[Free drinks] The best way to get a drink or shot for free is being someone who comes in often and tips us well.

I always remember people that tip big, and I always get 'em a shot or buy 'em a drink.

Like, get to know them when it's not super busy.

Like, we're more likely to share a drink with them.

The worst way to get a free drink is to ask for one.

By the way, I can give you other stuff for free other than free drinks.

A lot of times I will get you free food or snacks, something like french fries.

Asking for no ice or less ice does not change the other ingredients of the drink.

You're literally just getting less ice, which is exactly what you asked for.

I don't know, less ice just means disappointment most of the time.

It means you get less in the cup or you get a smaller cup.

Unless you tip and then that changes everything.

When customers ask for, like, a stronger drink,

I just put, like, two or three drops in the straw,

It kinda burns the back their throat real quick.

The amount we put of alcohol will be the same no matter what you ask.

or you can have the cup full of ice and then it's less mixer,

which will make the flavor of the alcohol stronger.

Sounds like they want something strong, but they don't wanna pay for it.

If you want a strong drink just order a double.

"Yes, I see you, you're there, there's people that are also here waiting for my attention."

When people say, "Oh, just fix me something like, your favorite drink to have."

No, what I like is not necessarily what you're gonna like,

not necessarily what your best friend's gonna like,

Most of the time I'm just gonna end up giving you a vodka soda with a splash of cranberry.

or do anything obnoxious, anything that like, you as a human being would find annoying,

If you snap at me, you're not getting served.

It's always the people that, like, schmooze you, those are the worst tippers.

Your compliments and, like, your love for me,

[Getting a Bartender's attention] The best way to get a bartender's attention is to look at them and smile.

It's like, I mean, when you meet somebody for the first time.

The best way is just to look like you're ready.

Most of the time, bartenders are standing in their section of the bar to see who's ready and who's not.

So we're always looking for you, don't worry.

If you stand there, waiting, catch my eye.

Make sure I saw you and then you're good.

Nobody's gonna say no to, like a handshake with something in it.

If they did a really bad job and you didn't have a lot of fun give ten percent.

If they were fine and you were kind of okay give fifteen percent.

And if they did a good job and you had a good time, you should give a twenty percent tip.

I can finish a whole bottle of Jamison before I even sell one.

Drink what you wanna drink and if I can make it, I'll make it good.
