Well, I've got a job interview today at Red Lobster for a bartender. I'm pretty stressed about it because I applied to a lot of other places and they were the only reply I got. I'm landscaping now but I need more hours and winter is coming up so I'll be out of work soon. Not to mention I really want this job because it will be one I really enjoy. I even bought a bartender's handbook and have been doing a lot of research online to get me ready.

So any inspiring words, tips, links to some songs to get me pumped up, and of course a good helping of mojo will be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys!

-Jake :P

Don't be cocky
But don't be shy
Be confident, have a good attitude, tell them whatever it is.
You're ready to learn
Best of luck

I tend bar. Here are some fun facts. The customer is almost always wrong. We serve in measures, want a double pay for a double you cheap bastards. If they throw their money on the bar or click at you or tell you you're next then they are back of the line. Drunk people are idiots.

Here in the uk we have set measures of drink we are allowed to serve in. For example spirits are served either 25ml or 50ml. It's illegal to serve other than that and you can get hit by the guys at weights and measures hard.

Thanks a lot guys! (yoda, the song was very inspiring :lol: . I already decided if I ever own a bar I'll have the George Thorogood Special, where you get a bourbon, a scotch, and a beer, and if you drink it all in 30 seconds you get a discount. :D )

I got through the interview, and I'm pretty confident about it. Should know by the end of the week. Again, thanks for the wishes and advice.

-Jake :P
