Don't call it a comeback.

I am back. I've taken sometime off, I still bar tend, I still LOVE it. (sarcasm) but really, its not terrible. Just terrible people that cant handle their booze. The worst is the people who think they can, but really they just can not.

Anyways, in my time away I've done lots of traveling, drinking, eating, concert seeing, and so much more. but i am back now to my regular blog post. (fingers crossed)

I am back to being bitchy me, serving drinks, living life, and music. Oh and the resting bitch face is real life. i feel like i always have my rbf on. 

Cheers!!!!!!

indy bars. yes please

so while i was in Indianapolis this weekend i noticed a few things different than our little hole in the wall town usa... the first thing i noticed is they smoke in their bars.( wwhich is a downfall for me because i am not a smoker)  but i also noticed it did not smell like smoke. which was awesome.. i dont know if it was just more ventilated or what.. because i would totally notice if it were a heavy smoke... but no it was nice... another thing i noticed.. covers were everywhere. we were lucky enough to not go into a bar with a cover. we stayed cleared.  but we stopped by a one that had a 10 cover.. absolutely not.... 

we went to this sushi bar which i would recommend to anyone.. the sushi was sooooo good.and the servers and managers were great. it is called sushi on the rocks... so if you are ever in Indianapolis go there.. its soooo good. it was so clean (along with all the other bars)  .

over all indy was so much fun... the city is clean and it is not busy with cars i noticed. it was easy to travel and venture through.. so check it out. plus i heard they have the best zoo ever.
 and the hotel we stayed in gave out complimentary 'drinks' from 5-7 on fridays and saturdays.. that was super awesome....

dirty bar crawl

well apparently i lied about being better at keeping up with my blog.. but i really have been busy the past 2 weeks..... between bday celebrations, working and keeping up with a puppy who has a sleep schedule of a newborn i have not had much time!!!!  ok now i really will be better...

so last sat i did not work. i was out celebrating my bday with some friends.. yes i did go out and drink a few drinks..  Monday was my actual real bday! so one of my friends got me a limo( fun) it was just a normal stretch limo no hummer or suv limo... it was white.. classy i know.. .. and the lady who was driving it... she was even classier! she was about 50ish.. super 80s white hair and she had tappered leg jeans... not skinny jeans, tappered! and she drove about 25 mph no matter what the speed limit. so needless to say the 20 bar we were suppose to go to never happened. we ended up hitting about 8. mainly because she had nooooo clue where anything was even with gps telling her where to go.and she passed a few places too.. she was relying in the drunk passengers to tell her how to get to places..
on top of that she had to get out and use the restroom at every bar we stopped by...
either way, i had fun. most everyone else had fun..
this is the fun things we do during summer..

we basically hit up all the hole in the wall bars, the bars we would usually never step foot in and any other bars that is  considered "dirty"

they get it from their momma!

most kids learn a lot from their parents. such as driving, political views, mannerism and tipping.... so as long as i have worked at a college bar, just assuming these kids are on a budget or they have never worked in the industry before they really do not tip well... at all!! and when i mean not well i mean they are reaching for their .25 cents from a $4.75 drink..(thanks)  but after this last week and it being graduation weekend, i have now found out they learn it from their parents. so after serving many parents not only food, but drinks as well and them racking up $60 and $75 dollars on a tab, they decide to tip me $5 bucks... that is not even close to 20 %....
i feel like i can no longer be mad at these college kids for not tipping me, i now need to gear  my anger towards their freaking parents... why do people even go out if they cant afford to tip.. really...sometimes i really wish gratuity was added when you order 5 drinks or more....and every time i run a credit card i really need to get payed for that as well.. it is such a pain, especially at the end of the night when you have to add them all and decipher every drunks horrible handwriting,
lesson of the day! tip well. your servers and bartenders will love you way more! and if its me i will treat you way better!

its my birthday , do i get a free drink?

it never fails, at least once a weekend someone comes up to me and says something along the lines like its my birthday, can i get a free drink...always.... so my response as always is: what did you get me on my birthday? did you get me anything.. i dont think you did, so why would i buy you a drink?.  of course they get all huffy puffy and pissed off. but i mean hell i am responsible for paying for  any free drinks that go across the bar.. and if i dont know you really why would i even remotely get you a drink especially when i am 99%  sure you wont even tip me. 

on a brighter note.. if i do know you, and i like you of course ill get you a birthday shot..   or even a beer or whatever.. especially if you tip me...

why i brought this subject up is because some dbag 21 year old boy came in.. his friend bought him a shot of patron.. and of course the tool spilt a $7 shot. and immediately asked for another free one.. hell no i am not giving you a $7 shot. i dont even buy $7 shots for myself... let alone some dumb kid..so after i told him no... he got a jack and coke.. ok thats $5.25. what i cant even get a discount.. ill show you my id.. no you cant now your bill just went up to $5.75 .. 

