This week's guest is Ty Miners, who joins us for an in-person interview. This is Ty's second appearance on the show, and we had a great time talking and having a few drinks with her. Some of the topics we cover include talking about Ty's time, working for Kip, managing Argyle Arms, and what worked and what didn't work with that bar in Cambridge, and we discuss Ty's future plans and what she wants to do with her career moving forward, plus a host of other topics. Enjoy the show!
Okay, we're back with another episode of the industry podcast in the year 2024, the second episode of the new year. Very exciting. How are you, Dan? That's still awesome.
Yeah, for sure, yeah. Yeah, I'm all right. I'm all right, we're getting by. Yeah, we had our airing of the grievances beforehand, so...
That's right, we just aired all the grievances, vented for... That's why I do, I come over early, vent all my shit, and then we get ready to record. Let's go about the bars, is that you'd like to ask? Yeah, I knew yours was solid.
I think we talked about that last week, but yeah, we're into January February now, so we'll see what happens. We saw some private functions at the bars, which is good. People are starting to spread that out into January now. February could be rough, but why think about that?
I thought it happened. I see you guys are doing a little bit of a touch-up work at the bar as well. Yes, we are. My original contractor at Babylon fucked up the bar, and then promised to come back and fix it and did not.
So a couple of our regulars, actually, these lovely women who hang out at the bar all the time, and both engineers, both very handy, came and helped us sand everything down, and get the bar back to level, so it's good. So yeah, that all happened, what they've been doing in the stages, but they got finished last night, so it was exciting. Yeah, yeah. Great ladies.
I'm not going to devolve their names because they didn't give me permission to do that, but if they are listening, they know who they are, they're awesome. Yeah, so it's good to have good people in your lives. No, I'm pretty sure. That's what the moral of that story is.
Yeah, be nice to people. I'll help you out. Yeah, be nice to people. Imagine.
Imagine that. Yeah, so that bar is Babylon Sisters in Uptown Waterloo, if you're visiting the area at Babylon Sisters Bar on Instagram. If you're in downtown Kitchener, it should have run. The Speakeetee, you can try and figure out the password, try and find us.
That's downtown Kitchener, I can't tell you where it is, the location unknown, but it's actually going to run bar on Instagram. So come check that place out if you're in the Kitchener Waterloo area. And if you wish to be a guest on the show, you should DM us at the Industry Podcast on Instagram, or you can email us directly info at the Industry Podcast.club. That's the artwork is Zakana on our Instagram page at zakana.co.
Zak is amazing. Check out all his stuff. And if you really want to help us out here, if you like what we're doing, and I'm assuming if you're listening to this shit on episode, what episode are we on now? 180.
Yeah, if you're still listening to this crowd, then at this point, if you haven't followed, liked us, left a review, rated us, then what are you even doing? Yeah, that's about 180 drugs. 180 drugs. And the second one with our current guest who's coming on making a triumphant return to the Industry Podcast, joining us right now is Time Miners.
How are you, Ty? I'm great. How are you? Cheers.
Cheers. Thank you for having me back. Thanks for coming. I got your previous appearance on episode 107.
And here we are at 180. That's crazy. We're at 180. 180.
Yeah, so we were talking about that a little bit before you came on. It was almost like two years ago. Is that what you were saying? I think spring.
Yeah, because I remember the snow was just melting and stuff. So we were still wearing a massive shit and like... Oh, boom. Come on.
You were still working at the Bower Kitchum. Yep. Since then, you've had a wild ride? Yeah, it's been a good learning curve, that's for sure.
Right. Well, we should mention that. Anyone who's been following the show knows that we had a little pub in, Cambridge called the Argyll Arms that has since closed down, unfortunately. Very sad.
Ty was the GM of the Argyll Arms when we closed down, and a better employee I could not have had. So let me just say that if anyone's listening to this, Ty is available for work right now, so fucking reach out to me, to her, whatever. You want this one I'm working for you. That's very sweet.
I am a free agent, so I'm open to it, but we'll see. Yeah, very true. Work is overrated. It's a couple of times you need to get paid to live in, but enjoy the time off while you can.
Yeah, and I was lucky enough to have you work with me, and it was an amazing experience. I mean it a whole hard way. You're an unbelievable, unbelievably professional person, super efficient. Everyone who works with you loves you and all the guests love you.
It's like, yeah, it's your home run higher if anyone's looking. But we... That's amazing for you to say thank you. Of course, I need it.
