’TIS THE SEASON TO BEHAVE: HOW TO NOT BE A DICK AT YOUR COMPANY PARTY

Written by HALEY HAMILTON Posted December 6, 2017 Filed Under: COLUMNS, Drinks, LIFESTYLE, Terms of Service

People who think it’s okay to tip badly also generally behave like assholes, and not tipping at an open bar, where you are drinking whatever you want for free, says loud and clear that you, my friend, are just that.

BAR HAVOC: JUST ANOTHER NIGHT

Written by ddevelop Posted December 31, 2014 Filed Under: Bar Havoc, COLUMNS, LIFESTYLE

For bartenders the appeal and general concept of New Year’s Eve is completely lost. It’s certainly more than just another night, but we don’t get to enjoy it the way the rest of the world does.

BAR HAVOC: OF BOOZE AND BARF

Written by ddevelop Posted October 21, 2014 Filed Under: Drinks, Eats, Uncategorized

There are a handful of sounds that exist in the universe that only bartenders understand. Our ears are trained to pick these things up from just a few feet off to entire rooms away.
