Love these nights, they don’t come often but when they do it’s euphoric 😁. Most I made in a 10 hr shift was 800. Most of that though came from an angel of a man who left a 500 tip on an 80 tab. I just about cried when I saw it. If you see this Austin, you’re a saint. That money got paid forward!
Austin was probably over there crying too realizing after he sobered up he added another 0 on that 50$ tip 😜

The organization and the fact that all the other bartenders respect the organization by being organized themselves is very satisfying. A clean environment is a happy and less stressful environment. Very well done on both the people making drinks.
As an aspiring bartender, this was so good to see. Putting all the things I’m learning into action. Thank you so much!
I work in kitchens but we had a group of business men that sat at our VIP table around 10-12 of them they bought 4 bottles of our most expensive wine ($400/bottle) all had 5-6 course meals. The head of the company paid the entire bill that was around $8,000CAD and the server (who came in just to take care of this group) was left $1000 tip
Only $1000 tip on an $8000 bill, that's terrible, as that's only what 12%. If a server is giving excellent service, especially to a group of VIPs, they should have paid that server 20% which is $1600. I worked at a high end restaurant in the Napa Valley in California. We added an automatic 18% gratuity to parties of 5 or more, but 9/10 times they would leave additional money for the tip. Maybe Canada does things different but here in the US, I would be LIVID if I only got $1k on $8k tab
@@asmrp2p903 there’s better things to be LIVID about lol
@@asmrp2p903 you'd seriously be livid with a grand wtf? in uk you get 10% max which gets split between ALL the staff. tbf tho, we actually get paid enough to live so...
@@asmrp2p903 dude literally is getting a $1000 tip by just doing his fucking job and is still complaining lol
For whoever doesn’t work in this industry, server has to tip out kitchen, food runner, host, etc. usually it’s around 6%-8% of the entire bill which mean $500 out of $1000 didn’t go to the server’s pocket in this case. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still a huge amount money but server is not just working for him/herself.
Percentage- wise, i think my biggest tip was $20 on a $3 Coke. But dollar- wise it was probably $86 on the whole $260 tab
Am a waiter in a restaurant inside a hotel. We have also a night club, but rarely used. Yesterday i was the bartender and really liked it(im not a good one, only know 10-15 cocktails, mocktails and some shooters). It was a 13 hour shift but really liked it(9 hour waiter then the rest at the club).
Yeah I do this too
I work in a late night venue,
If I were to make a pov it was just be constant vodka whites and me dancing for hours 😅
Eating fast while standing, i feel u bro
This is awesome. Whole staff is very professional and did a great job.
On fire that night bro!
What a lovely lady to leave you that tip.
No doubt!
I would like to work as a bartender, looks so fun and elegant, greetings from chile 🇨🇱

You don’t want to be a bartender, I am, it’s pure torture
@@harrybarry621what job isn’t?
My biggest night was $1100 and change on a saturday back in 2017. My bartner got sick and called in did at least a crowd of 400 by myself.
Awesome videos 👏🏻👏🏻 You inspire alot of Bartenders and Future Bartenders including myself 👍🏻
Thanks man! Love what I do
Whereas in the UK, I was a bartender for 6 going on 7 years and I’ve been personally tipped 3 times. We have a higher hourly salary to balance that but that’s only £9/10 an hour
Really?! If you live in California, Vegas or Nyc you'd get that plus tips.
@@beprettylife There really isn't a "tipping culture" over here in the UK though, same as fast food deliver services (uber eats etc), nobody really tips those guys either
@@Randymash It just seems the salary is low for no tip, I would think the wage would be 15-20.
@@beprettylife Not sure about wage in most places but cost of living isn't astronomical is a lot of places in the UK so the wage works out decently. Other than the likes of London and places like that obviously you definitely need a higher wage there
Congrats to you. I can tell your focused and doing a lovely job.
I LOVE YOUR VIDS PLZ NEVER STOP
... Amazing To Look am.i righT?
am.also really FacinaTed
MOST of

Wow thats great 😍love bartending , i have come across alcohol mist balloon shots an bought one of the machines , first i made $1500 from one bottle of whiskey, didn't even finish the bottle could have made more , its a fun way to enjoy alcohol for clients an i get to make more 💵 than before.
I've never made more than 500 in a shift so good for u lol
Job well done🤗 Greetings from the 🇵🇭
Roughly speaking, 600 dollars is my salary for a month working as a waiter xD In Russia, Kazan
4:47 .. this is hard life dude. I’m not saying this is very hard comparing the life of a firefighter or those of hard working labourers from Mexico Coz it’s not . But compared to my life this is hard. We have dinner at our house or in a nice place, dinner for him is like eat up and back to work like stuff. Very difficult
What camera equipment was used for the video?
This is the best way to show and a perfect angle my brother
Cosmopolitan, Negroni, and Bombay martini 👌🏽 🔥
Nice video, man. Very anti climactic as i was expecting you to be swarmed for that $600 lol. I gotta say tho, touching the glass near the rim like that is so cringey. In New York that is heavily frowned upon. Anyway, power to you and keep slingin them drinks!
Before you make each drink you should leave a note of what each drink is called .
It would help us learn what the drinks a called !
Drinks after he was eating:
5:30 - Vodka soda (soda on the side)
6:45 - Vodka Ginger Beer (ginger beer on side)
7:30 - Either Lemon Drop Martini or a Classic Daiquiri
8:45 - Draft Stout. Possibly Guinness
9:10 - Campari Spritz. Not sure which one though
11:48 - Cosmopolitan
13:14 - Negroni
14:40 - Gin Martini w/ Bombay Sapphire Gin
You work Monday - Friday right ?
We also use a bookers box for bitters at my place lol
It works perfect!
Nice bro! What sux is when you get used to those kind of tips then business sloooowwwwssss😢
Very true!!!
Can i enquire, what was the spritz with gin rosa, campari, champagne etc?
That’s the seaside rendezvous
1.5 Malfey gin
.75 oz Plum wine
.75 oz Yuzu
.25 oz campari
3 oz prosecco
Damn it poped up in my reco, but I can't watch after first cocktail. Chill your glassware, you have so much ice there to work with. Garnish??? 3 peanuts/cofee beans and it would be so much better. Good luck, we improve everyday as bartenders :)

