Another
word for
bartender; probably a bit
archaic, but I kind of prefer it. In my mind, when I'm wearing an old-school
suit with
baggy pants and a big
fedora rather than the
T-shirt and
jeans I generally wear, I prefer the word barkeep.
"Hey barkeep! Lemme get another round here. And whatever she's having--tell her I like her smile. Hic."
