BEING A BARTENDER at Glo in Long Island, I hear a ton of pickup lines. If I had a dollar for every time a guy tried to pick me up by telling me he was a millionaire, I'd be able to tell him I was a millionaire too.
I ONCE RECEIVED a $100 tip for an order that consisted of a bottle of water. So at least I'm doing better than the guys selling water outside the Holland Tunnel.
WHEN I WAS younger I'd get drunk, take my tank top off and walk around in my bra all night.
I'M FROM COLOMBIA, which means I grew up speaking Spanish. Add to that the loud music at Glo, and it's hard for me to hear most of our customers. I don't think they mind, though. I think they secretly like that it gives them an excuse to lean in and brush up against me.
