Thanks for the reply. I reread my post, and I don't want to sound all full of
myself, because I'm totally not. I guess what I want to get across to those
hiring is the fact that even though I haven't yet bartended professionally, I
have a wide variety of experiences that have taught me how to make it in any
job -- discipline, organization, punctuality, reliability, zero attitude, and
above all, the ability to deal with people and get them to like me. I would
think that these attributes are very important, and that the nuts and bolts of
the job could be easily taught to someone who possesses them. Do
bar/restaurant owners/managers think this way? Or would they just rather have
someone with experience?
