The first Friday of December is marked by a holiday – Thanks to the bartender, or Bartender Appreciation Day. This holiday originated in America. It is associated with the Sailor Jerry beverage brand, which is trying to spread the idea of this day around the world. She even sent a petition to the British government with a request to make this holiday official in the country and a day off for all bartenders.
The purpose of the holiday is to remind people about the work that bartenders do, about their service, and also about their human skills – the ability to listen, support a conversation, joke, be a solid shoulder on which you can lean, complain or confide secrets. Over the years, the work of a bartender has evolved from simply pouring drinks to a kind of psychotherapy.
Spend this day with benefit: prepare new drinks at home with friends or go to your favorite bar to taste them. Do not forget about additional tips, because they make up more than half of a bartender’s salary.
