Subject: To all New York & Strong Island Bartenders
From: Bartender behind the grassy noll

Hi Everyone,

My name Pedro & I’m a Bartender in S. Beach, Florida. For the last month I 
have been looking for work down here, but it’s getting pretty pointless. I’ve 
bumped into a lot of guys who have been looking for over 3 months. The problem 
in South Florida is Sexual Discrimination against Male Bartenders. All the 
Bars down here want Hot women w/ Big Breast & Tight Round asses, don’t get me 
wrong that’s what I look for in a women too ;-) , but it’s killing me 
professionally. 

Yesterday I was talking to a guy that has Bartended in L.A. (I believe that’s 
where he’s from?) & N.Y. , he told me N.Y. was the best place he has 
Bartended, that the Industry in N.Y. doesn’t have the Cluster F#$k Problems 
that we experience in S. Florida. I told him I’m from Strong Island, and that 
I wanted to go back home, but didn’t think the Industry in N.Y. was doing to 
good after September 11th.  He said he talked to his buddies in N.Y. and they 
said that things were Great! He himself just wants to  work one last season 
here and then go to N.Y. 

What I was hoping to hear from my fellow Bartender in N.Y. is:

1)How are things in the Business over there?

2)Is Sexual Discrimination a big problem in N.Y.? I imagine it’s a problem 
everywhere but how bad is it?

3)What are the High Seasons in N.Y.? I never Bartended in N.Y.?

The above questions go for Long Island too. You would really be helping out a 
fellow Bartender. I’ve recently decided to better myself as a Bartender; I’m 
just starting to study Wines, More Cocktail Recipes & Extreme Bartending 
(Flair). I quit Smoking & Drinking (the drinking is just until I get back in 
shape) 

Take care & Happy Bartending!!
