This was very good! I am thinking of getting a second job bartending few times a month. I took a course 10 years ago so these extra tips update me and give me hope I can do it!

I was a door guy for 5 years. What a learning process my first month was. Cut them off, feed them, offer them water and call them a cab. That’s the standard formula. Last be nice to them and helpful I found helps a lot. Then it just goes sideways after that lol.

When I was bartending at a catering for weddings in Cincinnati, all the bartenders were serving these guests 10 or more drinks in one night. I remember getting a couple of these guests drunk enough to where they cause a scene and I remember in bartending school we were told loud and clear that we are NOT allowed to overserved anyone. They told us that if a guest is overserved, heavily intoxicated gets in their car and kill someone you are responsible for it, and they also said if you did overserved a guest by accident or they go out and drive you gotta cover your ass by calling a nonemergency number and telling them that this guy is heading to his car and the license plate is this and this and this so you can back your ass up later on.

Hey Dave, whatsupp! Thanks so much for your videos mate, I've been a bartender for many years but it was 10 years ago, since then I'm working as a video editor. Now I'm about to move to another country and work again as a bartender, on a foreigner land, on a language I'm still learning so I'm slight inseccure and your videos are helping me a great ton. With small solid tips. So I wish I can repay you a bit, I'm gonna give you a small solid tip to help with your videos. I assume you're cutting it using Adobe Premiere (if not, this tip can help you regardless what software you use). If you put the effect "Lumetri color", goes all the down to the Curves section, then scroll all the way down to "Hue vs Hue". Once there you'll see multicolored line. What you want to do is click once on the red, and once again in the gree, that will create 2 anchor points in your line. Then click on the yellow and drag it up a little bit, just a little. By just doing that you'll see the green reflections from the greenscreen behind you will disappear and you'll have good natural color. Just don't overdo or you'll turn brown or purple. I hope that tip is useful to you just like your tips are being useful to me. Cheers!

The very end of this video will stick with me, because I always hated the manager who didn't stick up for the staff. I just got a new job as the front of house manager at a restaurant, and do not have a lot of skills with the bar in particular (it's actually terrifying). Do you have any other (often overlooked) tips for management? Or any tips for someone new to restaurant management?

You’re right on, always have your staff’s back

Never give a drunk person a non-alcoholic beer or virgin variation of a drink to replace the thing they ordered. This just makes them even more pissed and can cause more problems.

Awesome content. Just got my master bartender certification and I always have trouble finding the right phrase. And for all the time I should have been shut off I wasn't and the one time I was I had slipped on a spilled drink and had only one drink apparently it didn't seem that way though and I left. I did try and explain but the bouncer wasn't trying to hear my side and at that point why argue just go somewhere else

In NH overserving is illegal with a $1,200 fine and if the customer gets harmed or harms others, a lawsuit can be brought against both the bartender and the establishment up to three years after the date of the event.

I bartend in Las Vegas. Not only does the Strip area have ZERO laws on walking around with open alcohol containers (unless it's glass - big no-no), we don't even have public intoxication laws. Also, drinkers are legally responsible for their own consumption; there is no going back to the bar later, pointing fingers at us because you and your buddies ordered 40 shots for 5 people over the course of the night then drove your car off the 2nd floor parking garage after we offered to call you a ride. That being said, We cut people off all the time. It's the responsible thing to do. Usually I will signal a manager, or sometimes they will signal me. We want people to have as much fun as they can while they are with us, but more importantly, we don't want to clean up puke!

I had a bartender cut us off out of retaliation because we had a big group and some people weren’t putting money in the tip jar each time. I was but I don’t think he saw each time. So he freaked out if he wasn’t doing good enough and then said we’re cut off after I told him I have been putting money in there.
