Thinking about obtaining a liscense to become a bartender. Is it worthwhile?

You can only use it for this one job that is just borderline a step above being a waiter and it is a job that involves cleaning and mopping.
I think instead you should spend the time on a skill that isn't as dead end as this.
Eventually all these skills you gain should stack up as you are on a career track so that you are able to tell people that you know the hands on and theoretical of whatever.
But bartending? Bartending is just where that skill ends, unless you plan on owning a restaurant someday.

@goneNow6565 Back in the day when I knew them it was, when the average 3 bed 2 bath home only cost $95,000, or a 2 bed 1 bath townhouse apartment was only $385 a month.

Yes. Yes it is.
Become a great bartender and you will wish you had done it earlier in life.

@beermeplease That sounds pretty great money wise

@violentred yes it is. but if i could give you a piece of advice from all the conversations we had about his job, that if you do decide to become one start out at a smaller, less busy place to get some experience. if you started out at a fast paced place you'd be lost and wouldn't want to do it anymore...good luck and cheers

@beermeplease Makes sense I'd probably drown and be miserable. I used to wait tables at a bar so I have some knowledge.

Peeps can make good money doing that.

@Iwillwait That's what I hear and I can be inventive.

@SW-User I bet you have great stories to tell about those days. I'm tough but I'm small they'd never let me bounce
