The way the fruit is cut is giving me weird feelings in my pants. You should see the disaster fruit that is always prepped for me. Fuckers are hair thin and usually dried out when I need them. It's kind of embarrassing
Someone at my work can't cut fruit to save themselves but everyone I ask says it's not them. Everytime I start my shift my limes are all cut in weird shapes and are mostly no good for me..
My (new) barback today told me it wasn’t his job to get shit for me and I could get my own ice- management 86ed him before 9:30. We found a half drunk bottle of 818 tequila hidden behind the ice well- so I guess he got his attitude from Kendall Jenner.
This reminds me of when I worked at Bar Louie. Ugh I loved that job because of all of the different flavors options we could offer! My main job's well is not great and I'm always running around to get bottles to use. At my other job, it is set up pretty efficiently.
Questions. Do you make it every day new and throw the rest away at the end of the shift? And do you let this outside the whole evening? My coworkers put it back into the fridge when they don't need it for a couple of minutes. I don't see the reason to prepare if they put it back every time. Then I just can slice the fruits when I need them. (our bar isn't as frequented as any Barkeeper would want it)
Please cut lemons and oranges the right way, giving me PTSD over here getting yelled at as a barback lmao. Half wheels are actually easier to cut too imo
Nothing pets my peeve more than shitty bruised limes. Not trying to be nit picky but the entire purpose of a garnish is to make the drink look better. Other than that it looks great!
Can you be my opener please
Haha. My opener doesn't do this either
Second that. Why is it so hard to fund someone who leaves it the way they want it set up?
Nice setup, limes thick enough to make Paddy's Pub proud!
Yeah but did OP leave the pith on the limes?
I was going to say. At my last bar, if that was how big they were cut, we'd need at least 3x 5-gallon buckets of backup.
I mean thick limes are the cornerstone of paddy’s pub
Take a picture during service and let’s see if it still looks the same
Will do
Looks nice and clean. I don’t think I would enjoy your drink menu though based on this setup.
There are a lot of colors...
Like mine took yours and fucked it up the arse
That is a very small ice container
It's not size of the ice bin that counts. It's how deep she can go.
Two full of limes, one full of lemons, one full of oranges, one full of olives, one full of cherries
Same but I need 3 limes and about 4 cups of backups to get through a full shift
Let's talk about how this is the best fruit caddy.
Samsies
So. You were at Helgen. You saw this dragon with your own eyes?
Indeed I did
Limes are a little pithy….
Certainly not A5
Agreed
This must not be a 5 Goodyear star rated bar
Beautiful setup!!
Are those the pourers that measure out a shot? They look like them, I had to use them for 8 years and they were awful lol.
No they're free pour plastic pourers
You've got some rough looking limes in there, A5 wagyu pith jokes aside.
The fuck is the mint?! (Looks great).
Lmfao that's pineapple leaves
Very nicely done!
Oof, so much pith!
This is satisfying but those pour spouts bother me. 285-50s all day
The lid never lasts on bitters
They make me stuff blue cheese olives at my bar 😢
That looks fantastic. Only thing is the ice scoops shouldn't be in the ice bin.
and juices aren’t labeled, but overall it’s pretty
It’s one of those ice scoops with a Guardian holder or something.
Well, mine doesn’t have children’s cups.
I'd despise having to make kid drinks at the bar
Tbh I'd chuck those limes, lot of browning going on. Looks tight otherwise 👌
That is a lot of citrus
Seeds in lemons?
Cut smaller slices of each those oranges are insane! haha

Cut your limes fresh bro. It takes at least a day for limes to have yucky brown edges like that.
Is that Dave and busters ?
JCS.
ENTJ bartender vibes
ENFJ approves with tears of joy.

You could take 20% off those citrus wedges and still have the biggest in town.
I work at an AMC Theatres bar, so mine looks about 0.01% as good as this.
My ice was under the taps…most annoying set up ever 🙄
Keep that far from the top of the bar, those fresh fruits are going to attract grazers! lol
Are you in FL?
Texas
It's hard to find s good opener unless it's the bar manager and they take a lot of pride in their baby
I just want to say; as an open AND close bartender.........you are the bomb, and I love you.
Can’t wait to send a picture of my well tomorrow

Is this a bar in Hawaii?!
You must work at a pool bar. Also, some of those limes need to be tossed
A lot less sugar
This looks like a lot of frozen drinks happen here and I DO NOT envy that lol
Thankfully not as many you'd think. Just you're run of the mill Rita's coladas and daiquiris
How long will this last for you? The caddy, specifically.
Lasted the whole shift. 3pm to 10pm. With probably 15 percent wasted at the end.
Questions. Do you make it every day new and throw the rest away at the end of the shift? And do you let this outside the whole evening?

I cut my limes fresh every day. Those are doodoo limes.
Do lots of people wedge their oranges vs slice?
Please cut lemons and oranges the right way, giving me PTSD over here getting yelled at as a barback lmao. Half wheels are actually easier to cut too imo
That'll last 20 minutes. Looks good now, though
Why is there pimento in your olives?

Would you mind sharing a few alcoholic recipes?
Your set up looks legit!! Like a well oiled machine 😜 are those automatic pourers on your bottles????😒

Way better than this and with much less sugar and shampoo bottles. Do you work at like a dog track or something?
On a Tuesday?! Yo ass getting dehydrated-leftover-from-the-weekend fruit
