<p>Well, if you&#8217;re a bartender like me, I&#8217;d say get dressed for your Clients&#8217; <em>Halloween Party</em>.</p>
<p><strong>It&#8217;s going to:</strong></p>
<p>1. Increase your tips.<br />
2. Make you look dedicated to the theme.<br />
3. Guests will remember you for their next party &#8220;new business&#8221;<br />
4. Let you have more fun<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Seems like the Our Nation is heading into Poverty We&#8217;ve been extremely concerned with our economic status more these days than ever. Plus do we want Mccain/Pailin or Obama/Biden, our gas prices are sky rocketing. We&#8217;re a mess! but with all this sadly to say we are still better off than most countries that dont even have &#8220;Freedom&#8221; I say to this let&#8217;s have a drink. </p>
<p>A drink in the name of poverty.  Afterall we still have to go back to work tomorrow. Some people don&#8217;t even have jobs currently, but still drive that brand new car. Imagine in other countries where they are in poverty and walk miles just to drink water or collect water for there livestock. so they can be able to eat later. In my opinion we aren&#8217;t doing that bad after all.</p>
<p>As this is not a political or Save the world &#8220;Blog&#8221; I just wanted to send out a message that Thank god for what we dont and do have. Because at our level Poverty is just a scratch at the surface of what the rest of the world is going through. And i say that humbly and with prayers that the rest of the world at least tonight would not suuffer in poverty.</p>
<p>As a proud American I stare into the eyes of poverty and say Cheers! Poverty for which you really haveb&#8217;t struck us yet! <em>Bottoms Up!</em></p>

<p>Hey, <em><strong>Happy Birthday!</strong></em>  Yeah&#8230; you! If you found this article interesting is because it must be your birthday! Or soon to be&#8230;</p>
<p>Come on, Everyone has a birthday. You know you feel like <a href="http://www.bottomsupbartender.com/dj_music.htm" target="_blank">dancing</a> to music, drinking, eating &amp; living this day louder than any other! Besides you live in a city that lets you be &#8220;Alive&#8221; and as colorful as you wanna be. Go ahead you deserve it. You&#8217;ve worked hard all year. So why not treat yourself to a lil party&#8230; it can be as small and private or as fun and noisy as it you want it to be. But dont do the same mistake i&#8217;ve done in the past of planning it all by yourself.</p>
<p>Let someone do it for you, your friends, family, siblings, partner you know &#8220;partner&#8221; your &#8220;love bug&#8221; the person that can make you smile and at the same time make you wanna throw yourself off of a building. hahaha ok that was over the top!</p>
<p>Maybe your single and wanna mingle what better way than a throwing Private Birthday Party, which is also a great excuse to drink. But on your day u shouldn&#8217;t be the one to have mix your own drinks. This is why you need a bartender, yeah&#8230; I said it a <a href="http://www.bottomsupbartender.com" target="_blank">Bartending services</a> company. Someone that will make you feel Incredible! oh sure Tia Maria can make a good <a href="http://www.bottomsupbartender.com/margarita.htm" target="_blank">Margarita</a> but is that all you want to drink all night? and pffft! she probably wont even salt the rim.</p>
<p>Whataya say?? Lets dust off that old bottle of Rum that you have so many memories with and rather not comment on by the way. I understand we have all been there. Miami has a way of doing that to people. You can&#8217;t show me one Miamian-(is that a word?) that doesn&#8217;t have a story. What&#8217;s your story? How is your birthday gonna go down this year? I know It&#8217;s just a day but with out this day &#8220;You&#8221; would&#8217;nt be reading this now, could ya? hahaha&#8230; Anyways&#8230; My point in all this is simply &#8220;<strong>Happy Birthday!&#8221;</strong> my new friend. from us at <em>Bottoms Up!</em></p>
<p><em>PS.<br />
Let us know how it all planned out.</em></p>