We thought that we would be sitting here when we booked this episode, that we'd be sitting here talking about the future of the Argonne. Yeah, that's right. We're very excited. Yep.
But that is not the way the cookie crumbled. So instead, what do you think... I don't know if you and I even actually talked about this, because I think at one point I just had to say to you, hey, I think you probably saw this coming, but this is what's happening. We have to close down.
We're losing money every week. What do you think happened or didn't happen? Well, if I can speak to before I came on, all I saw was a few reviews. About a few of the prices were too high and that the service was not there.
Food was incredible. When I came on, that flipped. So I can speak to what I know when I was on. Yeah, sure.
And what I think is we didn't do enough and that's on me. And I own that. I think for sure that as a general manager, I should have been pushing my team a little bit more to kind of hit Preston. We had the buildings beside us.
I think we could have went into the buildings and posted up flyers right when I started. Unfortunately, that thought came after and it was too late. But you didn't really infer it. You didn't really have a team tie because it was so slow that you were mostly the only person working.
That is also true. That is very bad. That would have been all on you. And I don't really think that's fair.
Maybe that should have been on me. I think there were a number of factors if I were going to talk about it. You probably, first of all, don't put any of that shit on you. That's not fair.
No. No. But we got hamstrung with the menu, I think, a little bit. The menu.
I think it just put us honestly. We changed you weekly. Yes. Yeah, a weekly daily hourly.
How are you guys? I feel like our guests felt like it was changing daily. It was just unfortunate. I think a couple of staples on there, right?
Yeah. I remember having the sliders. We were very good. It was the hottest thing I've ever eaten in my life.
I heard about this. Yeah, it was before my time. Yeah, it was in June. And that was something else.
They were good. But that was a struggle too. Because when we gave the feedback to the chef, it was like maybe just dial back the heat on those because my friend Dan came who, you love hot shit. And it was too hot for you.
I remember James put him well. He goes, just a manager of the guy, he's a pub, you want to stop in. And you want a little snack. You know what the shit your brain's out doing?
20 minutes later. That's told what it was. But we gave that feedback and instead of just being like maybe take the hot sauce off it, all of a sudden the sliders were just gone. But people said why on the side of it.
The sliders were good. Exactly. So we had that. But we also had, as you know, I think that between you and I, we brainstorm so fucking hard to like what can we do?
What can we do? What can we do? We tried everything. We tried fucking.
Speed dating. Let's talk about that for a second. You know what? It was like the movies.
Okay. This lady, she was lovely. She was awesome if she's listening to this or does listen to this. You were awesome.
We loved ya. That baraka girl. That was incredible. So they had a five minute timer and she would shake the maraka and everyone would switch.
You know what? Being on shift for that and bartending it was incredible. You know what? Those are the things we like, those are the lengths we went to because we wanted people to come in and see the staff, see the service we could offer.
And it's, it just, yeah. We tried everything. I like that. Speed dating night so much.
We're actually going to do it at Babylon. So seriously. Yeah. Yeah.
Because Laura is amazing. She really is. Yeah. And it was a fun experience to watch.
But yeah. Like we tried that. We tried music. Bingo.
It was also, it's just such, pubs are such staples for regulars. Right? Like it's like cheers. Right?
So it's like the fact that that place was closed for like a year and a half before I took it over, all those people used to drink. They found somewhere else to drink. And once those people find somewhere else to drink, that's what they do now. That's what they do now.
It's a home. It's a home. It's a home. It's a home.
It's a home. It's a home. It's a home. We all have one.
We all have one. I'm not saying I didn't make mistakes. But like, yeah, I don't know. I feel like we tried everything.
And certainly once you took over, like the reviews were like about the service were amazing. Oh, a service issue and good food to flipping to being like the problem with all the fun. Five out of five service, one star graciously for food. And you know what?
Yeah. Regardless of whatever, I genuinely think had we all been a team, like we should have been, from a house, back house, should never be divided. Had we all been a team and listened to each other when asked, I think that it would have been just fine. And there was so much potential in that place that kept when you called me and said, I know you may have seen this coming or may not have, I don't know.
But unfortunately we have to close the doors. I was upset because there's so much potential in that place that I was willing to go the extra mile, whatever it took to keep our doors open. And it was very upsetting because I feel like we knew. It just wasn't working.
Like, you know, you're sending me the sales reports every night. Like you couldn't do the math. You know, I was repaying the talent to come in to try. And the other thing too is if we didn't have anything, we had nothing.
