I mean bartenders are unironically useless. If there was a machine that dispensed highballs I would much rather prefer that than leaning over the counter for 20 minutes waiting for my drink while the bartender flirts with some girl.
- unethical_ban 3y agoWell, you're going to the wrong bars!
- grotted 3y agoLast weekend I got free beers for knowing the band on a bartender's shirt. We shot the shit about music while I waited for my friends. Made my day. Pubs started as "public houses". What's the point if you don't know the regulars? Why go out? Imagine Cheers with robo Ted Dansen. (Actually, that might be awesome, for very different reasons...)
- longtimelistnr 3y agoBeing a regular (at any local business but especially bars) is an extremely fulfilling feeling. Also very good for ones social health to be active in their community.
- unethical_ban 3y agoAbsolutely. I get comped drinks a lot at the places I go. In the past seven days, I have gotten five free drinks (three of them were mocktails) across four places. I sit at my usual wine bar and chuckle watching across the street, people standing in line for 30 minutes to get into a loud club with mediocre drinks. Then again, that club is hugely profitable.
