In all the years I have been going there, I can't recall one of the employees ever leaving with a customer. (Not to say they didn't meet up after work). They do quite well, even (or possibly especially) the older gals, as many of them have waited on the same customers for decades. A lady's drink or three, tips now and again (or quite frequently), gifts from customers returning from jobs abroad; they appear to do fairly well seeing how long many of them have stayed. I know two cases where waitresses have married customers (and I am sure there are others). In one case, it was about twenty years ago and is still going strong. In the other, it's been twelve years or so and also going very well. It's an older established guy that tends to frequent the place, and they are generally there for a drink with their mates, a chat with one of the girls they know, and food prior to heading out for the evening.
