"Regular of mine who I hadn’t seen in a while was sitting at the bar when I came in for a shift change. I came in the back way and noticed he had crutches leaning against the bar.
Recently in the news someone hadn’t had their shotgun properly secured in their truck and it went off…So I jokingly say, “you’re that f@#king idiot who blew off his leg arent you?”
The whole bar gets quiet and everyone is mean mugging me. My regular starts laughing…
Yeah, it was him. I had no idea. I didn’t apologize, because as his favorite @$$hole bartender those comments were expected of me."
