I start a job as a bartender in 48 hours. What are the 10 to 15 most popular classic cocktails should I know how to make? (Don't need to know shits, it's a trendy upscale casual place where 90% of orders will be from craft cocktail list)... Oh I've never bartended before but I'm a sober alcoholic that until a few months ago was drinking a handle of vodka a day since 2017

Fuck me, I just wanted to be a server because that's my favorite thing to do but it's the only place hiring right now and I live in a tent lol

Negroni

Do you post this thread every 2 months or is a different retard with the same sense of retard humor

>>21092254
I've never posted this before and am completely serious
>>
>>21092258
you deserve to live in a tent
>>
>>21092267
That's not very frenly
>>
I despise homeless but I respect you are at least attempting to do something.

Look up what you asked on youtube. There will definitely be introductory bartender videos on there. Practice! As much as you can in the next two days. If you don't have any booze, make a bunch of labeled containers with water and pretend. Study the jargon. Good luck.

>I despise homeless but I respect you are at least attempting to do something.
You only despise the homeless people you know are homeless. You'd be surprised how many of us used to be extremely successful in our professional careers but no longer wished to entertain society and chose to be homeless
>>
>>21092227
My list of cocktails that I'd expect a bartender to know would be:
>old fashioned
>Manhattan (regular and perfect)
>negroni
>gin and tonic
>mojito
>mai tai
>margarita
>sidecar
>martini (gin and vodka)
>cosmopolitan
Those should be your basics, I'd think. Besides those, know mules, bloody Marys, and espresso martinis (they're popular, right now). Also, knowing a few mixed shots might he nice, depending on what the clientele is like.
Good luck, anon. I always respect people who are trying to better themselves.

lol negro nigger

>>21092616
That's why I'm not too worried. Owner said almost all drinks are in house from the craft cocktail menu. Other than that I assume it will be just your major classic cocktails...I didn't look when I left today after the offer, I don't think we even have soda. We don't do shots. Anything else would be just neat pours
>>
>>21092644
I know nothing about bartending but good luck!
>>
>>21092280
You deserve to be jumped in a back alley as you lock up and a shiv driven into your kidney as they kick the shit out of you. Never post here again worthless cunt.
>>
>I'm a recovering alcoholic
>so I'm going to take a job where I am surrounded by alcohol all day
>it's the only job available anywhere in the world I swear!

You are transparent.
>>
>>21092644
yeah and nowadays almost all places have the drink dispenser gun thing that you press button and G&T comes out.
unless you're in a cocktail bar or swanky craft pub you're basically just a "press button, give drink" minimum wage worker

>>21092314
>you only hate the homeless that are a public nuisance
you sir are a visionary and a scholar

>>21093078
Restaurants are the only thing I've ever done that is fun. I'll never go back to working in a lab or an office again. Would do manual labor but I still like to pick up chicks
>>
>>21093151
You want to drink you degenerate fuck. Just admit it. Low life fucking scum.
>>
>>21093241
Look at this little bitch. Stop being such a weak little cunt

>I start a job as a bartender in 48 hours
>it's the only place hiring right now
I don't believe that you couldn't find anything else. And why even bring any of this up if you just want to know what the most popular cocktails are? Hell, it sounds like you aren't going to be doing much bartending at this job anyway. All of this is just you creating excuses for yourself for when you fall off the wagon later.
>>21093151
>gets called out on it
>totally deflects anything having to do with alcohol
you're fooling nobody
>>
>>21093247
>degenerate alcoholic getting aggressive once he's called out
You'll be back in the bottle before the end of your first shift.
>>
>>21094158
I'm not op and I'm not an ex drunkard. I just think you're girlish wannabe cuckold
>>
>>21094170
Explain your reasoning why I am a girlish cuckold for telling the transparent degenerate alcoholic that he's getting a job surrounded by alcohol and other alcoholics as a tissue thin excuse to start drinking agai .
>>
>>21094173
I tend not to consort with the mentally ill. Try and get your free therapy somewhere else, I'm not helping you with your 'catharsis'. You desperate, acerbic little goblin
>>
>>21094183
OK alky, make sure you dont drive to work you fucking piece of shit degenerate.
>>
>>21094170
well I am op and I am an ex drunkard and you are homosex
>>
>>21094173
>as a tissue thin excuse to start drinking agai .
Nigger, I'm a fucking crippling alcoholic, I don't need an excuse to drink
>>
>>21093075
Ass blasted bartender who thinks he's special detected. Serve the drink and stfu wagie, i don't care if you smile and dance.
>>
>>21092644
>We don't do shots
most places dont do shots these days.
in some places local/state governments banned it entirely, in others bars dont want to be liable for someone doing 15 shots in 10 minutes and fucking dying.
>>
>sober alcoholic
>bartending
No wonder you're living in a tent.
Some people claim that people get homeless due bad luck, but really it's bad life choices - every single time.
