There is not a server of bartender out there who wants you splitting checks.  Obviously it's going to happen sometimes, but at least try and keep it to a minimum.  But here we are crapping all over the entire idea.

Even in ye olden times people just had to complain about an expensive turkey leg and throw rotten tomatoes at someone.  Bill also talks about... somethings.  And we are getting hammered on MEAD!

What is your Zen?  For Samantha it's rolling silverware at the end of the shift.  Meanwhile Bill and I chug Mountain Dew.

Flirting is a pretty natural thing we all do.  I mean how else are we supposed to get that first kiss, land a partner, or if you're in the service industry... get those phat tips?!  However, ladies and gents, we are not trying to steal your man, woman, or werewolf.  So keep your crappy reviews to yourself.  

Oh and below are some of the links Samantha mentions in this episode.  Enjoy!

This one came hot off the internet.  Some people really just like to throw around their stupidity for no one else's benefit.  If you're going to say that something is illegal, maybe you should know if that thing is actually illegal.  Up up and away on outta here Super Karen. 

Finally Episode 2 is released after episode 12!  This was recorded back in December 2021.  It was our first attempt at using Squadcast and Brad wasn't happy with the sound quality.  However, there's some really good stuff in this episode AND we won't get a chance to record again until later this week.  Plus, Bill and Samantha keep screaming "More Content."  So without further ado... Here is Season 3 Episode 2!

We love when owners stand up for their people.  We love this Behind Bars with Bill.  We love recording two episodes in one day.  And we apparently love Aperol Spritzezzzz!

Bill has some good gems in his notes and the concept of using "Humor as a Weapon" is no exception.  We've all certainly done it and it is without question one the best tools that makes an all around good bartender or server.  Oh and apparently Bill discovered a new beer from Bootstrap Brewing that's infused with pickle juice.  YES PICKLE JUICE!!!

What does the 'E' stand for?  Well go ahead and give this episode a listen.  We go from riding a high in our last episode to riding a whole other high in this one.  Chuck E. Cheese, PBR, Irish Breakfast, and... a secret ingredient...or not so secret.

Let's get this straight.  Service industry employees are not "servants."  Are we here to serve?  Absolutely.  Will we often go out of our way to cater to your needs?  Certainly.  However, we are not in servitude and we are most definitely not here to be disrespected by the likes of one Amy S. in Denver, Co.
