In Orange Beach they're town employees and the umbrellas and chairs are property of Orange Beach.


Most of the rentals in Alabama(GS to Perdido) are Ike's(All the blue chairs and umbrellas), also an LSU guy FWIW

A few years ago the family is in Destin. The young umbrella guy seems friendly enough talking about where he’s from asking where we’re from and turns out he’s the nephew of a guy I went to HS with. Not long after I run into my old classmate and mention that I met his nephew. He starts laughing and tells me the kid is pulling a different chick every night. From 19 to 50, he’s having it all.
My buddy’s line was a classic... “he’s giving and getting tips all summer” !

But they said it was pretty miserable having to wake up that early 7 days a week and running through pop-up summer storms to put up the chairs and umbrellas.

The horror

I usually just buy an overpriced bag of weed from them. Seems fair.

They started working at like 5 AM 7 days a week and worked all day in the sun in the summer. They would make all this money and have absolutely no energy every night.

Obviously it could be worse, but it definitely wasn't easy.

I hand em 20 when I set them up. They always act happy and ask where I want to set up etc.

Males me think that that is about what most do or more

Either you or your S/O has to have sex with him.

Your choice.

My buddies did that for a few years at a very exclusive resort. They would often be tipped a fair amount, sometimes a few hundred dollars from the really high rollers.

Then they saw Richard Seymour from the Patriots and they hated dealing with him and he never tipped and was rude

I've never tipped them, never seen anyone tip them. At the Destin Gulfgate it's part of the condo rental and the guy never comes around.

Thought I saw signage indicating OB ownership on the crates they get the chairs/umbrellas from. Maybe not.

I always assumed those guys stayed massive amounts of poon. Just a revolving door of drunk chicks, a new set every week.
