24 Amusing Interactions Between Bartenders, Waiters, And Their Customers
Drink, anyone?
People like to talk when they have a drink or two, which places the person behind the counter in an interesting position. Bartenders are great listeners, and they are much cheaper than therapists.
They can be our confidants, drinking buddies, and even date companions. You can’t really do that job if you don’t enjoy working with people.
While each bartender and server has their own style of dealing with clients, they all have the ability to leave a lasting impression. Whether it is good or bad is entirely up to them.
Of course, we also have an influence on that, as they are essentially reacting to our behavior. Danil Nevsky, the founder and CEO of the Indie Bartender Company, says that being a bartender is like being a discount psychologist, a pharmacist, and an actor on stage at an improv theater, all while being shouted at by waiters, kitchen staff, guests, and the owner simultaneously.
People in the service industry love sharing their experiences with customers, and the customers are not remaining silent either. So, who has the best stories?
Let’s find out. We’ve chosen some of the most interesting tweets from both sides, and we know you are going to love them.

Danil Nevsky says that bartending is "like trying to juggle umbrellas using your feet on a rollercoaster in Disneyland Paris. Those who end up doing this for a living are definitely into masochism and, if anything, are probably the most caring and educated people you will ever meet."
He also mentioned a saying about bartenders: "The bartender is the aristocrat of the working class. Bartending is the only profession where the entire world comes to you in good times and bad. Another expression I really like is, 'A man walks into a bar and discovers the world!'"

What would we do without our bartenders and waiters? There is no denying that they make or break a restaurant or a bar.
It’s not the food or the ambiance, and let’s face it, the drinks taste about the same everywhere. It’s the wait staff that adds flavor to a place.
