Summary
Banquet bartending is not just preparing and serving drinks. I believe that the bartender is the FRONT person in the event.
There is a one on one interaction with our guests, being CHEERFUL helps create the atmosphere.
It is the bartender's responsibility to observe and monitor our guest's alcohol consumption, therefore preventing over serving, even if they're not driving.
Checking IDs is CRUCIAL.
Also keeping an eye on WHERE the drinks are going.
Underage drinking is not permitted.
Remove pronoun absolutely love banquet bartending.
