After many years of sitting in front of the bar I have just taken a job that puts me behind the bar. The fact that this guy hired me is shocking because I don’t know my booze. I have been a beer and wine drinker and that’s been pretty much it. I’ve never been a real booze hound so this should be interesting. I didn’t bullshit the man, I told him that I really don’t know what I’m doing, so they know that upfront. If it works, I guess I can look at the bright side, I’ll be getting out and getting paid for it. Shrug.
This bar is more of a beer and shot place anyway, so I’m sure I’ll be OK. But, just in case, I should go watch Cocktail. Speaking of which, did you know that the first place Tom Cruise works in that movie is a TGI Friday’s? The very place that did what Tom’s character was trying to do in that movie: making a corner bar “to be franchised in every suburban shopping mall.”
