Wasn’t AOC a barista?

What’s her opinion?

Her opinion is that if your co-workers aren’t looking, you can steal their tips.

Has Amy ever waited on tables?

I did, in college, working on the night shift at an iHop.

She should get her nose out of where it has no business being and stick to what passes for comedy.

I worked with a millennial that was all about big raises to the minimum wage. We tried to explain economics to him. He never got it. Eventually, due to his work habits and lack of ethics, he found his minimum wage was zero.

My daughter worked as a bartender (certified) and as a night manager of a small bar and grill (best hamburgers and chicken tenders around). She had also worked for several other small-medium sized bars/grills while going to college.

On a bad night she made about $150 (some of which went to the support staff). On a good night $200-$300 and she earned every bit of it (I would often escort her to her apartment at 3:00 AM for security reasons - before she got her CCP). I saw what she had to do to tally up the bills, clean the bar and tables, floor, etc.

No wonder the hard working waitresses and bartenders don’t what the Hollywood scavengers butting into their work arena.
They know it will only hurt them, not the wealthy leftist fools.

One of them from the latter category is actress and comedian Amy Schumer.

Comedian?! Shouldn't she be funny to be called a comedian? I mean, at least once?

What state ‘certifies’ bartenders? Does certification come with an understanding that you are not to hold a customers glass by the rim but by the base?

Can’t vouch for the other guy’s state, but I know that Oregon certifies bartenders. They have to receive training on when customers are “overserved” and know when to cut them off, among other things.

There's an article that said a third of NYC residents want to move out of the city.

It's a crying shame how people just don't see the connection between economic ruin and hardship and the policies espoused by left-wing activists and implemented by Democrats.

All of the homeless, crime, and drugs are in Democrat-run cities.

Leftist understanding of economics never exceeds the kindergarten level of "sharing is good, being selfish is bad. And everyone working together will always get more done than any of us working apart!" Nobel prize winning economists of leftist bent use polysyllabic words but say the same thing.

They lack basic understanding of human nature, cause and effect, and their role in economics. "Raise taxes on the rich!" results in the rich moving away. "Pay everyone $15 an hour!" results in less people being able to get jobs and more businesses failing. They scratch their heads and say "it must be because of Trump" because not only do they lack basic understanding of economics, they also lack the facility any level of self evaluation and introspection. Fail, do it again. Fail again, do it again. Fail a third time, blame someone else and do it again. Whole system fails, move somewhere else that's still good and ruin it by, you guessed it, doing what you saw fail over and over before.

Leftism is an emotion based philosophy where they seek to gain satisfaction by being higher minded and more holy than thou. They care not about results, only their sense of superiority. And when your whole philosophy is based on feeling smugly superior you never questions whether things went wrong because of something you did.

Worked with a guy who thought Socialism would be great because ‘we’ would all be better off.

I asked him if his wife drove a new car to work like he did.
He said yes.
I asked him how much he made.
He said about $45k.
I asked how much she made.
Also about $45k.

I said you and your wife make $90k per year, have two new cars, a house, and you just said you bought a new big screen last week. YOU aren’t going to be better off under socialism. They’re going to be taking from you. Compared to the truly poor you’re one of the ‘rich’.

I heard the place she used to work at went to $15/hour, couldn’t make it, and closed.

Bartenders can take a “certified” course re the proper mixing of drinks according to industry standards.

Been a long time ago since my daughter was “certified” re passing this course, but it was an industry (bar/grill, etc) recognized professional training course.

I’ve had several re computer skills/programs and I got a certificate that I passed the course at the end of the training period.

Please do not take this the wrong way. Do they teach the bottle twirling techniques and shaking dice for money for the juke box? I don’t drink hard liquor and don’t know anything about wine. I’m strictly a beer drinker. I was wondering because I used to shake dice with the bartender girls for the juke box, they always picked the songs. I wouldn’t know a Manhattan from a margarita but I liked watching the girls shake that thing back in the day. Getting old sucks.
