09/01-03/09 - My life as a working Sommelier

Lazy lazy man. Tuesday the 1st was my Friday night, had Wednesday off, and Thursday was the beginning of my new week. A quick recap of sales: Tues night Yangarra Shiraz (was actually a very minor upsell, but FAR more suited to the menu for the couple) and King Estate Pinot Gris (when a table says it's their fave, you don't argue); Thurs lunch half bottle Willakenzie Pinot Gris, Thurs dinner Illahe Pinot (big upsell from Louis Jadot Beau Villages).

Both (ok, all three) shifts at work were frustrating to me. We'll leave it at that, with a serious undertone.

Other server has pulled ahead by a buck-60 in our mini contest. We go til the end of the month, and that's a pretty piddly-wink lead.
