Who wants to be a bartender?
All of the folks that come streaming in to fill out applications to work as one; the ones that attend bartending schools and every server I ever met. 
How I got started?
In a nutshell: I busted ass waiting on my tables and voluntarily barbacking for the senior (and I don't mean old aged!  ) bartenders -- at the same time. One weekend afternoon someone didn't show up and the GM pointed at me during shift meeting to step behind our best bar and tend (we have seven separate bars) solo. I never looked back.

| Got thrown right into the sattle. My friend hooked me up where he was a waitter. They had good people to show me the ropes and the what nots of tending. I fell in love with it and since I'm a college student thats about the best paying job there is for me to get. Beats the hell out of flipping burgers, I rather be flipping bottles and serving people their happiness and relaxation. I had to work hard to get where I am today but the pay off is so worth it. |

I have wanted to be a bartender for as long as i could remember, but some career choices had me working in advertising instead.
Untill about five years ago I helped out behind the bar at a friends party.
I dropped everything the next day and got back to my original dream.
I am now a bartender and loyal student of the trade.
