No one knows how much bartenders make more than me. I spend plenty with them and tip well enough to figure that they must be doing pretty well. I never figured they were doing six figures well, but again, it's not surprising. It's not unusual to see an old, career bartender who has made a very good living at the craft. The thing is that it's not for everyone. Not everyone can handle the intensity and hard work of being a bartender.
Tips are where you're going to find your real money, and to get good tips you need to not only be good at making the drinks, but also good at interpersonal skills. People need to like you, and it needs to seem like you like them. That's definitely not a skill everyone has. The tip and wage take home payroll can be anywhere from $45,000 to $73,000. It's even possible to bring in $100,000 per year.
Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.
So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.
Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
