I met a friend I hadn't seen in ~12 years in bars two nights in a row this week.

One of my semi-regulars is a local cop who got obliterated last night. While he was working on that, every story he told was about getting obliterated in the D.R. on vacation, getting obliterated in Mexico on vacation, getting obliterated at a buddy's house, helping another buddy get obliterated on his 21st birthday, etc. He took it reasonably well when I cut him off but I'll have my guard up with him from now on. Also, the fucker tipped 5% on a $124 tab.

I'm going to avoid going to the bar tonite so I don't ruin the weekend.
I've only worked the door a few times, but I keep a match at the side of my mouth.. to look far tougher than I actually am

^ Love them. Love when people make a fuss around me behind my back, making everything just right. Especially love when they mop the floor around my feet.

The next time a bartender I haven’t seen in awhile asks me where I’ve been, I’m just going to say “Nepal”

My bartender friend just got laid off. I saw him at the other bar, he was smashed

There weren’t enough coat hooks under the bar because the lady on her laptop couldn’t move down one seat despite having the space so I put my coat on a seat and some douche spilled beer on it and venmod me $30
― calstars, Friday, 16 December 2022 02:13 (one year ago) link
I have a lot of issues with coats and bars. I can’t put my coat on the stupid hook underneath the bar because my coat is long and it will drape onto the floor. So people always say, put your coat over the seat. Well fuck that, I don’t want strangers sitting on my coat. I respect my garments. I think less of any bar, and especially any restaurant, that doesn’t have normal coat hooks or a coat rack. Unacceptable!
― Josefa, Friday, 16 December 2022 03:38 (one year ago) link
Wait why would strangers be sitting on your coat if it's on your seat
― change display name (Jordan), Friday, 16 December 2022 04:46 (one year ago) link
You step away from it for a moment for whatever reason and then someone will just sit down on it. Some people never look down or just disregard whatever is on the seat they want to sit down on.