Yes, exactly. It's so hard. Yeah. If we didn't pay someone to be there and perform or do trivia or do music or do speed then nobody would show up.
Yeah. We had an event. We had to have a reason for them to come there. But then you're taking a risk because I have to pay that person.
And then if nobody, but then still sometimes nobody would come. Yes, there were a few people. Yeah. We started to win the people who didn't bring anybody out.
Like you did a really good job with that. Like figuring out the people who actually drew. But even sometimes the people who drew didn't drop. No.
And that's just life. Like people have others going on or whatever. Of course. Yeah, you can't always rely on the people that are surrounding them.
They have their group. And they bring those people in. And that's why we want to hire them on. But they can't control what those people do.
You can regard this with their family or their friends. Here's something interesting to ask you. I don't know what you haven't really talked about. You came from Power Kitchen.
Sorry, it was the other place I took out. Brown Social. Like more sort of like they're not like fine dining spots but they're a little more high-end. They're like sort of that mid-range.
Like it's like a milestone plus. For sure. Yeah. And then going to like a pub in Preston.
How is that experience for you? Like if you ever worked in a situation like that before. No. Right.
So time is which show up to work well dressed. I can't. I didn't have the manager clothes on. Yeah.
And then you're in a pub. And so maybe just subscribe to us that experience for you. Like that. It must have been like culture shock almost.
It was. But you know what? When you and I sat down we had our conversations. You were like it's not what you're used to.
And I know that. I respected that fully to the point where I was like it doesn't matter if it's what I'm used to. If it's a hole in the wall. I'm going to show up ready for work every single day.
Because if you show up looking ready to go, your guests will feel that. Your team will feel that. That's what was so important to me. So yeah, it was culture shock.
But I was happy to do it. But it did. I agree with you. And I appreciate that.
That was your attitude. Because it does trickle down. It's hard to not come with a professional attitude when the person who is on the floor with you and your boss is coming with that sort of attitude and dressed in that fashion. Dress for success.
It's kind of difficult for you to show up and not give a shit. Right? A little bit. There were a few days where I was like I really don't want to do this.
If I'm being honest. I showed up and I was like I really don't want to do this. Laser will still be on. Just hands will still be on.
It didn't matter. And how did you find dealing with that crowd that must have been a much different crowd than you used to? I think I turned them. You definitely did.
I dropped them. I liked it. I liked it. I thought it was fun.
It was the most fun job I've had since I've worked at Jackassers. Which is where I started. It was the most fun that I've had. It was just awesome.
We met Colin. He's going to be listening to this. Hi Colin. Hello.
Colin's all right. I have no bad words to say about Colin. I have no bad words to say about Colin. No.
No. Great guys. I tried to talk to Colin that we were open. And whatever that sounds like, whatever, he was there to support it because he met the team.
When I came onto my knowledge, he met the team. He loved the team. And I love that. Yeah.
He's a good guy. He is, and really is. Mark too. And so about the Cowboys Mark, if you listened to this.
Because he's a big football fan and big Cowboys fan, unfortunately. After what happened last week, and but yeah, that was rough. But those were like two, and for me I wasn't used to being impressed and you weren't used to being impressed and these are people we never would have met otherwise. That thing.
I met Colin before because he used to come to Sugar. I'm not used to work. I think he used to work at the museum. At the museum, right?
So he used to come in, but unfortunately for me, I'm in a situation where I'd be so many fucking people. I met all the bars that I didn't click right away until he told me. But then now obviously I would know him to see him. But Mark, I never would have met before.
And who were our Friday regulars? Gary Marlene. Gary and Marlene. Beautiful people.
Beautiful people. So anytime you do something like this, at least you get to meet some cool people, right? And obviously some unfortunate things didn't work out. But for me, it's not going to be a great memory of my life except for getting to work with you and these people that we're talking about.
But obviously it's a financial issue for me. And the whole situation with you shall not be named. You shall not be named, shall we? Fuck Dennis Hernandez.
No, it broke my heart when you called me and told me that we had to close the doors. Because I saw it coming or not, it hurt me as your friend. To hear that your concept didn't work. Right.
Well, it was new to me. I don't mean to say this in any way that it just isn't what happened. It's not trying to be breakadoches or anything like that. But this has never happened to me before.
I have been lucky enough in my life in the places that I've opened and with the people I've worked with, none of them have failed before. So it was a whole new experience for me. And it's humbling for sure. But it's also like.
