how do you go and become a bartender? career?me a >> for me, it was because of the recession. toost my job and i needed pay rent. i had bartended in college and i said i would love to do it efficiently when i got a job. i loved the interaction. i loved all of the bottles behind the shelf and i thought, i could make a career out of this. when i started to make that jump, i saw how lucrative a career he can be and how wonderful the community really is. >> talk about the community at the dead rabbit, because that is a particular bar with a post together -- a particular philosophy. >> it is a family, honestly. working there is quite a dream. we focus on craft cocktails. we look at the initial cocktails from pre-prohibition ages and give them a modern tweak. that one of the first things that can happen at the dead rabbit is that people can be introduced to a punch that has alcohol or some kind of flavoring to it. who came up with that idea and what does that do for the atmosphere? >> one of the owners, his idea was that we need go to

but, if your bartenders are good, they can tell when they should not be serving someone, do you do bartender training >> they have done lead training. >> do you have bar meetings? regular bar meetings like once a month once a week or something in >> they have them every third weekend. noe. do you talk to them about drunk people. >> yes, one of the main things is for the door man and bartenders is try to strike up a conversation from the customer and there it helps with trying to figure it out. >> if the abc closed you down or took your license away for over service and then your bartenders would not be making any tips so it is in their interest not to over serve. >> and yes, on saturdays we are averaging anywhere from four to six people being cut off, i don't know if that is a large amount or a small amount, but doing my numbers over the past two months that is what we are averaging. >> so commissioners. we have had this presentation for over 35, 40 minutes, now. and i want to see which direction we want to take this mainly, and we can have the officer come up. >> that is what i want to do.

someone who had been a bartender for years had to start over as a bar boy working for 19-year-old bartenders. life was not always easy. but they kept moving forward. i know when they were my age or younger, they had dreams. they wanted to do things. but those dreams became impossible for them and the very purpose of their life became that that day would never come for us, that whatever we wanted to be, we could achieve. but i think that nights and nights like that were an affirmation that they mattered. that their lives have purpose. that they had something they were leaving behind that had true meaning. that their sacrifice was not in vain. that is a testament to my father and it is a testament to your parents, but it is also a testament to america. i recognize fully that there are not but a handful of nations where that story would even be possible. and in the end, what we are called to do while i serve and public offices to preserve that. i think being the kind of country is worth fighting for. i think being that kind of country is something we can unite our people around. i think we have

>> you make friends with the bartenders, when you are about to leave, don't leave yet, in 20 minutesng the prices to $2 a beer. then everyone stays. if it's in your best interest to be a very nice patron. john: everyone seems to have a gimmick that will work, this seems to work? >> it's a great place to know if you're not that discerning about the type of drink you want. john: one girl you talked with talked about gaming the men. >> i asked how much was that drink that you purchased. and looked at me funny and at the men opposite her, she said i'm not checking the prices. she's found a better way of gaming the system. >> the best gauge to start a business is how much economic freedom you have. there are rankings of countries, in your home country has passed the united states. >> it has. john: we used to be number 2, now 12. australia is number 3. how are things freer? >> well, i mean, i think that the australian government has really recognized that if you want to drive the economy, that you're going to have to encourage people to start businesses so they can create jobs. so they do

. >> my concept is a group of kids goes into a house party and goes to the "bartender" and orders drinks. but instead of ordering drinks, they're ordering car accidents. so, it's kind of a foreshadowing of what would happen if each of them drove home after drinking, and then the last friend, though, realizes that that's what's going to happen and decides to be the designated driver of the night and just orders a water. so, everyone thanks her, and we have a happy ending instead of a crash at the end of the night. >> and this is rick. rick will be your d.p. on the psa shoot. as you know, the idea is that it's a party. >> yes. >> and the kids will be over here. they'll be partying in this area over here. >> okay. >> just to be clear -- while we all know that teens should not be drinking alcohol, the point of this psa is to get as many teens as possible to act responsibly. if you can't stop your friends from drinking, you can at least stop them from driving. >> okay, guys, so, everybody sit down. let's go over the storyboards. so, as you know, storyboards are what you create in doing a spot

