Ireland: A journey to Europe’s wildest economy

If a journalist came to Dublin to write an article about the recession, they’d have bad luck to run into Agustín López. The sommelier from Mendoza, Argentina moved to the city four months ago and found work precisely three days after arriving, without speaking English or any prior experience, in one of the most vaunted establishments in Temple Bar, the legendary pub district in the Irish capital. The 25-year-old López was trained in the world of wine and worked in wineries in his native land, but wanted to learn about whiskey, so he packed his bags. Now, he studies industry magazines during slow times, which are few and far between because in his workplace, full of nooks and crannies and literary references, the drinking is non-stop, from morning to night, by locals and foreigners alike. He has no complaints — the math is working out great for him: “The salary is $2,500, but tips can be over $115 on any given day, up to $230 on a good day,” he says.
