bartenders and visine

Something you may not know is that a bartending job may be one of the best ways to recession proof your income. Bartenders who know their job and are good at what they do can earn a lot of money tending bar.

Many times, when people think about a bartender, their first thought is either someone like on Cheers, friendly, fun and someone that loves to chit chat with customers, or they might think of a really, hot chick or guy bartender, what a nice thought that is. Some lawsuits have been filed and courts have found bar tenders guilty for continuing to serve alcohol to those that were obviously very drunk, so you have to always be aware. Having knowledge about different drinks and being able to create unique drinks according to the various customer's taste and preferences will help increase business.

With that in mind, just remember that it is your job, you love what you do and you have prepared yourself properly for dealing with these types of irritating people. Announcements from the DJ are always a good idea to get people to you bar. Almost all mixed drinks require juice, such as screwdrivers, which require both vodka and orange juice.

Mixed drinks are very popular, making it essential for the bartender to be a good mixologist and have the right materials on hand at all times. As a matter of fact, bartending courses are now offered online.
