Bar worker: Abbr. crossword clue
33 Down · WSJ Crossword, June 23, 2026 · 3 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Bar worker: Abbr.” is ATT. It appears as 33 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of June 23, 2026, a Tuesday puzzle titled “Partial Compensation” by Shmuel Schmell, and it fills 3 squares running top to bottom from row 7, column 5 of the 15×15 grid.
The shortening cue in the clue tells you to expect an abbreviation or initials rather than a full word. The entry begins with A and ends with T, and contains 1 vowel and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Tuesday puzzles stay approachable with light wordplay, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
