One thing I can't stand is a bartender that thinks being busy gives them license not to be friendly. I expect bartenders to be short on time, and I'll be to the point, but being busy is part of the job. Actually busy can be fun. You suck it up, put on a smile, and kick ass.

"bartending" is one of the most transitory jobs you can have that actually requires training. You spend 4 weeks at "bar college" or whatever and get pissed off when you discover that it's a lot of work and nearly everyone orders the same six drinks.

The ones that get pissed off are the ones that are going to be doing something else very soon.
