Dilemma: I need experience to work as a bartender anywhere but no one will hire me unless i have experience, yet i'm probably better then half the other bartenders downtown.

had an interview at tonic club lounge... and the douche wouldn't even give me a shot.. i told him i'd go toe-to-toe with any of his bartenders for free and he didn't accept my challenge...
man finding a bar-tending job is hardddddd