But is it though? Why would it be humbling? Well, just because it's the first one that didn't work. So it's only for that.
But I'm OK with it. I say to people, if it was the first place I opened, or if it's the only place that I own, then it would have been way more devastating. There's still a little bit of like, wow, I tried something and failed at it. If you can't help having those situations, but there were obviously reasons for it.
Some of them were my fault, 100%. I have a question for you. OK. I'm sorry to interrupt.
No. Sorry, listeners. What do you think you did wrong? Because you're saying some of it's your fault.
So I want to know what you think. What's your fault? I've been thinking about this a lot lately. There's a few things that I did wrong.
One was putting the trust in Dennis and not pushing back enough on him. Because the problem is it's a weird situation because he's an independent contractor. He doesn't work for me. He's renting a space and providing a menu.
But he was the first person I've done that with that I didn't necessarily agree with what he was doing. So part of that, I would say that, was a mistake. Clearly was a mistake in getting the business with that guy. Secondly, maybe I didn't spend enough time researching the area and trying to figure out what they were looking for.
That's all I can assume is because I don't know that area. So just assuming that I could just reopen the pub. And with the same name. Yeah, and then the people would just come back.
That was probably an error in judgment, right? You're going to do that again. No, I'm not going to do that again. So but this is what you do, you'll never remember a mistake.
Of course. There are things that, and like, oh, the fucking relationship with Sean and Marissa. Oh, God, music. The big mistake, getting them to do the booking.
I got taken advantage. I also am not used to doing the booking. Doing business with Bull user. Yeah, we're doing booking live music.
I used to do it back when I went and went and read it. But I'm kind of out of that game now. My other bars are not big live music spots. Or it's just like friends of mine who come and play, right?
So I know they're not going to take advantage of me. There was a couple of musicians right out the jump who were like, oh, Kipp will pay this because we asked them for it. Oh, that sounds lovely. Yeah, but it's also self-destructive for them.
It doesn't make sense for them because in the long run, eventually I'm going to catch on. And now you are out of a gig or you could have a much longer gig. I will say this, and I said this a million times in my life, one of the biggest issues with people in any form of life is that they're looking at that dollar that's directly in front of their face instead of $1,000 that might be coming down the road. And that is a major fault of so many people.
I was literally just about to. That's the money. Give it a second. Yes, if you'd rather than take advantage of people right away.
Give us your time. Give us your time. There were people like, oh, this is what I get paid to be a guy with a guitar. And I'm like, I didn't know.
And I frankly didn't know. And also advocate for yourself. And you don't think that you should be getting paid such and such. Advocate for yourself.
Yeah, so but yeah, so those are some of the mistakes that I made 100%. And I own them. And I should have done more research on the area. Frank, 100% I should have done more research about the area before I agreed to take it over.
And I probably wouldn't have done it. So that's the big mistake. That's the number one mistake. It was very interesting.
But that's present is a little interesting. But anybody I talked to said all that bar used to be banging. But the problem is that they just didn't come back. But we didn't even go.
We did. And you know what? We kept up as weird as it sounds. We kept up at the times.
We did. Bitches love trivia. Yeah. They love trivia.
I enjoy it. I like to go to bars with the trivia. It's a fun evening now. The problem is not, I mean it depends where you go, who's night it is.
But the problem is they don't always drink a whole lot. But yeah. Well. I already got it already.
Yeah. I got it. I got the good. Yeah.
I actually do a tribute already. I had a kind of trivia night. It would be a different rotating theme. Oh, yeah.
So we got it every time. Yeah, we did music bingo on Sunday. It was pretty fun. It is fun.
But we didn't get the crowd for it. It wasn't it? It wasn't it? We did OK on the first Sunday.
I think it's a tough day. It's a tough day. It really is. It really, really is.
But there are all tough days on this business now. That's the problem. There's no good days. And then you get into the winter.
And I was saying to adjust to my business partner on the other day. It's like, you know, this last week that happened, I'm like, there's five perfectly good days a week for snow storms. Yeah, what the heck. They don't need to be on Friday on Saturday.
Honestly. So rude. Yeah. Like, yeah, you got all these other days to change, bro.
OK. So interesting experience for you. And you were such a trooper. I know at the end of the video, you were kind of like, you probably could have gotten another job.
You stuck it out. And I was really appreciated that. Stuck with me till the end. And I would have been there in some regard, no matter what.
