Is bartending a good way to overcome shyness?

actually i'd like to ask actual bartenders this question. i'm thinking of going to bartending school mainly to learn how to be more social. can this be a big help?Is bartending a good way to overcome shyness?
bartending is a job, shyness is a mental state. You have to figure out, what it is that makes you feel that way, and deal with it. Trying to force yourself into something you may not be ready for could lead to complete failure, and distrust for life.

If you are afraid of what people think about you, forget it, they have so many hang ups about their selves, they find it easier to throw it at someone they don't know.

If your ashamed of what you look like, who the hell cares? Go outside, sit on th stoop, and watch people who walk by, take a look at them, a good look, and see if you see anyone who looks perfect. The answer will always be no, we all have our flaws.

If your afraid of being told no, guess what your not alone, nearly 98% of people are afraid of that word, but you know what? It has never killed anyone! It may hurt from a minute, but you get over it, and move on.

Get to work on finding out what is making you shy, and conquer it yourself.

Yes it can help you because it forces you to engage with different people all the time, but having said that if your a shy person then that may make things worse cos you have to be friendly and fun, not just put your head down and pour people their drinks, know what I mean.
