    Today on Bartenders Watch Bar Rescue, bartender Alan reacts to Jon Taffer's rescue of Ripper's Rock House, a bar owned by former Judas Priest lead singer, Tim "Ripper" Owens, and a businessperson, Micah, whose restaurant has built a horrible reputation from the beginning as a very inexpensive wing location that is riddled with biker gangs who don't tip.

    I think the owner saw The Blues Brothers, where everyone threw glasses at the stage in the bar, hence the plastic cups.

      I once played a gig in 98 in Parkersburg, Wv, and there was chicken wire on the stage and it held back the bottles. My mandolin was filled with glass by the end of the 4 hrs. Great memories

    I had to talk a number of coworkers in the restaurant business off the edge from walking out. I worked as a kitchen steward in a fine dinning establishment whose executive chef was james bear nominated repeatedly. My glass and silverware polishing station was by the employee entrance and where employee drinks were kept. So anyone on the verge of breaking down came by me...and there were days i was the one breaking down. The maitr'd was a former marine drill Sargeant and still acted like it.

    Wait a minute, 'Ripper'...your name is on the bar but it's 40/60 in favor of somebody else?! Trouble ahead. 🤦🏾‍♂🤦🏾‍♂
    19:16 - 19:44...Alan, I appreciate your remarks on dishwashers being essential to restaurant and bar kitchens. I've had 2 trainees a while back in a fine dining restaurant I used to work in on a Christmas Eve service...I remember this like clockwork. Those 2 trainees washed exactly one pan each, asked me if they could the restrooms to which I said they need to check with the managers, they get the okay and somehow disappeared from 4:30 to just after 11:30 that night. Turns out they partied the night away at a nearby pizza joint. All the while I'm back there trying to hold the fort both in dishwashing and help with food prep, so you can imagine how pissed I was. I don't get it...dishwashing is one of the easiest jobs you can get but somehow it's taken for granted way too often, it just angers me.

      Were they on probation period? I would have fired them right off the bat. A bathroom break at the same time during service should already been a red flag.

      They stayed open until September 2016, so for just under a year. They closed due to commitments both the owners made to other ventures .
