our bartenders have to be BASSET certified (alcohol server training), as well as food sanitation certified, even though we don't serve food. for a job that, in many cases, they will work maybe 2 days per week for a couple hundred bucks. it's pretty fucked.

just left a meeting with the state's attorney. he tossed the bartender's ticket. no sucking off necessary! now to see if i can work the same magic on the state liquor control folks...

Yeah, just got caught in a bad moment. Shitty thing is, she figured it out and corrected it before the bust ever happened. But the sale was already complete so it was too late. I might be able to get the bartender's ticket tossed because I'm in pretty good with the state's attorney, but our fine will come directly from liquor control. Probably no chance of getting that one dropped.

It was slow and she had no excuse. The red bar is on these ones too, but she apparently didn't look at it. Ours also has a yellow bar for under 18, and they can get a little confusing with all that info crammed on them.

indeed we do scoob. the minor's id showed a date of 10/24/98. so it's within the grace period of 3 months post-21st bday, when your math is off by a year. we have lots of people come in with their vertical id's who are 21 because they just recently turned and haven't updated their id.

i don't like to manage thru fear. it loses its effectiveness in a cash business, where an unhappy employee can literally rob you blind.

she's made me a lot of money. she's actually one of our better bartenders. even the good ones fuck up occasionally.

i think that sign above the register is what prompted her to rethink the math she used.

probably not. if my fine is $500, that's still cheaper than sending all my bartenders through a training course. this achieves that goal without the extra hassle. chalk it up to a learning experience, throw a ticket fund party, and move on with life.

yep, and we're pretty good about carding and watching for hand-offs, etc. this was just an example of a good bartender making a mistake.

state liquor control decided to run an underage sting tonight. bartender checked the id's but did her math wrong, served the two kids, and as she was going to ring up the sale, her brain apparently decided to start working. she went back to check the id's again, and this time figured out the kids were minors. so she took the beers back and told them she'd go get their money back. but by then it was too late. so now the bartender is on the hook for a fine anywhere from $500-2,500 and so is the bar. i'm gonna walk across the street to the state's attorney office in the morning, and put my dick sucking skills to work in the hopes i can get the charge dropped since the bartender fixed her mistake before the bust even took place. i'm not confident, but it's our only violation in the 12 years i've been there, so maybe we'll get a little lenience. but probably not.

fucking elitist steak eaters, thinking their method is the best method. wife likes hers blue at home but usually orders rare/med.rare when we go out. i take mine medium when i have the choice, but i'll eat it anywhere on the spectrum except for straight-up rare. we don't keep a1 in the house as a general rule, and will normally only season with salt and pepper unless it's a cheap cut that requires a little extra help.

got that tetrafecta with this post...but i'm gonna let it expire without screenshot. i am a gracious god.

as long as i manage to keep the cat piss smell in check, i feel like i'm winning the war. i don't mind a little disorder, as long as it's a clean mess.

i feel like i'm supposed to tell you to chew before you swallow, but then the innuendo kicks in and the thought of getting my dick chewed on...fuck.

organ meat raw shellfish there's a golden corral in the next town over. never been to one, and someone was just telling the wife over the weekend to avoid it because it's gone downhill. i can't imagine it's any worse than ponderosa.

eh, whatever. between my day job and the bar, we bring home plenty to cover our expenses, and still have enough left over for burning on non-essentials. no bridge-bottom-blowies required to pay the utility bills over here.

right? that playstation stuff costs $80 a month. on top of like $12 for netflix and however much for hulu. i talked her into canceling her spotify premium, but she followed it up with xm radio. meh, she's paying for it herself, so whatever.

i don't even really want prime tv, but it's just a part of the package when you want the shipping. wife has had netflix since it was disc only, and she added hulu like 5 years ago for some reason. then she got the ps vue because she missed live tv. and then she upgraded it to the SUPERMAXX package with all the premiums because pirating game of thrones wasn't cutting it with her. and she won't cancel any of them because ... i dunno why. i guess i also pay for the amazon unlimited music thing because it's handy when i'm "deejaying" at the bar. but that's pretty much a business expense.

i have amazon prime. wife decided it was worth it to pay for netflix, hulu, and ps vue. i dunno.

you should really just toss the whole thing in the trash and get a new one.

obvious comparisons to beavis in 3... 2...

metropolis, il is pretty close by...

it was more of a ball when it first showed up
