How do you think we all got started

Good luck man

How is it going so far

Hope it’s going well! :)

Go for it, You're going to love it once you are behind the bar. Have fun with memorizing recipes and work on your physical skills when it is slow at the bar. You'll do great.

A Bar Above I recently applied to work at this one bar, I really was dying to work there, wrote a nice little cover letter for them and everything and they got back to me saying "We don't care that you don't have experience so long as you have the attitude and enthusiasm, which you got!" Basically, and I got an interview and they seemed to love me when I went, they told me when I'd be working and who I was gonna train with and they just made it look like I HAD the job, I was so excited but then about a week later they emailed me saying that I didn't get the job due to my lack of experience and they said they were happy to give me some feedback and tips, to which I happily accepted but it's been another 2 weeks and they never gave me any of that. So now I'm sad and don't have a clue how to start haha..!

You are already off to a great start, keep going down your list of bars that you want to work at and eventually you'll find a spot. You may want to (politely) keep in touch with the bar you interviewed with as well, even if its just stopping in for a drink from time to time. You never know what could happen. I know it's extremely difficult to find bartender candidates in the Bay Area. Good luck

A Bar Above Alright, thank you so much for the helpful tips, appreciate it!

TLayla that is so like me but trust me experience is the best teacher.

Congratulations and have a great time behind the bar. More importantly make sure your regulars have a great time at your bar :)

You're going to love it

You are going to do great and hope you love it.

there isn't a certification. you could attend a bartending school/class and get a certificate. you do need a servsafe certification to work.

Bar back

How's college going Jarred? Are you tending bar anywhere?

Literally the whole video ?

Conseguiste seguir o teu sonho? Espero que sim! :D

Because you will be expected to move quickly, lift heavy cases from time to time, getting cuts from broken glass is not uncommon, and you are constantly bending over an ice well to create cocktails. Your knees, backs and wrists will be sore until you build up your muscles/ stamina to get through a shift. On the emotional side there are so many things that you have to worry about, but this is a high pace environment and as you get busier, its natural that your anxiety level begins to climb as well. This can happen every day behind the bar and one of the easiest ways to unwind is to drink after your shift. It's easy to get caught up in making unhealthy choices as a way of blowing off steam. The emotional side can be just as hard if not harder than the physical side. Got to take care of yourself if you want to do this type of work :)

A Bar Above thats so true and smack me in the face.. maybe i should change my ways

As many as you can, but concentrate on learning cocktail families and you can apply the formulas in many different ways. IE Sour = spirit + Sour + sweet. Whiskey sour is Whiskey + lemon + Simple syrup, Daiquiri = Rum + lime juice + Simple syrup, etc

Jeff Sherman try to pair those food specials with some cocktails that you can come up with.

I hope it's not too late, but I would make some samples for each day or like a random set for these drinks and then continue to introduce drinks to keep the menu fresh

AmberB Vlogs me too

It's a great job and can't recommend it enough
