You know with the very high profit margin of booze every bar should give away some drinks.

The problem is who they give the drinks to.
The bartenders give it to their friends and girls they like, people who end up spending very little at the bar.

The owners do the same thing.

BUT you want to give drinks to your regulars and or people who have spent a bunch at your bar.
But in reality the regulars and big spenders end up waiting for the bartender to get done entertaining their friends.

Have seen this time and time again.

My friend owned a bar and I ended up hiring a person that knew somebody that worked for him well this person said they NEVER paid for drinks.
This persons friend worked the door they were not even a bartender!

AND this person was not great looking, If that person got free drinks who was paying I thought.

I gave out food to people that helped the restaurant out and even bought drinks for people that ate at my restaurant all the time and would see the people I bought drinks for the next day in my restaurant.

Man that's just good will.

These new guys don't get it.

Find the cheap drink like fireball and give that crap out, it's like 9 bucks a bottle.

I did get very tired of pretending to like EVERYBODY after ten years.
