To be a manger:
You need to know liquor costs and all the numbers involved.
You need to know  the breakdown cost of every drink.
You need to know monthly monthly P&L's
You need to know monthly labor flashes.
You need to know monthly forecasts.
You need to know your monthly expenses.
You need to know your GSS scores.
You need to have files on every employee.
You need to have employee policies in place.
You need to have bartender check lists in place.
You need to have bartender sales records in place.
You need to have weekly and monthly duties in place.
You need to have incentive programs in place.
You need to have all employees certifications for your state in place.
You need to have all licenses per state/city in place.
You need to have all expense counts in place.

There's so much more...plus you make 1/4 what a bartender makes and work twice 
as many hours.
