That Bartender Really Knew His Shit...

  
The other night I go out for happy hour and now that I have a semi real job I basically just watch other bartenders and examine their skills. I have no real reason for doing this other than that I'm intrigued to see how other people handle being behind the bar. It's not easy to be back there especially when you're dealing with drunk assholes who don't know how to tip because they don't appreciate service. But there is one thing I realize being on the other side of the bar, you always appreciate a good bartender. 

Of course it was open bar so I did what most people don't do, I dropped a twenty dollar bill on the bar as soon as I got there. Two reasons, one because I know how shitty it is to work an open bar and two because now he knows my face and I won't ever have to wait for a refill. Yes, take fucking notes on this people. It has a one hundred percent success rate. Now after I worked the room and had some conversations with people I hung out by the bar, spoke to the bartender and did one of my favorite things in the world, I people watched. I love people watching. You catch a lot of shit that you normally wouldn't if you're not paying attention. 

So I see a guy and a girl having a conversation at the bar. As I'm watching I could see she might be a little interested and he's most likely interested but he's playing it cool because they work together. He was drunk though and dropped the bartender a twenty dollar bill. The bartender like a pro realizes that this dude is spitting some hard game to this chick, says thank you and tells him to take a shot with the girl on the house. What does the bartender pour? Fucking tequila. And not just any tequila, he gives them Patrone. 

This bartender knew his fucking shit. Why? Because every dude and chick on this earth knows that if you want to seal the deal with a girl you buy her tequila. Tequila is the closer, at the end of the night it guarantees you that you're scoring with this chick. There's just something about it that makes them want to take their clothes off. Unreal. So as I was thinking that this dude was an awesome bartender, he confirmed it with that power move of trying to get one of his bros laid. I was impressed because I would have done the same thing. I wouldn't have given patrone, but I would have given tequila to get that guy laid. Plus he had an Irish accent so that made him even cooler.
