       Bottom line. When you become a Bartender/Cocktail server you take on 
the responsibility of looking out for people who cannot look out for 
themselves when they drink. The bar is going to loose it's license because it 
over served someone who commited manslaughter not because they served a minor.
       This is a good reminder for all of us "Pay Attention" That is what 
makes you a good bartender rather than just a drink pourer.
