Full Fledged Bartender

I have been bartending since 2009, although I started out with friends and only during our gimmick outings, it became for me a passion and a hobby. Last June 7, 2013, I finally bartended a company party in honor of the wife of the owner of the company.

What really excited me to the June 7 event is that it was for me a first in so far as bartending to a group of professionals is concerned. Indeed, I was mixing drinks for 100 employees, including the officers of the company. Gaining such experience boosted my confidence and organizational skills as well as my creativity and decision making skills. I never thought bartending actually is more than just having fun, it's a way of life, a discipline to be mastered and a skill to be nurtured. Towards the end of the party, the Executive Secretary, who is a good friend of mine, gave me and my assigned assistant a cake-let, a fitting tribute to my first foray into the art and science that is bartending - my calling indeed.
