Also remember, you are mostly in control of your reputation. I'm not sure if
beans was saying to quit without notice or not, so I will not make any
assumptions.
As for quiting, you certainly are in control of that. You can choose to stick
it out or to keep at it or to give notice and be looking. However, your boss
is also able to fire you for giving notice. Still, I am an avid believer in
not buring a bridge with an employer. Even if the boss is a jerk and the money
blows. Keep in mind that they gave you (a self admitted newbie to bartending)
a chance and an "opportunity" to make money and gain experience. You should at
least give them a thank you BUT no thank you and give them time to find
someone else.
You never know when you might run into an old manager/owner/bar manager again
and they WILL remember you.
Besides, if the money stinks they will know it and not expect to keep good
help long.
At our school we have a system where, when a new bartender decides to move on,
he/she simply calls us and we send a new bartender that agrees to work a shift
or two for free. The current bartender trains him/her and then goes on their
way. The bar managers have been thrilled with this, as their turnover is
handled for them and they don't have to waste time and money placing ads and
interviewing.
Just some thoughts.
