To be a good bartender or a good customer, there are certain terminologies that you need to be familiar with. Landing a bartending job is sometimes tough, so you have to get prepared.
The key here is that regardless of how many drinks you know how to make, even if you mix up a horrible drink every time you bartend you can still bankroll some huge tips. Not only is it unnecessary but your lies will be discovered and your job will be at risk. Remember customers names and welcome them, using their names, the next time they visit.
Learn tricks of the trade. You gotta move quickly if you want to be a great bartender. Each mixing station should contain the base spirits which are Vodka, Tequila, Gin and Rum.
And remember, there are lots of schools out there, so look around. If you seem more like a friend then like an applicant you will get the job.