And this is why I will always have your back, no matter what. You already did. And that is why I had the job offer when I came to you. Yeah.
I said, this is my offer. And I went back to that person. And if he's listening, Steve, love you. I told him too.
I was like, you know what? I'm going to take this on. I'm going to take it with Kip. And I came back to Kip.
And I was like, you know what? You're a friend. I trust you. And I really want to work with you.
So I was happy to do it. Well, and you really, like, the point is, it was fucking slow. And you were not making any money. And you still stuck it out, which it says a lot about your character.
And for anyone who's listening to this again, the reason to hire a tie miner is that exactly. And she's not going to bail on you. But what do you think? What do you learn from the experience?
I learned that you can't just order a bottle of beer and walk out and then expect me not to walk out on the street and be like, hi, come back. Give me the bottle. This man literally yelled at me. He's like, no, I'm good.
I was like, no, no, I'm good. That's my license. Thank you. And he walked him back to me.
That's a question. That's a good question. That's a question of the ex-prol that I learned was honestly not to take any shit. I really learned that no matter how big or small I am, how loud or quiet my voice is, I know who I am.
Fucking away. I was just like, yeah. Anyone listening? That is, our cake fridge was in the ground with one of those old school ladders?
Yeah, like a trap ladder on what you would say. Like a reverse, like if you were to think about, like a trap door in the floor. So if you were to think about those old school homes that had the trap door in the ceiling for the attic, where the ladder would come out, it'd be pretty much that reverse. Yeah, so I'm getting a little off topic.
But what I learned was honestly so much, I didn't even know. Had a run of bar from underneath, like that's incredible. Like down there. The most amazing thing was how we would have to lower the kegs into the basement, which was on a chain.
A chain, they set up to like an old school crane operation, where you would lower it like with a hand crane. The kegs into the basement. And someone's down there, me going, he goes, are you good? I go, yeah, I'm good.
On hook it and just drag it all the way in. And then we sand it back up and like kegs, it's just, how do you set that up originally? It would be something else. Yeah, it's crazy.
The kutata was a good idea. You know what, there was a blockchain down there. There was a bid machine down there. Yeah, they used that.
Where do we set this up? How? Oh, yeah, like how do they set it up originally? Yeah.
That's a good question. There's a lot of beer and cocaine. Yeah. Truly.
Do you have that down there? OK. OK, so what do you want to do now? What do I want to do now?
Yeah, going forward. Because unfortunately, you hit your start to the shitty wagon and now the bars closed. You want to stay any, none of this has like soured you on a certain century. That's still your career path.
No, no. If there's anything that's soured me on the service industry, let me tell you for free. It's not the argot alarms. Oh, that's good.
Not at all. And you being my friend, Kib. Oh, I would tell you. No, I definitely still want to stay in the industry, but in a part-time role.
Maybe just doing the bartending, doing the make money role. Yeah, yeah. And by make money, I don't mean like, you weren't paying me enough, you weren't paying me more than enough. I was very comfortable and happy.
However, I think I'm just really ready to do the 9 to 5. Yeah, you weren't. I'm doing the 9 to 5, OK? That's what I want to do.
What do you want to do? I just administrative. I want to be in a leadership role. I think that that's really good for me, but not with the service industry.
Yeah. Well, we'll work for the beverage brand, though. I might be in a vaster. Yeah, you would be really good with that.
Because I think with this podcast, I had no idea how many other jobs were available, like with the industry, could move up in that kind of scale. Yeah. And some who's actually going in likes to work. I really do.
I fucking love to work. Yeah, you thought about that like doing a fucking beer or a wine wrapped up? He's a couple years of sloging it out. But no, I haven't.
He definitely recognized those people who like do work hard. Yeah, you would kill the thought. Yeah, I'm not saying it had it crossed my mind. I just, I don't know.
I want to do something different. Yeah. And then Bartend wanted two nights a week or serve one or two nights a week. So I don't want to fully leave the industry, but I want to do.
I want to try out that nine to five. Do I want to work at a cubicle and look at a fucking wall? No. But I do want to try that nine to five in an administrative role.
I think a lot of those jobs are actually working from home now anyway. So you can't. Or remote. So I go back to Costa Rica for two weeks.
Five. There you go. Yeah. So just something with leadership.
I really love seeing the people that I've either hired or that have started with me, where I can teach them. I love seeing them grow. That is the one thing that I love. And Steph, who we hired at Argyle.
