Any bartenders around? Was thinking about getting into the industry. How do I start?

First you have to learn how to make a bunch of fancy drinks.
1. Be attractive (preferably female)
2. Work 2+ years in food industry
3. Don't pay for some bartender class
Are you a hot chick? In that case you don't need to know anything, and you'll make great tips.
What if I work in a gay bar?
kek I know the girl in that photo, her name is Stephanie Brito, super nice girl too. That's an old picture, she lives in New York now and I think is a yoga instructor.
Don't. It's a shit way to make a living.
>3. Don't pay for some bartender class
This for sure. I had a friend who was a bartender and he always said "If you can't bullshit your way into a bartending job, you're not cut out to work in the industry"
> buy a bartender’s guide
> memorize the drink recipes
> practice at home if you can
> go to bars and talk to the bartenders about tips and types of customers
> narrow your choices
> apply
I worked in the food industry through high school and college. Bartenders can make bank. If you’re a guy, the best places to bartend is a place where middle aged women go after work. Middle aged women were my bread and butter. They leave good tips and love to flirt. Plus, I got some head and pussy from time to time. Older women also are not as clingy. They are (most of the time) cook with it being just a fuck. Godspeed my friend.
It's almost impossible. It's a tight-knight circlejerk, and you need to be really attractive, unless you're related to and old-time bartender who runs a family business. The only way to get in as an outside is, like I said, be attractive, or be a female for all the boomers who think they have a chance at scoring the girl who's already fucking the manager.
Protip: Don't take classes. They hate that.
Second Protip: Dont bother asking for the female bartender's number. She's being fucked by the guy bartender.
