To the person who barfed at my bar on Sat, thanks! Nothing tops off a ten hour shift like cleaning up your puke that you apparently just couldn’t save for a toilet, outside, or anywhere besides the chair cushion next to you. Next time make it to a toilet, asshole.
—Cleaning up after you sucks

LOL. That made me laugh. Perfect story for this holiday season.
Haha, what do you expect at a bar around the holidays?
The servers at “your” bar ought to be cognizant of “over service” and prevent the puking before it starts.
I hope it was at Pogue Fado. :):)
yup, had they not had the 4 beer to down per hour, they might not have spewed their guts all over the place.
I had a friend who up-chucked in a booth at Freeman’s one night. I haven’t been able to set foot inside since, lest I break out in laughter.
Ehrrr OP, isn’t that what you signed up for when you decided to work at a bar? Fever, come back to Freeman’s, I’m doing a Saturday afternoon gig there starting after the holidays. Actually, come all you fellow bitchers, and show your bitching support. Wouldn’t that be weird though? It would be fun for everyone to be anonymous so we could have fun guessing who everyone is. Unfortunately, I guess it wouldn’t be to hard to figure out my secret identity.
Unfortunately people think that whe they go to a restaurant or bar it’s an excuse to become pigs. The bartender should go to the patron’s home and puke all over the place after spilling drinks and throwing garbage on the floor.
I’m shocked that OP isn’t bitching about a tip while at it.
maybe it was shitty food ? haha!!!! Anyone check to see if it looked like your fresh food ? OH well lack of nothing say here cause I kinda can’t stop laughing !!!! Well atleast they coulda told you they blew supper on the seat at the minumium so atleast you wouldn’t have been that pissed at cleaning up gark !!!!
Haha, I used to work in the kitchen at Freeman’s on Quinpool a few years ago. If you think puke in the bar is bad, you should see the kitchen at Freeman’s on Quinpool, or just about any kitchen for that matter. Old as hell and fucking filthy! I hope they’ve finally fixed that leak in the ceiling above the pizza toppings.
The tall chick that runs it now though (forget her name) is awesome. The nicest manager and one of the nicest people, period.
if heard of the kitchen at freemans being like that – henceforth the “shitty food ” comment meaning maybe dirty , Eather way bestg to just drink at freemans and leave the puke at the door haha
Whenever you’re at any pub it’s probably best just to drink and eat only deep-fried foods for your own health and safety. Same applies when travelling in third world countries.
Perhaps you shouldn’t work in a place that encourages this behaviour, after all, I am sure they didn’t happen to get drunk by mistake at your bar?
It would be like working in a restaurant, and hating the fact you have to clear plates…..