Wowww my goodness what was that you did to the fever tree? And also the drink you made at 10:35 looks so delicious what was that!
I think it was simple syrup and lemon juice in the fever tree
Amazing man
Quality content!!!
Thanks!
I also want to do bartending 😊 love from india 🇮🇳 bro
Love back from Canada 🇨🇦 😀
Looks like the bar ..Where I used to work
Wow Amazing
I worked as a bar manager at a restaurant for 12 hours on a weekend day without tips, this was sad.
Me who is working 9hrs as a bartender with 0 tips a month..Sad
Do you often get paid tips in with credit or debit card? If so what does that process look like for you to receive those tips and are they taxed on your paycheck already?
Years back you'd claim say a $5 tip via the credit card transaction that you just closed out for a single customer. You'd do that however many times per shift and take the total of those tips out of the cash register. That claimed tip number is tracked easily. The restaurant would ask you to claim your cash tips also. If you made $100 in cash you'd undercut it and say you only made $75 or whatever you wanted to say to save a bit on the tax ahah.
I do believe this process has been adjusted in the last 5 years though.
Yes! It sucks. Debit/credit cards are a bartenders worst nightmare on busy nights. Then depending on the bar. The c.c. tip made. The employer will take out of yrr base pay check. Bartenders absolutely hate creit/debit cards. Cash is king in a bar.
Amazing
What kind of chest mount are you using for your camera?
What a great video ! I’m a new upcoming bartender any advice ? 🍹
Work hard and keep learning new techniques :):)
@@davidblake1 Thanks for the advice keep on shining !!🌟
insane tip. Bout to say, ain't no way you made 600 doing service bar drinks all night.
BOY THATS GREAT. LET THE GOV KNOW YOUR BUSINESS WAKE UP KEEP TO YOURSELF
I am honest... I would be deeply afraid to drink something there because of the peanut liquere `:D
What camera did u purchase for POV videos? A bartender from Australia. Love ur work!
Hey bud! It’s a go pro..you can buy a cheat strap for it!
0:24 what's the background song?
2:16 what's the background song?
i'm gonna make it happen again for myself
I can’t record customers at my bar. How can you?
I from georgia i wont working usa next yare am going usa can you recomended weach state usa bartenedrer work
Is the rent and cost of living expensive where you are?
Yes, Vancouver is the most expensive city to live in North America!
Don’t strain everything
Use the ice you shake it with and simply add more ice at the end. Take the “dirty” ice that you throw out and add up the liquor times all the drinks you make over that night. That is an insane amount if liquor you are wasting.
according to you, how much time will it take for an individual, to learn bartending. I wanna learn it for a part time job to pay my college fees
It depends how you learn and the type of person you are. I learned my way up through Barbacking which is basically working under a bartender and you get to see, familiarize and understand not only how to make cocktails/Liqours but the problem solving ability as a bartender. It took me less than 6 months to be fully confident running the bar by myself but still made many mistakes which I learned from. I did try learning the recipes by myself prior to landing a job behind the bar but your self confidence has impact on how you'll work as bartender with no experience. There is no specific time for the latter in my opinion :)
Hey bro I know we can earn tips but can you give me some advice how to earn more in more tips because also I want to become a bartender. Help me dear 😐
What's the average on a good night?

Yup! But the ones I’ve made many many times I don’t taste anymore
Very professional
12:16
больно смотреть на такую некачественную работу бармена
You need to put ice first in the glass, you have to learn how to shake and how to untap the shaker, you are fast yes but if you are getting so many tips then I m in the wrong place
Jiggers are too tacky and make it seem like the bar tenders don't know what they are doing :/
If you’re doing counts you have to account for air bubbles and inconsistencies in pouring time. Different syrups and citrus and spirits pour differently. Literally everyone has a different mental timer and most people are never going to be able to make 100 drinks the same way if you’re counting in your head especially when you’re having a conversation with someone simultaneously about what they want to order for example. As a server/bartender I prefer to see bartenders use jiggers. You say tacky I say counting looks sloppy and some might say lazy.
I never tip. You work for a salary and so do I. Why don't you tip me instead?
One of the worst bartender skills what i ever seen😑
this bar sucks
lol.
@@davidblake1 🤣🤣🤣
8:18 $450 tip for a cocktail with dirty water dripped in to start it off. American "bartenders" are hilarious.
