What a headline. My first thought was a landlord cracking open a barrel of beer and an illegal immigrant crawling out.
> „I’ve got a young team here, and they’re actually scared to approach people.“
I was about to despair at the quality of young teams ’nowadays‘, but then realised that she was talking about her staff and not Glaswegian gangs.
I don’t blame them (nor the publican). either min wage needs to go up or duty on alcohol needs to be slashed
I remember the old days when other customers would boo you out of a pub for opening outside drinks.
I imagine they aren’t so supportive these days
Not saying it’s right but the price of alcohol in pubs has a lot to do with it
I sometimes wonder if pubs could do what some restaurants do, where you bring your own alcohol, while they just serving soft drinks/food Would they be cheaper to run because they don’t have to deal with things like breweries and licensing?
I remember in my teens smuggling a six pack in my backpack and ordering one beer so I can keep refilling the glass. That way you get a pub experience on the cheap.
As a broke kid you can’t afford to pay full price in a pub/ live with parents who would not approve having your drinking mates over to drink supermarket booze / its Illegal to drink in public spaces like parks (also the weather is crap at the moment) So it’s either smuggle drinks or hide somewhere dodgy.
Have we lost the art of the hip flask?? Bringing a glass bottle feels insane
This was always a thing, in the 80’s gf would smuggle a half empty winebag in the handbag!
A lot of people with these „frugal“ life hacks actually require paying customers to subsidise them, which should come with a level of shame, but clearly it doesn’t.
