I'm a newbie trying to get into bartending...I have a few questions?
1 For drinks that have the mixture in the name ie rum and coke , how many oz of alcohol and how many oz of the other drink do you normally put?2 What's a good amount of drinks to have memorized for an interview? I was thinking around 80ish3 I noticed that there are different recipes for the same drink like, there's 4 different recipes I've seen for a zombie for instance . Do I have to know ALL variations right now, or can I get by with just knowing one way and adjusting as I get experience?4 For someone with no bartending experience, where would I have the best chance of getting hired? I'm guessing there's pretty much no chance of getting hired at a nighclub or something without experience
I'm looking into bartending school in CA?

Does experience in bartending compensate at all for not going to bartending school?
I will be 18 soon and currently work as a host at a sports bar. However about a month after I turn 18 I will be moving to Orlando for school. I was hoping to train and bartend for a month where I currently work so I could use that experience to find a job as a bartender where I'll be living since they make so much and I'll have so many more expenses. I don't know if being trained and having a little experience will help me get a job as a bartender else where or if I'll be starting from square 1 since I haven't gone to bartending school. I just want to know if this is my best option or if I should just go with serving.

Bartending maternity leave?
I have been bartending at the same place for the last 5 yrs. I recently returned to work from maternity leave. This company is large so I know I'm covered ny fmla. I was given my job back but I did not get all of my shifts back. I have been working the same shifts for yrs and if I hadn't left I would still be working them. Is there anything I can do about this.
