350 People, 3 Waitress’, and one bartender…
Wow, what a fuckin’ night …
I’m helpin the folks out — bartending at the resort. We’re having a “reunion show” for a band that used to play here back when I was 15 years old…
Little did I know that 350 people would show up…
The first 3 hours … Well, I couldn’t tell ya much about them. I was too busy filling 15-drink orders from 3 girls while I was trying to pay attention to the 20-30 people ordering drinks at the bar. Fuckin’ bedlam — I seriously didn’t even realize the band was playing ’til they were half way through their second set.
Once I got into the rythm of things, I realized there was an insane world of activity going on around me … Even managed to jump over the bar and get between a couple of guys gettin’ ready to throw down, before it actually happened… But there really was a solid couple of hours where I became a drink making machine — Nothing but pour, pour, pour …
8 hours and, nearly $4000 in drink sales later, I’m sittin’ here chatting with Capital “R” trying to get a grasp on what had just happened… By my figures, I opened over 500 beers and mixed just as many drinks … All the while, not drinking a single ounce of alcohol … Well, ’til It was 30 minutes to closing. Then I finally let myself crack open my first beer — for me.
Ah, fuckit — so much more to talk about right not… but the dogs are barkin’ … it’s 3 hours past closing time and I am SPENT! Maybe I’ll post a more accurate rundown in the morning (afternoon) …
G’Night all!
P.S. — If you ain’t the staff and if you ain’t fuckin’ the staff — go the fuck home.
