Thank you sir do you want another?
Do you own or manage a bar in Bondi/greater San Diego? Are you looking for highly motivated bartenders who can mix the classics while regaling clientele with the best surf industry stories ever? Then have I got a deal for you!
Derek Rielly and I are looking for bar gigs and would you permit me a brief moment of honesty? It is my favorite thing about what we have built. There are no secrets ever. Just warts, sunshine and honesty.
BeachGrit does not pay our bills. We write books for our livings funneling this website’s earnings to those who actually deserve it. But let me tell you something about writing books. It is a curse. Something that provides the greatest fulfillment but pays oddly. You get a chunk here, a chunk there, but if you aren’t the best financial planner (just take one look at me and Derek) then it is difficult to stretch appropriately.
And so here we are.
Both of us loathe embarrassing advertorial and feel it poisons the well. If we pumped it out it would kill this thing we love. Both of us are, also, too aware that your crowd-funding dollars are absolutely tapped.
So hire us to mix drinks at your bar! I promise it will be a good time and that your regulars will get better than average mojitos, skinny margaritas, whiskey sodas and surf industry rumors that haven’t hit the wire yet.
I’m totally not joking.
If interested email.

[email protected] (for greater San Diego)

you guys should look into http://www.patreon.com
Derek, have you done your RSA certificate yet? Otherwise you may end up a glassy.
So what makes you think that you guys can bartend? Prior experience?
Maybe you should start by bussing tables or bar-backing to bolster your resumes, and then we will see if you can handle yourselves behind the bar, im sure you are just fine in front of it.
We report in two days! Non-disclosure agreement almost done.
Have you got a little Surf Ranch advent calendar on your bedroom wall?
don’t we all?
Obvs. My better half got to it first though and emptied all the little windows. So I will never know what it had in it. Chocolate? Wax? Chia seeds?
It’s definitely a good time to buy.
I say the BG community should install Brave browser on their devices, buy some BAT cryptocurrency and we reward our beloved surf journalists with that. How about that Chas and Derek? BAT is going up!
That way we will be using CC for what they are supposed to do, decentralizing and removing the middle man. Fuck those irrelevant, peanut paying ads!
Tried to buy BAT right when it was released, the amount of people also onto it was crazy
Also lately it’s been gathering traction. A lot of youtubers using it, apart from the coin being extended to other platforms besides Brave.
This is a good use of crypto.
Pay us in BAT to look at advertorials??? Beachgrit
Just run a fuckin advertorial or whatever they are, just find businesses trying to sell shit to cunts, I’m a cunt and I sometimes buy stuff, I don’t mind if it keeps the lights on here and a roof over your heads.
To keep those damn Okies…, sorry I mean Mexicans out
Am I still on for Snapper….I got big things planned.
Vegemite stand for Beachgrit correspondents, no Coronas in the air con. I’ll shout ya a beer or two.
alright mate, that sounds grand.
Yes you are!
Because they are both idiots? Or rich? Or both?
Derek you can work at my bar, it’s pretty much a back deck, regular crowd of a couple of dogs.
I love dogs! https://uploads.disquscdn.c…
Wht are you guys like at picking cotton and working in orchards? I here there’s work out California way
Now we’ve gone from Orwell to Steinbeck.
It’s an Orwell to Steinbeck kinda day as the boys put their pens away to pour pints (Down and out in Paris and London meets Cannery Row as mentioned above).The grapes of wrath will be squashed and served and the boys will realize at the animal farm bar that we are all equal ,but some a more equal then others .
2 shots are better than 4?
Open the “pop up” GRIT BAR….
Dbah during Quik pro, have a little smoking area for the pro free surfers that are a little uncomfortable about hanging at the contest site but contractually obliged to show their faces and Chas.
Hypto krypto currency… everyone except one guy loses.
I can imagine Derek lasting maybe two shifts at Bondi public… Should tap up Panama House, at least you can check the surf from there.
Why only two shifts? I have a ferocious work ethic. It’s the only ethic I have!
Bloody Protestants and their work ethic.
Is working in a bar really working though?
Every actor/model in Bondi has the bar gig stitched up. You should cast your nets wider. Would your wives be at all uncomfortable if you offered your services as male escorts. No lip kissing of course. Rimming optional.
Kissing is my favourite thing in the world. I’ll include! But no COMF.
COMB???
Definitely nothing to do with you more the clientele that drink there.
You’d have to ask Chas about that, or maybe a STAB staff member? as I’d like to think a memo was sent out…
I’d hate to tease, but it’s hilarious.
Notes of loving espionage!
Derek go work in Manly @ “The Steyne”
Are you the manager?
Sadly, no. But I always have a hell time there, looks like a fun place to slang drinks
That’s exactly what’s my (World of Warcraft) geek pillpoping mate told me one night when we were high 9years ago…
And he bought 20grandworth then ..
Ffffffffuuuuck.
Why do I get the feeling that Ass-tonne stirred up a bit of strife in the Smith household?
Wouldn’t you be better getting a paper-round?
Regular hours, regular money. A bit of excercise on the old BMX.
I’m sure the missus would let you take the bike in the car to get the tires pumped up at the gas station.
Good enough for BMX Bandit Nicole Kidman , good enough for BG
Paper rounds are shit. I worked like a dog for what might have been a century saving for a bike, which got nicked after about a week. I’d encourage my kids to deal meth before they started a paper round.
No offence intended to the artist formerly known as Julian’s Postie.
Be sure to buy XLM, XRP, FUN, LINK, BNB and REQ.
You gotta step in on the ground floor of Ghostface Killah’s cryptocurrency company CREAM Capital! Cash Rules Everything Around Me braddah!
What ever happened with that??
Probably still raising capital. Which, given the wild fluctuations in value as of late, is probably difficult. Ghost is good with the mathematics. He’ll get it done.
True.
He’s good with denominations up to fish scale, but these are bigger numbers.
Throw in some mayhem and protect ya’ nose…ya’ neck too
I know it’s satire of What Youth starting a gofundme for a surf trip, but I still enjoy it.
