Why are the Union Bartenders so Attractive?

By Opinion Editor 5 years ago

Admit it, it’s true.

Coming to St Andrew’s, we hear a lot about the town’s beauty. We hear of expansive golden beaches that reach into the North Sea, turrets and steeples puncturing the sky, majestic ruins enduring the ravages of time. What we do not hear about, however, is the beauty of the student body. That is not to say that we St Andreans are an ugly lot, as demonstrated by our fashion shows or even a brisk walk down Market Street on any given day. But the truth is that the beauty of our student body often pales in comparison to the environment in which we live. Indeed, for all too many of us, discovering the limited number of romantic options available quickly crushes those initial hopes of finding a dishy royal we all once had. 

The reasons for this are manifold. The small size of St Andrews is a contributing factor, as is the lack of a ‘thick but fit’ university equivalent nearby. However, there is one place where you are almost guaranteed to find a concentration of beautiful people: behind the bars in the union.

Talking to my fellow students, it is clear that I am far from the only person who has noticed this phenomenon. But why is this? Is there some genetic discrimination in the union’s recruitment policy? Have they discovered a mystery elixir while attempting to create new cocktails in Beacon Bar? If only we knew their secrets, then perhaps one day we could all attain a similar allure, raising the beauty levels of the student body to compete with that of the town itself. 

The first factor that needs consideration is the bartenders’ physical surroundings. As anyone who has been to some of the more extravagant events in St Andrews can tell you, sometimes just being in a grand or tasteful environment can elevate any selfie, no matter how drunk or sweaty you are at the time. The only problem is that the union is neither grand nor tasteful. Indeed, one St Feuddrews post accurately compared it to a dingy airport terminal. The lighting is unforgiving, the floor often sticky and, the last time I checked, a chunk of the bar itself had been chipped off. Furthermore, the union staff outfits are not what many people would call flattering. Then why do they still look so good?

Perhaps, then, the attractiveness of the bartenders is less to do with their environment and more to do with their position. They are, after all, the guardians of alcohol, custodians of the beguiling booze we need so much. One word from them and a night out in St Andrews, so dependent on intoxication, can be cut tragically short. Maybe this power is the secret to their attractiveness. But yet again, this explanation falls short. Seeing the way some of the more irksome students treat the bar staff, it is apparent that they do not always get the respect their position deserves. Their aura of attractive authority is quickly destroyed by the clicking fingers and drunken shouts of the students in front of them.

It seems that neither the environment of the union nor their role of serving drinks can fully explain the beauty of the union bartenders. Unless they really have created a mystery elixir in Beacon Bar, there is, therefore, no easy explanation for this strange occurrence. As a result, the rest of us may never know how to attain their levels of beauty. The bar may forever be a barrier to divide the attractive from the average, the composed custodians of alcohol from the hoards baying at the gate. But worry not. Once they pass us those Pablos and Club 601 starts blaring the best of its cheesy beats, we can feel satisfied that we can dance, sing, make fools of ourselves and enjoy the night while the bartenders, however beautiful they may be, remain trapped behind their barrier. What’s more, something tells me that none of us will weather the ravages of time nearly as well as St Andrews’ ruins, no matter how attractive we are today. 

In sum, the union bar staff may always be more attractive than us, but so will St Andrews. So let’s accept this reality, grab a drink at the union, and maybe talk to some bartenders while we’re at it.

  12. I have noticed that over the course of building a relationship with real estate proprietors, you’ll be able to get them to understand that, in most real estate purchase, a commission amount is paid. Eventually, FSBO sellers tend not to “save” the commission payment. Rather, they struggle to earn the commission by simply doing a agent’s work. In this, they commit their money and also time to carry out, as best they’re able to, the responsibilities of an real estate agent. Those obligations include displaying the home by marketing, offering the home to willing buyers, developing a sense of buyer urgency in order to prompt an offer, preparing home inspections, managing qualification investigations with the bank, supervising fixes, and facilitating the closing.

  68. Understanding COSC Validation and Its Importance in Watchmaking
    COSC Accreditation and its Demanding Criteria
    COSC, or the Controle Officiel Suisse des Chronometres, is the official Swiss testing agency that verifies the precision and precision of wristwatches. COSC certification is a sign of superior craftsmanship and reliability in timekeeping. Not all watch brands follow COSC accreditation, such as Hublot, which instead sticks to its proprietary stringent criteria with movements like the UNICO, attaining similar precision.

