So dealing with crazy girl problems from mine and my best friends ex followed by a pretty stressful day at work made me decide to stop at one of my regular bars on the way home last night for dinner and drinks.

I sat down at the bar, ordered their Fettucini Carbonara, a Jack and Coke, and a glass of water. Drink comes first and to my taste bud's surprise it's a double. So as I'm finishing the first drink the bartender brings out my food with another drink in hand as well. So I drink that one while I eat then get to BS'ing with the bartender and next thing I know I'm finishing my fourth double. So I decide I should probably head home before I go overboard so I ask for my tab.

$13

which is basically the price of the food. So I tip $10 and head for the door realizing at that point that I'm pretty drunk. So I'm standing outside smoking trying to psyche myself up for the walk home in the rain when another dude walks out behind me and lights up a cig. He sees me holding my keys and asks where I'm headed. I tell him I'm headed uptown but I'm walking since I'm drunk. Then I have an idea. I asked him if he was sober to which he replied yes. Then I asked him if he could drive a manual which he also said yes to. Turned out he lived about a block away from me so I told him if he wanted to he could drive me home which he decided was certainly better than walking home in the rain.

So it was a win/win night. Got drunk cheap and didn't have to walk home in the rain and then walk back downtown this morning to find my car.

Good night.

What a let down. I was expecting a "went into a bar and the hottest chick in there came up to me and told me she wanted to get [freak]ed" story.

well i had a win/loss situation last friday. Drunk girl comes up to me @ the bar while im tryign to order drinks and says that "if u dont smile then u wont get any ass". So then i procedd to smile. She then says "ya you better smile or else no girl is going to f**k you". Than i got a big smile on. She said she will be right back. Heads towards the restroom as i watch her. Comes out of the restroom and gets caught up by security and gets thrown out because of her dumbass drunk friends causing trouble. ah win/lose for me

She tried to give me the $10 back. I've been going there since I turned 21 and always overtip even if I pay retail, which isn't very often so it's all good.

I no shamed. I would have walked if I had to but not getting soaked was definately the better option.

LOL. He got a tab for $13 after ordering dinner and 4 drinks

so a $25 tip + $13 tab = $38

I'm guessing that his pasta was probably $11ish, and the drinks normally cost $5.
$11 + 4 * $5 = $31
Add in a $15% tip, and you get $31 * 1.15 = $35.65

Usually the upshot of a bartender hooking you up is you paying less. Otherwise, what's the fvckin point? lol.

I'm all for being a good tipper, but it's not like a bartender gets charged for the drinks they give you for free.

When my friends bartend, I usually give them $1 or $2 for every drink they send my way, and don't charge me for. Never once have they told me I'm a shitty tipper, lol.

I think a $10 tip was spot-on.

GS'D YA · 10-10-2008, 10:44 AM

sounds like you went from jack and cokes

to jackin off guys

When I used to tend bar and hand out freebies $5 was pretty standard for a pitcher and $1-$2 was good for a well or a pint. Knowing most of the bartenders in town on a first name basis has definite advantages.
