The physically and mentally exhausting nature of the Oktoberfest fortnight requires trust that’s cultivated in familiarity. Each server needs to know she can lean on her fellow team members when she’s endured so many boob ogles, grabby hands, and sawdust-covered blobs on the floor. Worming your way through 10,000 sweaty, beer-swilling revelers 12 hours a day for 16 days straight tests the limits of even the most crowd-loving extrovert.
Attending Oktoberfest in Germany has always been on my bucket list.
Oktoberfest is a bit like Las Vegas, you love it or you hate it. It’s basically just 8 huge tents offering worse food/service/beer than regular Munich beer gardens, in a crappier place full of idiots. There’s also a carnival/fun fair deal along side. I prefer Munich in the summer.
Well…thanks for ruining that for me! 🙂
