I always thought that was your bartender's job.

People can’t afford to drink that much right now. :)

[Secret Agent Man]

Bartender: whats wrong buddy? You look down in the dumps.

Guy: i’m depressed, I can’t afford my drinking habit anymore...

(Bartender now depressed...)

You barber or stylist isn’t your priest, you weak ass clowns. One of my buds is a barber/stylist and because I have long hair , rarely see him.

He tells me customers “confess” their life but he does NOT want to hear it which runs against the myth that barbers are your amateur shrinks. He states “I dont want to hear about your problems, and you dont want to hear about mine so shut up and let me cut your hair.” The only “personal” stuff he told me was that he was on the set of Back of the Future 2 and his family house was used in the one of the scenes.

Slush funds and Cush jobs.

I grew up thinking barbers were queers.

Give liberals money and they will find a way to pee it away, one way or another.

[catnipman]

my first thought as well: when are bartenders gonna get professional mental health training? ...

[HartleyMBaldwin]

“...barbers and hairstylists are trained to spot mental health challenges from the moment a client sits in the chair.”

For my part, I always check the barber for signs of instability. He’s generally got a razor somewhere nearby. And I haven’t forgotten “Sweeney Todd”, either.

“I grew up thinking barbers were queers.”

You must be a Yankee.

[DIRTYSECRET]

No, a fella from Arkansas told me.

WTF: Thought Police Alert!

[cranked]

Yeah, they need that psych garbo in Minnesota, especially in Minneapolis.

[Don Corleone]

While buying the votes of the ignorant along the way.

[lurk]

It’s actually a good plan, as long as it’s not secular psychobabble run by the government.

Have you priced haircuts lately? You can spend a couple hours in the bar for the price of a haircut.

[ButThreeLeftsDo]

Because this program is only being implemented in black neighborhoods tells me that the blame has been laid for all of the gun violence going on in Minneapolis.

The article says “Minnesota”, but I seriously doubt that this program is being put into place in Bemidji.

"You WHAT??"