the bartender sees him pull out a bag of marijuana. the bouncer over to remove the customer. >> there are cameras up there. i am not going to lose my job over this bull [ bleep ]. get out. >> but robbins won't leave. he and the bouncer start to have words and a fight breaks out. 38-year-old lashon sawyer is the cook at the bar. the video shows sawyer walking back to the kitchen as patrons exit through the rear door. while he's there he says he makes a shocking discovery. >> as i was going over to close the back door, there was actually a gun on the floor. it stopped the door from closing all the way. >> sawyer feels he can't just leave the gun there so he says he picks it up. >> my intention was to take it to the bartender. that's who runs the place. >> meanwhile, a security camera at the bar's entrance shows customers running out after the fight. >> the bouncer is able to get robbins to leave, but he still lingers outside. >> the guys out front were still arguing with chris. he was standing in the doorway. a lot of threats were being

in the clubs, a lot of the clubs, bartenders and staff they come to the hearing office and we do the free screens for them, always, for 20 years. >> you know, if you can come, very soon, actually, our staff wears ear plugs, our bartenders, but if you need to start with the signs that will be great. we will take your signs. >> all right. >> the main purpose of grading these plugs in the club initiative is really getting out the information that this ordinance even existed because i feel like most people are not aware of it and so we really do want to work with the clubs of increasing signage and contribute our own signs in order for the patrons to be more aware of the clubs and i feel like most of the clubs do actually have ear plugs and me going to a lot of shows and just a lot of the patrons are not even aware. >> since this the public comment, we cannot have this dialogue, back with you and, we would love to see you come back with a presentation once the results are done of your study and once you have the findings of what you are finding in the field and i think that you have our

hell's angels identifiable wear assaulted a bar person and the person that went to the aid of the bartender to identify one of the suspects and that suspect was arrested this morning at the clubhouse and other evidence was gathered. there was original report that shots were fired, it was not the case. there was a flash bang that we use. nobody was injured, neither suspect nor police officer. finally next week is a big event here in the city for national law enforcement. the major city chiefs and resource form will be meeting in san francisco in the latter half of next week. i know director hicks was sharing she will also be attending. it's good the leadership of the national law enforcement is going to come to san francisco. in my time i don't recall them being here before as far as having one of their quarterly meetings here an hopefully this becomes a regular thing. that concludes my report. >> commissioner turman? >> are we planning any kind of event or reception or anything for -- >> the police executive form and the major city chiefs are pretty well conzeal organization. their calendar

if you go to a bartender and have five or six drinks, the bartender has to legally stop you from having seven or eight. you know what, there's something about that guy that says to me he shouldn't have a gun, and if you don't act on that, you're not obeying the law. is there any way to make gun salesmen be responsible for checking out the guy or woman who comes in and buys the gun who's got a mental disturbance under way? >> i think what we know is that is easier said than done. in fact, in this case, i'm not involved in the treatment, you know, i can't speak to it exactly, but what we do know is the police had been called to actually go and talk with him, and they, themselves, couldn't discriminate the fact that he was presenting danger, so to expect a shop owner to be able to do that may be above and beyond what we can hope for. >> expect bartenders to do it, i tell you that, they are not supposed to serve too many drinks to somebody. anyway, let me go back to patrick kennedy on this. it's a larger issue, and i know how much you care about the challenge of mental illness. tell me abou

no, i have my oldest one who's in college, he is -- for this summer he's going to bartending school. going to be more useful than the degree he's getting. >> jimmy: i think you're right. [ laughter ] i think that's a very good idea. >> in fact, he just texted me a picture with this very thick notebook and he goes, this is how many drinks i've memorized already. and he flunked a class this quarter. and i said, maybe if you had spent as much time on that class you wouldn't have flunked it. he said, but that class doesn't pay $200 a night. >> jimmy: that's right. you don't get tips in that class. >> that's right. >> jimmy: will he come back home and go to bartending school? >> well, you know, we moved this year, and we really liked this house, and we just -- we kind of didn't -- we didn't count the bedrooms correctly. >> jimmy: oh, really? >> we're one room short. and i thought after we bought, it geez, where's sam going to sleep? like -- >> jimmy: and is sam aware that he's now homeless? did you at least give him the address or are you holding that back? >> we said look, we know you lo