oh birthdays!!!!

boobies and more boobies

so this is a tale from a bouncer... yes i know not a bartender, but sometimes you have to get other peoples stories....

most girls with big boobs have a hard time wearing certain clothing.. well certain clothing mean halter tops and the one shoulder sleeve. not to mention strapless bras are horrible... well anyways.. girl has this one shoulder sleeve shirt on... and shes out on the floor dancing her little heart out.... not a care in the world...and all of a sudden ... pop... out pops a boobie...and she just kept dancing ...after a few seconds her friend of all people realized pushed it back in her shirt.. but not before about 40 people saw it....and its on video.. hahah.. morale of the story... wear clothes appropriate for your body.,

easter weekend

so being on a college campus our main business is of course college students! so in the summer, or on breaks we usually are significantly less busy. which is fine because it gives me time to chat with my friends and kinda hang out... but when the college is gone. the weirdos come out.. the just know its in the air.. oh my god wittenberg left, so we must got to the bar.

well either way, they are still the townies, which i am from town so i know what its like to be defines as a townie.. but lets talk about the 'south side townies' who come in . their pants are to their freaking ankles, their awesome flat brims are crisp and new.. and the got that $20 bill wrapped around a bunch of $1 dollar bills burning a whole in their pocket.... ...these are the townies i dont particularly care for.. they think they are high class thugs... and its so annoying. they say like 'yo', 'hey baby' or some other obnoxious saying from a rap video adn then want the same drinks from a rap video like goose or patron or tanqueray. so ridic.. anyways the only good part about these townies are most are servers so SOME know how to tip....

are you hungover or are you prego?






how do you know if you are hungover?? here are the top reasons on how to know if you are hungover and not prego!!!!






1. you wake up still drunk....



2. you have the headache from hell..



3. your mouth is so dry water doesnt do the trick right away



4. the sunlight "burns" your eyes when you stumble out of your room...



5. crying kids, barking dogs, or anything else that makes noise is 10 times louder than usual



6. throwing up (this could mean you are prego, get a test)



7. being super tired



8. you could seriously drink a gallon of anything at this point!



9. you could have loss of appetite, or go the other route and want to bash food



10. the poops..






now do i need to put symptoms of being prego. i know some of these could mean prego, but most likely if you went out drinking heavily the night before its defiantly a hangover. now if you did not go out drinking go see a doctor... you are probably prego.

ten little things

so after years of being a bartender i have decided to let everyone know ten little things a bartender wants from her customers!!! (at least me) so lets pay attention here! 10. know what you want before you come to the bar to place your order! i dont want to have to wait for you and your friends to talk about what they want.. i have other people to serve. 9. TIP... when it cost you $4.75 please dont wait for your quarter. its a freaking quarter. you cant even buy gum with it anymore. i would like that and maybe even a dollar.. tip your bartender or they will not be nice to you and sometimes will not even serve you. 8. dont ask me to make it "extra "strong.. you are going to get it how i make every other drink... especially if you do not tip.... if i dont know you why the hell would i want to make your drink extra special. 7. if you do not know what drink you ordered last time dont say that one drink... do you know how many drinks i know how to make. a ton.. so that one drink could mean anything to me. 6. if you are not 21 do not come to the bar and try to order. do not take a drink off the bar. most likely i do not know you and you are not worth me getting in trouble for . be smart and go away from the bar and drink. stupid kids. 5. wait your turn.... dont yell "HEY" and my name or anything else.. it will not get your served any faster. in fact i may take my time to serve you now.. 4. know exactly how many drinks or shots you want before i start making it.. its really a pain in the ass to make 1 shot.... 3. please open a tab... i hate hate hate running credit cards.. it takes my time up . and they are a bitch to add at the end of the night. if you open a tab means less credit cards 2. please and thank you goes a long way.. 1. be nice... dont argue with me.. chances are you are drunk and i am sober.. you are never right.. i am always right. the golden rule people. your parents should have taught you that. when you are nice to me.. i am going to be a hell of a lot nicer to you and be quicker to serve you...

the masters is on


its that time.. golf time.. the masters is on. so all day long ive had to watch golf... listen to golf, and talk golf..... it does get old after awhile.. its just not an exciting sport to watch.. dont get me wrong i do like to play it.. when i drink.... but as i have been watching this i notice a player... and apparently hes super young and super good.... and he is the talk of the bar all day long... and like i said before i am not any kind of golf expert at all.... but it still baffles me that yet again someone way younger than me will make more on this tourny than i will make in my life.. dammit. i always thought i should have started playing golf early on... just think i could have played golf in college and paid way less im pretty sure.. and even pursued it after.. they always need and want women players.... for any sport.... i would even design my own golf clothing line.. well you just wait.. when i have kids they are starting golfing right when they walk... just wait... my kid will be the next mcllory...
