I've been working as a bartender since I can remember working. And I have never been rude with nice and polite costumers who were not drunk. On the other hand I always assumed that if you are selling alcohol at some point people is going to get drunk and therefore sometimes annoying. So I’m consequent and always try to be nice till I get pissed for a jerk and then is the time for the security guys to act.
It seems that I was wrong and if you are working as a bartender you have to speak rude to the girls while wearing exaggerated make up. You can ask the girl working at Union pool in 484 union ave, Brooklyn, because she seems to be the queen of the waitressholes. First one friend of mine was kicked of the bar because she asked for 3 shots and finally one of the guys with her didn’t want his so she said ok finally just 2. Everything fine, uh? MEEEC. She got kicked. But I know her and probably she was drunk so I thought it was not such a big deal.
So we finally arrive to last weekend when I was there with some friends, some beers, far away from being drunk (I know it’s funny because I’m always drunk as hell and this day I was perfectly sober) and I went to the bar asking for 3 more beers for me and my mates. I tried to be nice and asked for the 3 beers. There was a lot of noise and I’m not from USA so maybe she couldn’t hear me and she brings me the wrong beers. I told her and all she said was: “I already opened two so you’ll have to pay them”. I remembered my friend. I paid the beers and look at her reciting a curse my grandma told me (inside of my head of course). And now it comes the most incredible thing: she made some puppy-calling weird noise for taking my attention and she claimed for tips. Because she had to pay the other bartenders and the guys at the door and the dj (since this guy is her boyfriend I’m impress she has to pay him). (Plus, hello? are you the owner miss Ihavetopay?) and she kept on talking while I watched her mouth move bla,bla,bla…
At the Union pool’s BlogSpot they put a big PLEASE DON’T BE STUPID at the end of the title. Just like that.
