I’m
always amazed to find (male) Asian-American bartenders; there just aren’t many
of them – maybe because of stereotypes, where they can’t be a guy’s guy who a
guy would want to hang out with, or a guy who a girl would want to hit on?
Anyhow,
the other week I was at the bar in this one (Mexican) restaurant, and the
bartender was Asian-American, oddly.
I talked
to him some when he was mixing drinks near me, and it turns out that his
parents are Mongolian and won the immigration lottery and came to the U.S. with
him and his brother when they were young, and they’re still here now, but the
parents finally decided to move back to Mongolia, now that their children are
set up and have a better chance in life.
He also said
he has a business degree from a local state university branch, but it’s “too
generic” and he’s having a hard time finding a real job.