    The Art of Exact Timekeeping
    The core mechanism of a mechanical watch involves the mainspring, which delivers power as it loosens. This system, however, can be susceptible to environmental elements that may impact its precision. COSC-certified movements undergo rigorous testing—over fifteen days in various conditions (5 positions, three temperatures)—to ensure their durability and reliability. The tests assess:

    Typical daily rate accuracy between -4 and +6 seconds.
    Mean variation, peak variation rates, and effects of thermal changes.
    Why COSC Validation Matters
    For watch aficionados and connoisseurs, a COSC-accredited watch isn’t just a piece of tech but a testament to lasting excellence and precision. It symbolizes a timepiece that:

    Offers exceptional dependability and accuracy.
    Offers guarantee of superiority across the complete construction of the timepiece.
    Is probable to retain its value better, making it a smart choice.
    Well-known Timepiece Brands
    Several famous brands prioritize COSC validation for their watches, including Rolex, Omega, Breitling, and Longines, among others. Longines, for instance, offers collections like the Archive and Soul, which feature COSC-certified mechanisms equipped with advanced substances like silicon equilibrium suspensions to boost resilience and performance.

    Historical Background and the Evolution of Chronometers
    The concept of the chronometer dates back to the requirement for exact timekeeping for navigation at sea, emphasized by John Harrison’s work in the eighteenth cent. Since the formal foundation of COSC in 1973, the certification has become a yardstick for assessing the accuracy of high-end watches, sustaining a tradition of excellence in watchmaking.

    Conclusion
    Owning a COSC-accredited timepiece is more than an visual choice; it’s a dedication to excellence and accuracy. For those appreciating precision above all, the COSC accreditation offers peacefulness of mind, guaranteeing that each accredited timepiece will function reliably under various circumstances. Whether for individual satisfaction or as an investment, COSC-accredited watches distinguish themselves in the world of watchmaking, maintaining on a legacy of precise timekeeping.

    Nihai Dönemin En Büyük Popüler Casino Sitesi: Casibom

    Casino oyunlarını sevenlerin artık duymuş olduğu Casibom, en son dönemde adından genellikle söz ettiren bir iddia ve casino web sitesi haline geldi. Ülkemizin en iyi bahis sitelerinden biri olarak tanınan Casibom’un haftalık olarak göre değişen erişim adresi, sektörde oldukça taze olmasına rağmen güvenilir ve kar getiren bir platform olarak ön plana çıkıyor.

    Casibom, muadillerini geride bırakarak uzun soluklu kumarhane sitelerinin önüne geçmeyi başarıyor. Bu alanda uzun soluklu olmak önemlidir olsa da, katılımcılarla etkileşimde olmak ve onlara temasa geçmek da benzer miktar değerli. Bu aşamada, Casibom’un her saat hizmet veren canlı destek ekibi ile kolayca iletişime geçilebilir olması önemli bir avantaj sağlıyor.

    Süratle genişleyen katılımcı kitlesi ile ilgi çeken Casibom’un arka planında başarım faktörleri arasında, sadece ve yalnızca kumarhane ve canlı casino oyunlarına sınırlı kısıtlı olmayan kapsamlı bir hizmet yelpazesi bulunuyor. Atletizm bahislerinde sunduğu kapsamlı seçenekler ve yüksek oranlar, katılımcıları çekmeyi başarıyor.

    Ayrıca, hem atletizm bahisleri hem de bahis oyunlar katılımcılara yönlendirilen sunulan yüksek yüzdeli avantajlı bonuslar da ilgi çekiyor. Bu nedenle, Casibom çabucak alanında iyi bir reklam başarısı elde ediyor ve büyük bir oyuncu kitlesi kazanıyor.

    Casibom’un kazanç sağlayan ödülleri ve ünlülüğü ile birlikte, web sitesine üyelik ne şekilde sağlanır sorusuna da atıfta bulunmak gerekir. Casibom’a mobil cihazlarınızdan, bilgisayarlarınızdan veya tabletlerinizden internet tarayıcı üzerinden rahatça ulaşılabilir. Ayrıca, platformun mobil cihazlarla uyumlu olması da önemli bir fayda sağlıyor, çünkü şimdi neredeyse herkesin bir akıllı telefonu var ve bu akıllı telefonlar üzerinden kolayca erişim sağlanabiliyor.

    Hareketli tabletlerinizle bile yolda canlı iddialar alabilir ve maçları gerçek zamanlı olarak izleyebilirsiniz. Ayrıca, Casibom’un mobil cihazlarla uyumlu olması, ülkemizde casino ve oyun gibi yerlerin meşru olarak kapatılmasıyla birlikte bu tür platformlara erişimin önemli bir yolunu oluşturuyor.

