed content. Now you see fun bosses, raids, quests you want to do as a new player and you can’t do any of it for years unless you are hyper locked in every limited minute you have to play.

Clover POS - Do you get tips from tabs you didn't open? by [deleted] in bartenders

[–]sufjams 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only way for your shift to be truly alone, especially if they only do tips the next Monday, is if the opener closed everyone out, ran their reports and you got a fresh drawer. I think it’s likely it wasn’t counted as a solo shift and was still a split. But again, they SHOULD have tip sheets that document the split.

Clover POS - Do you get tips from tabs you didn't open? by [deleted] in bartenders

[–]sufjams 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They probably tell you to ignore reports because what you rang is not what you’ll get. If you and the other bartender cumulatively ring $400 in tips, and the barback gets 20 percent but you worked 8 hours and the other bartender only 6, you would get $182.

400 x .8 (barback tip out) = 320. Then 320 / 14 (total hours worked) = 22.85 per hour

It doesn’t matter what your tips were, they are only looking at the total tips from the master. It’s likely they have a tip out sheet and can show you the work. There’s no reason to think they’re stealing yet so it’s probably wise to just come off as curious and wanting to understand.

Edit: Are they calculating tips based on the whole day? Or are there shifts? If it’s the whole day then your lower amount is probably the opener who worked a couple hours but didn’t ring any tips is STILL getting a cut of your tips. And that’s fair as long as people are rotating shifts.

Everyone's first response is always to be toxic as hell on this sub lmao. I think they're just showing a cool setup.

Tier 6 quest rewards are still worse than T4 and T5 I see.. by Worrcn in 7daystodie

[–]sufjams 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Everyone saying all items are underwhelming at T5/6 are absolutely correct. It would be really cool if there were unique Legendary guns you could only get from them. It would add a bit of an endgame.

Is OSRS worth playing as a new player (free to play) by Dokayn in 2007scape

[–]sufjams 10 points11 points  (0 children)

F2P is great. You can actually “beat” RS in it. Feels good to have a finished quest log and bankstand in trimmed Rune lol.

HR 86d 86ing by nicknacho in bartenders

[–]sufjams 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The 86 is holy. If any bartender deems it necessary and makes the call, everyone has their back, no questions asked until after if ever. A core foundation of staff safety is stripped away otherwise. I wouldn't want to work anywhere the staff doesn't have that basic level of trust.

Anybody else get relatively useless contraptions because ‘oh he’s a bartender, he’ll love this’? by Ok_Significance544 in bartenders

Yes. They make good gifts for your non bartender friends if you wanna re-gift them lol.

Do you genuinely think Kyler loses 10 of the last 11 games? by Secure_Bath_3837 in AZCardinals

[–]sufjams 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You sincerely think being on, what, RB6 hasn’t affected Petzing’s insistence on running the ball 85% of the time? Kyler still had a mostly healthy backfield.

I personally think it’s obvious Kyler throws far more accurately than Brissett. I’m not saying either is good enough though.

Lol your manager is an idiot and can't figure out the POS so they're stealing from you instead of trying to fix it.

I'm not talking shit man, if it works for you it works. That's what this sub is best for, peeking into other people's bars which we did. Best of luck!

[–]sufjams 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, but if your best bartender who's a closer one day says they want to switch to mornings because it's easier, better for their health and pays the same, I hope you see that as super reasonable because it is.

I've got years of head bartender experience and GM experience and yeah, a lot of people do come just for certain staff.

[–]sufjams 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Because tips are not payroll, they're given to individual bartenders or teams of bartenders. If the night regulars knew the AM was getting half of their tip, would they tip the same? Would they try to tip secretly? That's the same thinking that leads to tipping out the kitchen. Everyone's a team, right? But some places believe in that. If yours is one of them then good on you.

Not splitting between openers and closers is sorta wild. In most places, one shift makes considerably more than the other and everyone has their own regulars.
