The pirate of the rum bar
I work in a rum and cocktail bar, today I was working the bar alone for the first time and dealing with an big group that had just turned up when I the vodka in my speed rail ran dry.
I reached up, got my next bottle and here's where I made my mistake, I usually pour a cocktail or 2 first and then marry up the the last bit that won't pour from the previous bottle into the new bottle as not to waste booze, this time in a hurry I married up before pouring from the bottle, without registering the alcohol was near the top of the neck I shoved in the speed pourer, the vodka shot out and went straight in my right eye. Shit hurt like a BITCH but I had to wait for my Co worker to come back from break, serving customers with one eye clenched shut, gained the title PIRATE OF THE RUM BAR by a customer and I think its gonna stick for a while!
