TheDoctor Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 People who stay in my pub over an hour after I call last orderes sipping on there drink like they are stuck to the seats and dnt have a fucking home to go to. I have a bed too you know!!!! I hated that about working in a pub as well. Just because they want to nurse their drink like it's the last one ever, doesn't mean I have to become an insomniac as a result. I'm with you on that one 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dougalldogg Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 Reach for your shotgun and tell them to get out. That could work, then again could end up with a court case instead of a good nights sleep. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a bed too you know!!!! I think I can speak for these people, this is the stage where you are unsure if the night should continue or you should go home, the extra 30mins is a discussion if late pubs,student unions,nightclubs,casinos,kebabs should be the next visit. We are sorry to all bar staff and we should make up our minds before midnight instead of mulling it over 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decisions decisions!!! I used to work in a pub and last orders was 12.45am on fri and sat nights, 11.45 the rest of the week. Drinking up time was until 1am or 12 midnight. Everyone had to be out of the pub by quarter past the hour. I could lift drinks and pour them down the sink, if they weren't moving. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are sorry to all bar staff and we should make up our minds before midnight instead of mulling it over Would make sense, but considering where my pub is as it is the only pub in the village with no takeaways within 15miles they are just being cocks I think lol Try telling inappropriate or racist jokes to them. Now that I am very good at, if I remember rightly I have actually (a while back now) told them a few after I had a couple pints, the guy found them sligtly amusing, but the bird didnt take too kindly to jokes about paedo's and raping babies.... Might try it again tonight see how long the stay for night shift forum for me 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Middleton Mouse Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 Animal care forums, seriously they are awful! I've just been banned from a rabbit care forum because there was a huge thread running about a man who breeds rabbits, kills them and feeds them to his snake. No one mentioned any issue about the way the rabbits were being kept so I replied saying "what's wrong with that then?" and was promptly banned. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only a matter of time before one of our over zealous Mods gets round to banning you from P&B - calling one of your rabbits Timothy would be a start. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
