▪ Bully’s Pub & Grill

How long have you been a bartender? 2 years

First Job? Hooters

Best Part about working at Hooters? Hula Hooping while working

Ho do you deal with difficult customers? Just talk shit to them. Or ignore. them. OR sic my boyfriend on them.

Bar Fight Record? 0-0

Biggest Bar Tab You've Ever Seen? $2100 - Bottles of Tequila and Champagne, Tears of Joy

Have you ever had to confront someone for getting too frisky? Yes - I just tell them sorry, you probably need to shut up for a minute.

Afraid of Ronda Rousey? Yes

What pickup lines have worked on you? None. I'm a traditional girl.

How would someone pick you up? If I had to go through that again, it would be him catering to me, and everything I want, like bring me flowers, buy me dinner. It wouldn't be just some guy at the bar, though.

Smartest way to buy a woman a drink? That's a hard question, because it's like, creepy. I figure me telling them would be the best way, but it's kind of awkward.

Best way to get a bartender's attention? Say their name, duh.

What if I don't know their name? Hold money out!
