The Journey of a Beer
This is a short story on the tipping culture in Canada, & the extreme entitlement it creates.
Deep in the heart of golden barley fields, a farmer rises at dawn. His hands are rough from years of toil, but he takes pride in his work. He nurtures the crops, battles the elements, & harvests each grain with care. He loads the barley onto a truck, never once thinking to ask for a tip.
At the malting house, workers soak, germinate, & roast the barley, transforming it into the foundation of a great beer. The air is thick with the scent of caramelized grains. They shovel, they sweat, they perfect their craft-no tip jar in sight.
The malt travels to the brewery, where brewers measure it carefully, mixing it with water, hops, & yeast. Steam rises as they brew, tasting & adjusting, ensuring perfection. Fermentation begins, weeks pass, & they watch over the beer like devoted parents. Not one of them asks for extra cash.
Bottlers & keggers work tirelessly, sealing the liquid gold into glass & metal. Truck drivers haul the beer across cities & towns, navigating traffic & deadlines, all without demanding a gratuity.
Finally, the beer arrives at a bar.
A greasy, lazy bartender pulls a tap handle, filling a pint glass in seconds. With minimal effort, they place it on the counter, then look up with expectation, immediately bitching for a tip.
Meanwhile, the farmer, the maltster, the brewer, the packager, & the driver all carry on with their work-never once expecting a tip.
If you don't like your salary, take it up with your management & your government, little guy.
I don't owe you anything, if am feeling generous enough, I might tip, IF your service is exceptional.
Otherwise, stay quiet & do your job like the rest of us!View more

Très bonne ambiance, nourriture extra. Volume de la musique un peu fort pour s'entendre discuter.View more

Super disappointing. I used to really enjoy coming to this pub, but tonight was a big disappointment. My burger & fries were flavourful, as usual. But they were served lucwarm, by staff who really couldn't care less. No checking in to see how I was enjoying it or if I needed anything.
Which brings me to the staff. The place was quiet, not surprising for a Sunday evening. But the staff seemed more interested in chatting & looking at their phones than tending to their few customers. It took the staff about 20 minutes to clear my empty pint glass & I basically needed to send up a flare to get another pint.
While this used to be my favourite traditional pub in Montreal, it has a lot of improving to do to make it back into my list.View more
