Default Barman advice?
To be a competent Batman you have to have a cool Batmobile of course and sexy black clothes.

Go out and buy a bartender's manual, and study it a bit. Memorize the most popular drinks, then try your best when the time comes. If you screw up so bad that you get fired, laugh it off. You'll have a funny story to tell your friends.

Also say you're adept at spotting people who are so pickled they need to be cut off, because that's often a liability for bars. Are you a "people person"? Bartenders double as impromptu therapists.

There was one I had that was fabulous.. but was made by an aquitance/neighbor, and I don't think is a standard drink.

She called it a Marbled Coconut.

It had something like:
2 shots of espresso
kahlua
vodka
coconut rum
bit of cream

I might be forggeting something.. or have included something wrongly. It looked great and tasted amazing.

Even when it's busy, there's no excuse for pouring a bad pint. Simply pour the 3/4, serve another customer, then go back and pour the top 1/4. That way it gets time to settle without causing a huge queue. If someone orders a Guinness, they should expect to wait around 2 minutes for it to be poured correctly. If they don't know that, inform them - most people are quite happy to be told "the proper way to serve Guinness is like this..."

In an Irish pub, you really shouldn't be mixing cocktails, so asking someone to let you know what it is if they order something weird is perfectly acceptable. General rule: if it's on the menu, you need to know how to make it. If it's not, it's ok to ask.

Working in a pubis easy. Working in a cocktail bar is hard work. The busier the bar is, the harder the work will be.

Working in a bar that is right next to where you live is NOT a good idea. Believe me, I know...

I don't think you'll become a raging alcoholic.
After standing there, night after night, watching how stupid people become, it should serve to re-enforce moderation for yourself.

A girl friend (not girlfriend) at work I know (who i also want to ****) has guys hanging around her house all the time. Because all the customers know where she lives. She doesn't like that. I know where she lives too, but I have no reason to hang around.
