August 2011, Culinary school paid off! I got a liquor license though I knew nothing about mixology. And I got a food permit. Before I could start, I had to show all Culinary school licenses. I took credited classes on alcohol and driving alcohol and behavior: And the science of alcohol and servers responsibilities.
And that in Culinary school, I had passed all the tests for Food Safety Permits and had an Alcohol Server Certificate. All I had to do for the interview was lift a 20-pound food tray with my right hand. Rest it on my shoulder and then walk carefuly over to the large table set up in alcohol, driving alcohol and behavior. The science of alcohol and servers responsibilities.
I needed work so severely that I was at the point of no return. I worried about Financial Aid. It seemed clear that there would not be enough money for the Fall Quarter school. Top Seek was over. No more Grandpa and the two teens. All I had was this offer, in so many ways. Not so much financially, not even close. It was $12.OO an hour and there was no work guarantee.
You had to send in a weekly availability report. First to call in, got to pick up the job. You know what? It was $3.00 more if I got to do CHEF DUTIES!! At my new part-time as a Banquet Server I must serve the Guest the Alcohol. No self service. I must uncap/open all product that is handed to a guest.
I am a State Bartender. I holed the discretion and the right to ask for ID and should it become necessary, cut off. I knew nothing about mixology, but all I had to do was just pop the lid and pour. ”Stay with the product. Take care of your restroom needs before or after shift.” The lady who just hired me said. ”Alcohol must be returned at the end of the event. And the inventory of your order must be taken.”
