You're Never Too Old to Bartend!

If you believe that you are too old to enter the bartending profession, you are wrong! Bartending is a career for people of all ages and backgrounds. In today's job market, many bartenders have relayed their corporate horror stories to us. Job layoffs, downsizing, reduced benefits, longer hours, no appreciation by the company, reduced wages and a general dissatisfaction with their chosen career.

Many have told us that they just couldn't take it anymore! The kids are getting older and college tuition is coming up, or the kids are gone and it's time to do something that they would enjoy. Bartending is a great break from the grueling pace of the corporate world.

A good bartender can earn a substantial living that is better than a lot of corporate jobs that require more expensive and longer schooling. It is also a great second income to help pay bills and can be a security blanket to fall back on when it's needed.

A professional bartender can usually find work within a week of looking and can start making tips right away. There is no starting at the bottom and working your way up in bartending.

An experienced bartender can switch jobs easily if they want a change of environment or different pace. Switching jobs is the norm for our industry and is not frowned upon so long as the bartender quits with a notice for a good reason.