It was my pleasure to walk in one day, literally unlocking the doors. And there was this piece of paper folded in the door. And I pulled it out. It was a resume.
It's Stephanie Blank. I'm not going to say her last name. It's Stephanie, whatever. And I knew exactly who she was.
I knew who was younger sister she was. And I tried to get her at Bauer. I canceled all of the interviews that I had for Argyle. And I was like, we're hiring this girl.
We have to. And she grew into this little bartender. And she was like on it. She was on the ball.
And just seeing her just grow was incredible. In the short time that I had with her. So I don't be. Yeah.
She was also helping me. So lovely. Very nice. Yeah.
She reached out to me actually about doing some live performances at my other bars, because she was planning on doing it. Happy other bars? She was trying to do it at Argyle. Right.
And then we closed. And then she was put into the day she wanted, what was it? Like New Year's Eve from noon to three. Which didn't?
Well, it doesn't work honey. I love you. It doesn't work. So it was.
And then there was another one that was a day that we were definitely going to be closed. It wouldn't want to be a new day or something like that. But it was like, I'm not versed to give you a shot to do this. But it just showed sort of a lack of understanding of the service industry.
And of course we're not open at that time. But otherwise, that was a lovely person. And she did grow into that role for sure. You want to talk about the woman who worked there when you first got hired?
Am I allowed to say her name? I guess. What a week here. Christal, let's talk about her.
That's the first day of your career. Yeah. Yeah. So I met her.
How was that? That was Preston. Awesome. She was too rough for Preston.
You know what? I came in and she was very nice. She was very lovely. So Krista, I started to work.
And she was the one that trained me. There was one night where. The early of that. So what happened to the Portland?
Second trade you? Yeah. Oh, did you? Well, how did you do that?
She introduced me to Argyle. Yeah, she had already worked there. And now we're there. Yeah.
She introduced me to Argyle. Basically just what the building looked like is what she. So anyways, it was quite the situation. I think it was a week and a bit after I went to camp.
And I said, it's time. Yeah. It's a let her go. And I said to camp, I was like, I will do it if you want me to.
And he was like, nope, I got it. My restaurant, no problem. And I was like, oh, OK. It was.
But what had tele-cellular listeners what happened? Like, tell the two main events that happened that you had to tell me. I've heard that he's story so I don't maybe laugh. OK, God.
OK. So I'm on shift. A friend from my high school comes in. And we haven't seen each other in forever.
Anyways, we're working. We're a little bit busy. Krista wants to go home. But she wants to not only leave for a minute to go pick up her steps on or something.
She wants to take this guest's truck to go and do that and then come back. Also what happened was he comes up to me and he says, hey, this girl, who is Krista, asked me to load these picnic tables into the back of my truck and take them to her house. And I was like, I'm sorry, what? And it was the middle of the ship at the end of the ship.
Mid-shift. And I'm still new. So there's people inside, outside, whatever. I'm a little busy.
She wants to leave mid-shift with a guest's truck that she has asked him to load picnic tables on so that she can go and take them to her house and then go. This boy does know any better. No, he's paying a nice guy. He's paying a nice guy.
What Canadian you're going to say, yeah? Yeah, I can't. I can't pay a better. Exactly.
And so anyways, I go up to him and I'm like, take the picnic tables down. I was like, first of all, she's not cut. She's not leaving. She can't leave me with this.
And I go up to her and I go, hey, what's going on? Whatever. And she's like, oh, he offered. To take these picnic tables home for me.
And I was like, no, no, that's not what happened. So I was like, you're not leaving. That's not what's going on right now. Do you want me to tell the second situation?
Well, so that was the night that I ended up hunting the fireer because that. Oh, yeah. Because then she sat at the end of the bar. Oh, gosh, I forgot.
I'm so sorry. Yeah, and then we'll go back to the other one. She sat at the end of the bar that night. And it just, I understand, it's a dive bar.
You have a young manager. It's a free-for-all quote, quote, no, it's not. This girl sits down after her shift. And I pour her a drink.
And she picks up the glass and just walks out. And I call camp and I go, OK, just so you know, this happened. And he was like, holy fuck. And I was like, it's time.
It's truly time. Her ride showed up. So she was just like, well, fuck it. I guess I'll just take this drink to go.
But it wasn't even in like, it was just in the glass. The sign is just poured in. It's like walking right now. And I'm like, this isn't New Orleans.
I wet it. Like this. Just go. Yeah.
