Wow what a terrible person for a bartender. This is one of those few times I realize I didn't leave enough room at the low end of my 1-5 star scale. What a complete asshole. In case other bartenders are nice, the guy I'm talking about is a white, overweight male in his 40s.
I ordered a Gin Fizz and a White Russian for my girlfriend at the bar and he says "I really don't feel like making that" ("Ah White Russian habe ich jetzt gar keinen Bock drauf") and glares at me for a few seconds (he wasn't joking). I sit back down maybe 8 feet from the bar and we hear him complaining about having to make a "pussy drink" ("Mädchengetränk") to the other customers. In hindsight, we should have gotten up and left before he started making the drinks. When he gives us the drinks, he asks whose is whose. My girlfriend claims the White Russian and he says "oh, that makes sense.." ("Für wen ist der? -- Ja dann pass es ja wieder"). He also insults her choice when he hands her the drink ("Hier der Schlabberdrink"). Then she asks if he'd like us to pay now or later and he says "What does this look like? McDonalds?" and walks away ("Swollen wir jetzt oder gleich beahlen? - Sind wir hier bei McDonalds oder was?!").
I mean, what kind of person do you have to be to treat other people like that, let alone customers?! Your menu lists White Russians as a drink you can order. If you don't want to make it, remove it from the menu, or better yet, don't be a bartender, you moron. This must be news to him, but if you're a bartender and someone orders a drink, it's not prerequisite that you personally like the drink!
My God, how someone like this gets ANY job and KEEPS the job is beyond me. I can't imagine what the owner must be like that he thinks this is anything close to acceptable behavior for an employee.
If you enjoy being treated worse than a piece of garbage, this is the place for you. read more
