Should I go to bartending school?

I am a clean-cut male who is considering going to school to be a bartender.



But I am worried that I won"t be able to find a job when I finish.



Can I make decent money?



150 a night would be enough for me.



I am in Los Angeles but would move if I found a job.Should I go to bartending school?
The other guy is right, I went to bartender school years ago and it didn't help at all. I was able to do some bartending at private parties, but not at regular bars.



Just get a book of cocktail recipes and practice with that, because that's about all you do in bartender school anyways.Should I go to bartending school?
sure, if that's what you want to do. one thing is certain, despite the economy, people are going to drink, and will spend money to do so.
the only real way is to become a bar-back and work your way up... Bartending school is a ripoff...Should I go to bartending school?
Do you enjoy standing on your feet for hours? Having smoke blown in your face all night? Dealing with drunks? Being in a dark and loud room for hours?



Then, by all means, be a bartender!
if ur going to a school, whatever u decide, make sure its a place you'll get some decent buisness. plus, dont keep expectations high, keep ur options open for negotiation.Should I go to bartending school?
If it's what you want to do, go for it.
If I were you I wouldn't, but I'm not you,so if you want to be a bartender then by all means be a bartender.