    Casibom’un itimat edilir bir casino sitesi olması da önemlidir bir avantaj sağlıyor. Ruhsatlı bir platform olan Casibom, duraksız bir şekilde keyif ve kazanç sağlama imkanı sunar.

    Casibom’a üye olmak da oldukça rahatlatıcıdır. Herhangi bir belge koşulu olmadan ve bedel ödemeden siteye kolayca abone olabilirsiniz. Ayrıca, site üzerinde para yatırma ve çekme işlemleri için de birçok farklı yöntem mevcuttur ve herhangi bir kesim ücreti isteseniz de alınmaz.

    Ancak, Casibom’un güncel giriş adresini takip etmek de gereklidir. Çünkü canlı iddia ve kumarhane siteleri moda olduğu için sahte platformlar ve dolandırıcılar da ortaya çıkmaktadır. Bu nedenle, Casibom’un sosyal medya hesaplarını ve güncel giriş adresini periyodik olarak kontrol etmek elzemdir.

    Sonuç, Casibom hem itimat edilir hem de kazanç sağlayan bir kumarhane platformu olarak ilgi çekiyor. Yüksek bonusları, kapsamlı oyun alternatifleri ve kullanıcı dostu mobil uygulaması ile Casibom, casino hayranları için ideal bir platform getiriyor.

  93. 주식신용
    로드스탁과의 레버리지 스탁: 투자법의 신규 영역

    로드스탁을 통해 제공되는 레버리지 방식의 스탁은 주식 시장의 투자의 한 방식으로, 높은 이익율을 목적으로 하는 투자자들에게 매혹적인 선택입니다. 레버리지를 이용하는 이 전략은 투자하는 사람들이 자신의 자본을 초과하는 금액을 투입할 수 있도록 함으로써, 주식 시장에서 훨씬 큰 힘을 행사할 수 있는 기회를 공급합니다.

    레버리지 방식의 스탁의 기본 원칙
    레버리지 방식의 스탁은 일반적으로 자금을 차입하여 투자하는 방식입니다. 사례를 들어, 100만 원의 투자금으로 1,000만 원 상당의 주식을 취득할 수 있는데, 이는 투자자가 기본적인 투자 금액보다 훨씬 더 많은 증권을 구매하여, 증권 가격이 상승할 경우 상응하는 더 큰 이익을 얻을 수 있게 됩니다. 하지만, 증권 값이 떨어질 경우에는 그 피해 또한 증가할 수 있으므로, 레버리지 사용을 이용할 때는 신중하게 생각해야 합니다.

    투자 계획과 레버리지 사용
    레버리지 사용은 특히 성장 잠재력이 높은 기업에 적용할 때 도움이 됩니다. 이러한 사업체에 큰 비율을 통해 투입하면, 잘 될 경우 큰 수입을 얻을 수 있지만, 반대 경우의 경우 많은 위험성도 짊어져야 합니다. 그러므로, 투자하는 사람은 자신의 리스크 관리 능력과 장터 분석을 통해, 어느 기업에 얼마만큼의 투자금을 적용할지 선택해야 합니다.

    레버리지 사용의 장점과 위험 요소
    레버리지 스탁은 높은 이익을 약속하지만, 그만큼 큰 위험도 따릅니다. 주식 시장의 변동성은 예측이 힘들기 때문에, 레버리지 사용을 사용할 때는 언제나 상장 추세를 정밀하게 관찰하고, 피해를 최소화하기 위해 수 있는 전략을 마련해야 합니다.

    맺음말: 조심스러운 고르기가 필요
    로드스탁에서 제공된 레버리지 스탁은 막강한 투자 도구이며, 적당히 활용하면 많은 수익을 가져다줄 수 있습니다. 하지만 큰 위험도 생각해 봐야 하며, 투자 결정이 충분한 정보와 신중한 고려 후에 진행되어야 합니다. 투자하는 사람의 금융 상황, 리스크 감수 능력, 그리고 시장 상황을 생각한 조화로운 투자 계획이 핵심입니다.

As people say, the devil is in the details… And that couldn’t be much more accurate in this article. Having said that, let me inform you precisely what did deliver the results. The text is certainly highly engaging and that is most likely the reason why I am taking an effort in order to opine. I do not make it a regular habit of doing that. Secondly, whilst I can easily see the jumps in logic you make, I am not really sure of how you seem to connect your ideas which in turn help to make your conclusion. For now I will, no doubt yield to your issue but wish in the future you actually link the facts better.
