  Barback

  This is an extremely high-volume environment. Duties entail maintaining the cleanliness and operations of the 20-seat bar top. Prepping and stocking mixers, garnishes, and alcohols. Handling dishes, pouring beer, shots, flights, and wine. Greeting guests, taking orders, bringing chips and salsa, etc. While this is not a full bartending position, this location does not direct hire bartenders. It has provided me a more rounded experience since I hadn’t bar-backed before. I have begun training as a bartender after only a couple months due to my competence and exemplary performance here.
