Tails and Glowsticks
Through a series of knowing this person who knows that person and being introduced to another person, I am the bartender at Tails and Glowsticks this Friday from 9-1am at Chicago Party Animals. It's a furry rave themed party with booze and music.
Ironically, it is being hosted at a space I called home for many months training my dog, Smiles. It is kinda nice at the same time, as they mentioned to the creator of TG that they were glad it was me handling the alcohol since they know me. lol
Anyway- since I am bartending there are a few details I want to make known. I WAS a bartender when I lived in Ohio. Granted, it was many years ago, but it's like riding a bike and I am not to worried- tending helped get me through collage.
-ID's will be checked at the door and wristbands given out. I can double check ID's at the bar if I feel like it or suspect anything.
-We will have a pony keg of 312
-I am making a fruit punch with Everclear, Pineapple Vodka, and some peach pucker- along with 7-up, fruit punch, lemonade, and possibly some Tropicana in a large 5 gallon cooler.
-Tip the bartender
-I am going to be doing marks with a sharpie on people's hands for how many mixed drinks they get. Again, in knowing the owner comes some pressure...I do not want any vomit anywhere or people getting so drunk they cause issues. I will cut people off if I have to.
-TIP THE BARTENDER. PLEASE. The booze is FREE....BUT tips go towards the charity- which is The Dog Saving Network (the group I trained Smiles with at that venue).
-I will be serving those who tip FIRST. (Because, honestly, they are showing some gratitude)
-Don't be stupid. I do not have to serve you.
Other then that...It has been great helping Trent get everything organized (as he is the chair of the event) and figuring out details, and he is an awesome dude. I am picking up the remaining mixers and bottled water this week.
There is about $500 worth of booze in my possession right now and it's kinda overwhelming to see all of it together- but in seeing it I am reminded that everyone is gonna have a hella good time.
I hope to see all of you there. <3
