Give me a break. Except for fine restaurants, most bartenders know little else than how to pop a top off and mix a hi-alcohol shot for drunk college kids.
And btw, I was a bartender many years ago. I earned more in 4 months of partying and carousing with the customers than my annual income for my first 5 years with a “real job”.
You might not be aware -- but there's lots of types of bars between fine restaurants & college bars. You may want to reconsider where you hang out. The bar/restaurant I worked at required a lot more including, as mentioned before, dealing with drunken a-holes.

In other words, you were a crappy employee?
Nobody believes that tending bar is the path to wealth and prosperity.
