5 Ways Customers Instantly Annoy Your Bartender!

Every drink has a story, and every shift has a moment that sticks with you! Welcome back to another episode of Bartender Bangaz with your host, Mark "The Shark"! 🦈🍸This week, Mark is hanging out on the deck with coworker, veteran bartender, and Long Island native, Angel Moon! From starting out handling multi-role shifts at JJ Coopers in Long Beach to pouring drinks at college spots, chains, and iconic venues like The Villager and McGrath’s, Angel has seen it all. She’s dropping unfiltered truths on staying too long at bad-fit jobs, handling workplace drama, and the infamous story of how she got fired from Chili’s over a $6 order of chips and guacamole! Plus, we dive into the wild side of nightlife—from crazy shift encounters (like acid offers behind the bar) to customer pet peeves like string ordering and constant demands for phone chargers. Stick around as we do an on-air taste test of X-Tini canned espresso martinis and break down what it really takes to survive the hospitality grind.
