Do bartenders actually talk to people about their woes and events happening in their life?
I've been thinking of getting a job as a bartender at a calm bar somewhere in the city where I live just because it's always seemed like a /comfy/ sort of job and I could use the money. I've always been interested in hearing about people's problems and issues in life so it'd really make the job worth it if bartenders actually did have conversations with their customers.
Any bartenders here have any advice they can to share? It'd be really appreciated
No, in fact most women bartenders are openly mean to me. Male bartenders can be cool but they're not interested in conversation.
depends how busy it is, most city bars you won't even have time to piss during your 8 hour shift let alone talk to anyone. I suppose if you work in a bar in the middle of no where then you'll get to know the regulars but as they are most likely alcoholics then it will generally be the same stories from them every night about how they almost became famous/worked a very successful job but lost it all in the recession/their bitch wife left them/complaining about muslims or immigrants.
No, most bartenders are young normies these days
Anon becoming a bartender isnt going to be like VA-11 Hall-A. Not unless the world literally becomes a cyberpunk dystopia where the uneducated dont exist.
Sorry to break it to ya bud. But can I get you a drink?

bars and clubs are too corporate and normie theme park now. bartenders there are only interested in being tools sucking up only to famous people. maybe if you grew up in a small town the bartender might give a shit about who goes in and out.

So you're saying it's not the /comfy/ job I've been seeing in the media? Well that's a surprise I guess.Not really but a boy can dream can't she?
It's a shame though, might as well be working in fast food

I don't know what that is but it look interesting. Maybe I can pretend to be a bartender on my internet games? I guess I'll just stick to my /r9k bar/ threads for nowI'll get something sweet, maybe a Toblerone or something

>going to a bar and easily pay 5 times more for a beer I can buy at the store 5mins from here
Yeah, sure. No.
i worked as a bartender at an indian restaurant.
shit was ok because i didn't talk to anyone and i could drink as much as i want.

A good bartender knows when to listen, when to talk, and when to just shut the fuck up. I'm a bartender and have been told many times I'm good at reading my customers. My most annoying thing is when im out for a beer and the bartender wont stfu and let me enjoy my book.
