The man threw a twenty onto the bar before walking away.
Dave handed the bill to me. “Your first tip!”
I giggled as he twirled me around, singing along to the song Chase was belting out on stage.
“Hey, New York!”
The smile left my face when I saw who was calling me. “Oh, look! It’s Jake the Douchebag!”
Jake grinned. “You remembered my name. I’m touched.”
I gave him my signature eye roll. “What do you want?”
“A Heineken.”
Dave was already reaching into the cooler for the bottle.
“You work here now?” Jake asked.
“No.”
Dave popped the cap off the bottle and slid it onto the bar. “You should. We would have so much fun.”
“I don’t know how to bartend.” One of my eyebrows arched. “Is Donnie even hiring?”
“He always says that he wants to hire someone, but he never does.”
“This tip is for you,” Jake shouted, placing a folded up bill onto the bar. “Love the dress, by the way.” He winked, and headed back into the crowd.
I scrunched my face up in disgust. “Do I have to deal with guys like him a lot?”
“All the time,” Dave said matter-of-factly.
I unfolded the bill and my mouth dropped open. “It’s a hundred!”
“The perks of being a female bartender. I’d get double what I make if I had tits like yours.”
I held the hundred out to Dave. “Here. You have it.”
He shook his head. “That’s yours. You just made one hundred and twenty dollars in five minutes.”
I started to laugh. Dave laughed with me, which only made me laugh harder. Before we could stop ourselves, we were doubled over with laughter, and had no idea why.
Donnie appeared in front of us, an amused expression on his face as he watched us laughing hysterically. “What’s so funny?”
I wiped my eye, and tried to breathe. “I just got tipped over a hundred dollars, and I didn’t even do anything.”
“You should hire her,” Dave shouted. “Look at her.” He gestured to my dress.
“Stop that,” I said, swatting his hand away.
Donnie raised his eyebrows. “Do you know how to mix?”
“I have not one single clue.”
“I’d train her, obviously,” offered Dave.
“What if I didn’t pay you, and you just worked for the tips you made?”