<p>Men Fess Up!<br />
Ladies this goes for you too!</p>
<p><strong>The alcoholic:</strong><br />
You wake up and have a beer or shot for breakfast, just so you can relieve the hangover from he night before.</p>
<p><strong>The stressed drinker:<br />
</strong>Nothing like getting home and having a glass of wine to unwind and relieve the daily stress.</p>
<p><strong>The social drinker:<br />
</strong>Go to  a club or bar with friends and pound a couple &#8220;6-7&#8243; drinks in one night get banged up, just for the purpose of socializing. Regretting it the very next morning.  Then wait until next friday to get hammered again at the next happy hour.</p>
<p><strong>the grass cutter:<br />
</strong>Beer in hand, mower in front of you&#8230; wife beater on ripped faded blue, well&#8230; was blue jeans, barefoot or sandals. Is this you? Male or Female grass cutter? hahaha</p>
<p>or are you the type whos pays someone and watches them mow the lawn but still&#8230; Beer in hand, wife beater on ripped faded blue, well&#8230; was blue jeans, barefoot or sandals.</p>
<p>It seems to never fail&#8230; we as americans always find an excuse to drink whether its responsibly or total wreckage. Booze has a way of getting into our system. My only advice to you is to please <strong><em>&#8220;Don&#8217;t Drink And Drive&#8221;</em></strong>  you could seriously mess up your interior if you were to spill your drink! Do you know how expensive these detail car wash businesses have gotten? it&#8217;s outahand hahahaha No but all jokes aside dont drink and drive! Call A Cab! Which reminds me thats a drink made Famous by Wet Willies down in South Beach, Florida. ok well anyways What kinda drinker are you? fess up! you just might learn something about yourself. <em>Bottoms Up!</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://bottomsupbartender.com/wordpress/wp-admin/http:/www.bottomsupbartender.com/images/tips.jpg"><img title="female bartender tips" src="http://www.bottomsupbartender.com/images/tips.jpg" alt="Female bartender tips" width="207" height="259" /></a></p>
<p>Male patrons:</p>
<p>Yes. It&#8217;s true, unfortunately or fortunately, females do pull more tips then men. Why? Is it because women are more professional? Yeah right. Lets get to the bottom of this. Now remember, this is only my opinion - ladies im not against you - but lets face the facts: when a man sees an attactive female bartender automatically his brain switches to flirting instead of just ordering the damn drink. On occassion, if she flirts back, he might splurge an extra 5, 10, or 20 spot. Conversly, when he sees a male bartender&#8230; he&#8217;ll say &#8220;hey, thanks for the beer here&#8217;s your buck!&#8221;</p>
<p>Female patrons:</p>
<p>Unless the male bartender is really hott! Woman aren&#8217;t the one who splurge dollars just to get noticed. Not that women are cheap, but, I think that most women feel that they can get his attention with just a smile, flash of personality or cleavage instead of throwing a dollars at him. Although i&#8217;ve had plenty of experiences with generous female customers. Usually its the girls who pull more tips.</p>
<p>I think, in this, females win, due to the fact that woman dont&#8217;t tip men as much, yet receive more tips from men. In both by working or sitting at the bar.</p>
<p>I hope this musters up the fight in you to comment on this article. Let us know your feed back, so all of us can benefit from this. As this is not a male, female battle but a united bartenders&#8217; battle. <em>Bottoms Up!</em></p>

		<description><![CDATA[How I ]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So, I had this absolutely fabulous idea.</p>
<p>My uncle has this <a title="bartending business" href="http://www.bottomsupbartender.com" target="_blank">bartending services business</a>, and I, have been working as a bar back at a Hialeah bar &amp; grill, which I will not mention at this moment, mostly, because I do not have the financial backing to put together a defense team if something I say causes them pursue legal action; anyway&#8217;s, naturally one can see the connection. We both have cocktail experience. Sure mines is more of the sipping variety, but that is not important. What is important is that a series of images started to roll through my head: me flipping bottles, woman throwing their bras at me, having to resort to asking people to rent their pockets so I can carry my tips home. It&#8217;s all so sweet. It&#8217;s also going to happen too. You see,  in my head I reasoned that I knew what will separate us from the competition, besides having a company name that has sexual innuendo, we will have a web site and a blog. Surely, the business will start rolling in.  </p>
<p>I went home grabbed a pen and pad and&#8230;<br />
&#8230;.<br />
Drink recipes&#8230;<br />
&#8230;.<br />
&#8230;.<br />
No. How about&#8230;?<br />
&#8230;.</p>
<p>What does one write a bar blog about? I couldn&#8217;t think of anything. Seriously, how can I talk &#8220;blow jobs&#8221;, &#8220;sex on the beach&#8221;, and &#8220;slippery nipples&#8221; and sound like a professional businessman? I can&#8217;t. Then it dawned on me: I can&#8217;t for the same reasons that shots aren&#8217;t called &#8220;board meetings&#8221;, &#8220;stock portfolios&#8221;, or &#8220;proposals&#8221;; because when people talk about first quater numbers at bars, they want to know their fantasy running-back stats not sales reports. </p>
<p>I know that he doesn&#8217;t care how a cosmopolitan is made, he just wants to know how many will he have to order to get the leggy-brunette in bed. And she wants to know how can she ditch him after he has bought her and her friends drinks all night. That is what I will be writing about. Reporting my social on the field observations. Entertaining the masses in the process.</p>
<p>This is the first of many. I am uncensored. Here as your tour guide.</p>
