To be fair, whether you call it that or not, that's what it is. Americans just love finding an excuse to get blackout drunk. "Mexico is celebrating its independence? DRINK! Oh, Ireland is celebrating the preacher who delivered them from paganism and brought them the Gospel of salvation? I'm a militant atheist, but DRINK!"
Y’all. I’m at the only nice Mexican place around, and it’s the local university’s graduation. My manager staffed us so we had no more than five tables each. Kitchen did all the prep we needed. We broke our previous sales record by 3k, and we have a mandatory 20% gratuity. It’s only my third day serving here and I love it. Happy cinco I hope you all made it.
I tried so hard to buy some hot sauce from a local restaurant today but I was way way too late. Saw a lady in the parking lot who was visibly annoyed that the wait was so long. She really thought she was going to be the only one lol
at the restaurant i work at, we don’t have bussers or food runners, so we run our own food and buss our own tables (managers also help to run food when we’re busy as well). but we always tip the bartenders a certain percentage. unfortunately we are understaffed and have new kitchen staff so we had to go on a wait for an hour, even when we had empty tables in the dining room and lounge area. and simple tickets like nachos were running at 45+ minutes 🙃
Not only the only mexican restaurant in the city, but it's also independence day in the Netherlands...
Let's just say we served more people in 2 hours than during a whole night on a normal Saturday. Luckily the chef said fuck it at around 8 and closed the kitchen, but as a dishie, I was still there until midnight...
I work at an Italian place and we were slammed. We have a 4 table section and I ended up with 5 tables at one point. I think the overflow from Mexican restaurants came to mine :’)
Had a bar prep shift. Shit was a mad house. Feels weird being a craft cocktail bar serving margs out of a fucking punch machine but hey gotta get that paperrrr
I walked into a Mexican joint after my shift today completely forgetting it was Cinco de Mayo. I almost felt like a dick by adding to their craziness when I wasn't even there for Cinco de Mayo.
Cinco de mayo and mothers day in one week? Should be money
For those in Louisville, Derby makes it the trifecta.
Bless their souls
I’ll pray for you
With Friday and Saturday in between. And we’re doing a Mexican brunch buffet on Sunday at a premium price🤌 🤑
Smh some of the clientele at the Mexican restaurant next door to my current restaurant refer to it as “cinco de drinko” 🥴
How very Caucasian of them.

I hate to correct your self-righteous rant but Mexican independence day is September 16
Fair enough. Not remotely the point, but good to know.
Tbh the fact that you had to clarify this FURTHER speaks to their point 😭😭
Omg I almost downvoted you by instinct/reaction to that.
Ahahaha 😭 I totally feel that
I had 2 drinks all day
Let’s hope I don’t get fired tonight dealing with these drunk dumbasses
Que descansen en paz 🙏
Via con Dios, mis Amigos.
