Went from class to work and had a near sold out show on Tuesday for our year anniversary of not being sold/new partners buying in. Had a lot of great regulars show up to help celebrate and tip well to boot. Very fun night to work. I been having a lot of fun behind the bar lately and it's been paying off. I've had a number of customers tell me I was a great bartender, they like me, etc. I'm shocked how easy it is to be nice to people and how well they respond to as a bartender. I'm making more money and having more fun.
Course I wouldn't be me if I wasn't a grumpy asshole from time time to time and after telling the guys next door to get there damn cars out of my private lot by 6 (We actually let them park in lot during the day) I finally snapped when the same guy I told last week to move his car (At 7pm) left his car in the lot past 9pm last night and one of my staff had to park in the lot next to Hodi's. It's the same place him and our sound engineer were parked when their tires were slashed a few weeks ago. I decided to leave him this:

Strangely I don't see his car in my lot today. It may seem a bit harsh but I can't regret the letter, the profanity, or the fact I taped the shi*t out of the letter when attaching it to his window. And as mean as it is, I could have just towed his ass.
Class, work, done at 330am, bed at 5. Up at 1030 for work. Bleh....
