Honestly...by industry standards, very well. Hourly is $15, plus tips. I'd rather just make $30/hr and get rid of tips, but as far as options go in this particular sector, it's not bad at all.
Plus, we have free reign to 86 whomever we please (within reason, I suppose. I was specifically told I can’t just kick out anyone who disagrees with me politically, but aside from that...), and there's no weird corporate script - I regularly tell people who ask for light beer that we have a water tap, which I don't think would fly at Chili's - or uniform or anything like that. And we can drink on the job.
So...it's really a pretty good gig, all things considered.
Can't drink on the job and I don't get tips but I appreciate my gig as well. I get to geek out with customers and coworkers about beer and whisky even. Downside is that there are plenty of grumpy, miserable old boozers who buy cheap shit in bulk that I feel bad about feeding into their habit.
Our slogan is "drink better beer." Getting folks to do that is a mission statement that I am happy to oblige.
Yeah but, is the company you work for REALLY doing that? Are they compensating your well for it?

A brewpub, I'm guessing? That sounds great.