well, imagine a bartender. that same thing -- same concept is around a budtender.here are several elements for hiring. one, you need to qualify them. two, you need to on board them, meaning helping them to understand the culture of your company. three, they need to understand the new model of the customer that is buying cannabis. >> new things every day. >> like a bartender or somalia for weed. >> take your pick. >> i take somalia for weed. that's my pick. talk to us about the role that women play in the recreational weed business. they're actually a leading force, aren't they? >> well, that's actually really interesting. we have a testing and safety panel that's an all woman panel. it's how can you operate your cannabis industry, and how you package your product in terms of what you're representing. they are lab directors. they're also directors of some of the largest facilities here in colorado. >> i'm interested in one of those labelling issues. i guess you're going to be talking about edibles and how to indicate portion sizes on those. this is linings like mari

tries to implement or has implemented and we asked him, do you meet with the staff regularly or the bartenders and we meet with him every third weekend and do you do the bottle service and there is a server and a host for every, and each group that comes in, and so, i am hearing, and i am hearing alignment, actually, about what you are saying that he should do, and what he is saying that he is doing. and again, you know, without being there and having our eyes on there, every weekend and we are not going to know exactly how everything is run but it sounds like the intense and i am glad that you feel that you have a good relationship with him. >> and you know, i feel like, and this is just sort of my opinion, but, sometimes you know, that the responsibility does lie on the owner and the managers of that establishment, but you know, depending on what the crowd is, they may not have a lot of self-control or judgment and there are times that i know people think that they are fine and perfectly fine, and that, one final drink, at last call or whenever it is, pushes them over the edge and i think wh

we probably received one, and it was a long time when i first started there when i was a bartender and i would never take a party bus because those are always, i don't know how to say it in a nice way, the people that we would not want to have that would cause a problem with us that we don't want to deal with and the people that would not and would cause, like an issue with our community, as well. >> thank you. >> any other public comment? >> on cana? >> come on up and state your name. >> my name is mano and i am a 35-year resident at developing environment and a block away from cana and i am here to speak in support of officer parker's recommendations. i think that cana stepped into a situation that was auful for any business to step into. and they stepped into a war zone, that never got cleaned up. and i, i understand and i respect their need for extended hours, because that is how that runs. i would rather see them earn that because they stepped into the situation, we did not ask them to come and do this so that we could help them have this restaurant. >> and so, we, we are the ones

the males got cut off by the bar tener and did not take it too well and he cursed at the female bartender serving the drinks and not the best words and two security guards stepped in and asked him to leave, and while the friends were trying to help out and while being escorted out, he pumped into a patron at the front door and pushed him to get him out of the way, from there a security tried to detain the aggressor and fell and hit his head and bleeding and needed attention, this group was not a schedule bus and reported as a party bus. and we don't take bachelor parties, on buses after doing the research with the fellow employee, that we share the neighboring strip club, the buses go to a neighboring strip club and then to atmosphere there is a bus company that markets this right now that we don't work with that i am trying to figure out a way to address with them. 3, 21, sfpd reports the service and an allye, next to atmosphere of two unrulely males knocking over garage cans and being loud were attacked on broad way and montgomery, two males walked into the alley and did not get in line

in old oakland the bartender at district can serve a wide variety of alcoholic drinks. the liquor license is $25,000. in san francisco the owners can serve only wine and beer. they say an unrestricted liquor license would have cost them $200,000. so they decided to expand into oakland. >> it's more appealing in a sense that it's less expensive to do business out in oakland than it is in san francisco. >> reporter: the owners of a company supply plan to expand to this 24,000 square foot space in downtown oakland by september. the company moved its 53 employees into oakland last week. it plans to hire 17 more people. we asked the ceo an east bay native why oakland. >> it's a perfect place. proximity to everything. accessibility from b.a.r.t. there's already a great culture here. >> reporter: hodge an oakland native still livers in the west oakland home she lives in. she wrote an article about the concerns about the changes in this city. >> i don't want to say i'm against newness and culture shifting and changing. but what i'm against is people who have no place else to go
