You gotta put the terrible songs on right before you leave.
I once played “only you” like 6 times somewhere and by the fourth time they were looking for the son of a bitch that did it.
I also worked at a bar once that had this BITCH of a lazy shitty bartender. She HATED RAMMSTEIN.
So when she’d disappear for a smoke, I’d run to the juke, and put $10 worth of Rosenrot ($1 a song back then) and then run back to what I was doing before anyone saw me.

I put Gojira's Art of Dying on in a bar that was more of a Zac Brown place. They cut it off a couple minutes in, my Touch Tunes account was banned, and the songs I had in queue were wiped.

I used to play "meatloaf - I would do anything for love" about 3 times in a row whenever I came across a jukebox to get a reaction from people. It's like a 13-minute song. It usually wasn't a good reaction.

I downloaded the TouchTunes app and would do drive by torture runs of all the local bars that had those jukeboxes. I'd play the dumbest shit I could think of based on the "vibes" of the bar. Country bar? You get Lil Jon. Fancy yourself a bougie spot? Gwar. Hard to tell or neutral bar? The Macarena. I was in my early 20s and a prick

Wonder if she ever gave back that stolen land her mansion was sitting on after that Native American tribe came forward 🤔

Applebees is a low-middle quality chain restaurant. Creed is a late 90s early 00 rock band. Touch tunes is like a jukebox to play the music. Dollaritas is a low cost alcoholic drink.
Dude is getting hammered at a cheap chain restaurant and forcing everyone to listen to this music.

Additionally, the waitress is getting tipped less because he's buying the cheapest alcohol available, dollar drinks, while putting 20s in shitty music.

It’s literally only like this because no matter if you like it or not, you’re gonna have a group of low quality humans who are only able to do a low quality job with low quality standards. You, Pam, what you can be happy they’re employed because in any other society anywhere outside of America, they would’ve been left for dead or starving and begging on the streets

Dude... what is wrong with you. Everyone started out doing a what you call low quality job. I have done waiting it's not for the weak. I don't blame her for hating her job. I expect it. I don't expect the best from Apple bee's customers. But to be honest fast food and service jobs are not easy. Most people who talk shit on other people's jobs. Would not be able to handle them. I used to work at sonic I had to train managers on how to make stuff. Most managers were way out of their league. They couldn't keep up or keep a handle on random bullshit that arises. Most people have no clue how hard something is unil they have done that job. I also waited that is not easy. You are managing a thousand things at once.

One of the bars I used to be a regular at had a sign that stated: No trolling the jukebox. You know who you are. All Nickleback songs will be skipped and no refunds.

She's just getting mentally prepared for yet another fake christian pamphlet left as a "tip" while her bosses steal her minimum wage and lie to the government about how many tips she earns, so they don't have to pay the minimum wage to her, as is legally required.
Oh, and if she tries to hire a lawyer, they won't take her case, as it won't be very profitable for them. True story, and a personal one.

I've tried reading rooms before using those, play some music i think they'd like, but it would be 50/50. So now i just play "Straight to Hell" by The Clash and "Pink Triangle" by Weezer back to back

We had a guy playing terrible music in the bar we were at. We ended up paying the premium to skip his songs. We realized we were sitting right next to the guy playing the terrible music and didn't tell him. He was telling us how pissed he was about it but we never told him.

I like sneaking in some wheeler walker jr. Into those smaller dive bars with a couple pool tables. Specifically "family tree" Because of where I live it's almost always the same sounding country songs or divorced dad rock so me and my buddies get a pretty good kick outta watching people slowly get upset once they actually listen to the lyrics

I hate jukeboxes because mainstream acts are so meh to me. Music that appeals to the masses is always watered down.
