'Bottle Girl' Shares How Much She Makes In Tips In Just One Night—And BRB, Switching Careers

'Bottle Girl' Shares How Much She Makes In Tips In Just One Night—And BRB, Switching Careers

Let's be honest, sometimes it's really easy to assume another person leads an easier life than us.

When they appear to be making more money than us, or we think they're prettier than we are, we might even become jealous about the life that they lead.


And TikTok was having a really hard time keeping their jealous feelings at bay when Nina, @ninageruntho on TikTok, started posting about her life as a "Bottle Girl" at a party venue in Scottsdale, Arizona.

In her latest video, Nina shared her first experience working in the pool area of the club, which also appeared to be the VIP section of the bar, which typically requires a minimum expenditure and gratuity in order to enter the area.

You can watch the video here:

But what becomes clear from watching the video is viewers weren't necessarily envious of Nina's job, though it looked like a really fun time for everyone.

Rather, they were in awe of the size of the tips Nina was able to receive, including one in which her customers spent $9,291.55 throughout the night and then tipped her an additional $1,800. Another table spent $10,855.14 before tipping her an additional $3,000.

Though it was unclear whether she had to split her tips or not, Nina had made $4,800 from tips alone, at only two tables.

In most of the service industry, quality tips are difficult to come by, and the amount Nina made from two tables could easily take several months to duplicate in a restaurant chain.

Some joked they were absolutely working in the wrong industry.

Others seemed to genuinely wonder how someone got started as a Bottle Girl.

A few were more focused on the girl who clearly wasn't happy she wasn't the one to work the pool area.

Though making a living and building savings is hard, it's still refreshing to see someone who is able to be financially comfortable.

But while we can be happy for Nina, we can all admit we secretly wish it was happening for us, too... and maybe consider changing our career path.
