I had this discussion with some industry people recently: we've been educating people about beer for years, decades...<i>when's it gonna end, when will we see the fruits of all this work?</i> Well, <b>never</b>. As your boobtender shows, there are new people -- customers and servers alike -- coming up all the time, and they don't know nothin', and if they don't learn, sales and enjoyment drop. <br /><br />Enough to make your head ache. Never feel bad about pointing out bad service, or bad practices. As I always tell the kids: <i>thus, we learn.</i><br /><br />Congratulations on two years of blogging, BTW. I knew you'd enjoy it!Lew Brysonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04084380741402026573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6088240999047322556.post-86665407725470528462009-11-24T14:11:24.221-05:002009-11-24T14:11:24.221-05:00My pet peeve as well!

You said you have all kinds. We do, ya know, Bud, Miller, Coors, all kinds. <br />That, and when you ask what the special of the day is or the soup of the day and they don't know and ask, "would you like me to find out?" No, I'd kinda like to guess some more!<br />Or, it's my first day, I'm not sure. I don't care if it's yer first day! You work here, be prepared!<br />And another thing...! Well, maybe later!okbrewerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17734120990257928087noreply@blogger.com
