Updating this review because I had a dismal and unnecessary interaction with one of elsewhere bartenders.
I didn't get their name but it was a white male presenting person with long tawny brown blond hair and a septum piercing. 6/15 around 11:30 pm at the very end of the event
I was attending a wonderful event for Tales of a Cocktail x Espolon and at the end of the night I was trying to get my friend to register with Campari academy // the QR codes were all over the bar...
I asked "Hi do you guys still have any of the QR codes that were on the bar ? For Campari academy" and this person laughed in my face sneered at me like they were mocking me and said "i don't even know wtf that is" I clarified "oh the Pink QR codes that were all over the bar are they gone ?"
Again they repeated " i don't even know what you're even talking about .. so no"
The interaction was so rude and really put a bad taste in my mouth I went further and asked "oh yall probably threw them out already"
, i asked him "you work for elsewhere right? And not espolon"
- he laughed in my face again and said no ...
I was trying to be nice and remain positive so I told him "oh you should look into it then! You're a bartender right ? They do lots of free parties and events like this one"
His response was so nasty he smiles in my faces and said "yeah I don't wanna do that I don't really care" so I kept my composure because at the end of the day this was an event for all industry professionals, bar owners, bartenders LIQOUR reps, hospitality leaders etc- and this was the demeanor this person had....
I replied "oh you don't care huh? Well the information is there if you want it have a goodnight" and as I was walking away he said "I really don't"
This was such an unfortunate and unexpected interaction just a few days short of the NBA playoffs party I attended with NYx Cosmetics at Elsewhere.
- I work in hospitality because I genuinely want to be there and I want to give people exciting memorable experiences- not mock them to their face and try to make them feel small... read more
