You’re not just going to be able to be a bar tender off the bat, so just understand that accordingly. You’ll most likely start as a server, move up to bar back, then move up to a daytime bartender/weeknights, and it’ll take a long time to work your way up to the good shifts. But be realistic about it and learn the recipes from the specific bar your plan on working at

thank you!! i’ve been watching the amount of barback positions are opening up around me while also studying little things like cutting fruit, drinks, names, common sayings, etc. i will definitely keep in mind i may need to be a waitress first!
