- That girl you were feelin' and got a # from? She comes in twice a week and goes home with a different guy everytime.
- That girl you bought a drink for? She already had 3 different guys buy her drinks before you got there. (the trick is to be the last one

)
- Even though they aren't supposed to, a good amount of bartenders drink on the job. that soda they're drinking? half full of rum.
- Don't act up. you'll be kicked out IMMEDIATELY. nobody wants to be held accountable for your %$+. vomit? GONE. put your head down? GONE. fall asleep? GONE. If you are a chick, we'll call a cab and get you home. a dude? you're getting dragged out. and don't resist or talk %##* either, it's your drunk word against the establishment. yeah, no chance. unfortunately a couple of our door guys abuse this, never thrown any blows though.
- If our boss is drunk or gone, it's on as far as drinking

one of the bartenders was giving us tall jack and cokes half filled with whiskey

we were thrashed, that's including shots customers took with us that night

- I try my best to be polite, but if i've got a tray full of dirty glasses and i've had to ask you 4 times to move already that night, it's going right into your back. I won't have to ask again.
- Only seen ONE big fight while i've been there, some dude was hitting on a guys wife, got ran up on, other guy hits him, wife gets in the way and gets Snookied. royal rumble starts

CRAZY. tables falling over, glass everywhere, chick was gushing blood from her nose. Thankfully that hasn't happened in awhile.

is the "no drinking" just a policy at your bar or pretty universal?

NTers will probably flame me for it, but whether the bartender is a guy or girl, if they are cool I enjoy buying an extra shot for them to join in on the festivities.  Should I refrain from doing so in the future?  I don't want to get anyone in trouble.

I may have posted in this thread already...but I'm not checking, nor do I remember.

Sears:

- Never buy into those credit cards. We're only selling them to you because we get commission. Any money saved by buying a TV with a Sears Card will go right back to Sears because of the interest on the card. VERY blatant scam.
- Don't ask for the "hook up." Only people who can change the prices are managers. I can't help you.
- Don't buy electronics from Sears. You can get em WAY cheaper damn near everywhere else.
- If you're cool, I'll look up the lowest price for whatever you're trying to buy and send you to the store where you can get it
- If you're mean, I'll actively search for a way to make you pay the highest possible price.

Animal Hospital:

- If you have a poorly trained pet, I will treat it like #*!% most of the time. (last to get bathed, walked, fed)
- If you have a well trained pet, I take extra care of it (extra food and stuff...hell, I might let it walk around the kennel and play with it

)
- Don't leave beds or blankets with your pet...it WILL get lost. I was thousands of blankets a day...I have no time to keep track of yours.
- You may think I take extra care of your dead pet...in reality, after we kill it (put it to sleep), I sling it into a black garbage back and throw it into a freezer until the cremation guy comes and picks it up. I've actually broken a couple pets' bones on accident when removing them from the freezer.
- I even slap/punch especially nippy dogs. Yes, I may have punched your precious Chihuahua or Pomeranian.
- There have been times when I've trained a few dogs to do tricks in my spare time on the job. Only for the nice ones, though.
- If your dog is overly aggressive and you leave him/her/it at the hospital and it attacks one of us...you might as well kiss it goodbye. We're killing it.

That's all I can think of.

 

[speakup23]

 
After reading this thread, I need to start doing/ learning to do some of these things on my own (Growing my own crops, building my own electronics and cars, learn how to be a master chef, etc). Some of you people/your coworkers are lazy and disgusting $$@*#.

I liked this thread better when it was about sharing actual information instead of a bunch of opinions and how you disrespect people at work.

Are you flat rate or hourly? How long have you been a mechanic?

I heard a good way to get cheap electronics from Sears, is to buy it, return it, then have a friend buy "the opened box"
heard they give you like 30% off at this point
do they still do this?
obviously works best if you have an employee holding the items for you.

pretty universal. but our bartenders take shots with customers all the time, and customers even buy some to take with me and the door guys.

Best believe you are getting stronger drinks than anyone else in the bar. And naw, you won't get them in trouble.

Here’s a list of things I’m going to do:

1. Take a stack of $20 bills, and make a roll of toilet paper out of them.
2. Buy one of those European toilets that spray your +#$ with the water.
3. Travel the world SOLELY to taste food.
4. Go to Asian countries to see if the women really be feenin for black guys.
5. Go to a lesser developed country with American dollars so I can feel like a baller.
6. Move to some part of Europe.
7. Purchase a hostel.
8. Start an orphanage.
9. Have some more kids.

Not necessarily in that order…

Here's a pic of the entire dealership The big building in the rear is the parking garage, body shop, Luxe Collection, and Express Service.

I'm pretty sure that whole list is a joke, though.
I mean, he said he wanted to use $20 as toilet paper...
