How long have you worked there? I have worked at Floyd’s for 3 1/2 years! Worked at both locations (Webster & Pearland.)What’s it like? I love it! It’s a great bar crowd and I know 80% of my customers by name.
What is it about bartending? I have worked in the kitchen, been a hostess and a server…all good, but bartending lets me be myself.
What is it about bartending the customers don’t know? It’s a therapeutic relationship.
Signature drink? Bloody Mary.
Let’s talk about “Office Space” and “Waiting…” “Waiting” hurt the restaurant industry as a whole. The servers in “Office Space” wore flair and that’s a good way to express yourself.
Any tips worth mentioning? Yes! I received a $300 tip one night. And another night I met Clay Walker and received free show tickets! (Thanks again Clay if you’re reading!)
When not bartending, I am… DJ’ing around town!
Who inspires you? My mother Linda. She passed away five years ago. She was the strongest person I know and a fighter.
