How get a job as a Bartender

Saturday, May 10th, 2008

Sometimes it’s not what you know, it’s how you go about finding the answers. My favorite is just stumbling onto them, literally. I love stumbleupon, the more I experience from the community the more I learn. And they certainly keep you in check when they think you are outa bounds.

With that being said I stumbled across this little bit-o-information
How To Land A Bartending Job With No Experience

Thought it was somewhat inspirational and rather useful. The key point that I got out of it was the statement of be a busboy but keep putting your resume out their for bartending. It puts a new spin on all the negativity I hear about trying to become a bartender from the kitchen. So, when I move to my new city I’ll be trying that one out to see how affective it is on a drop in approach.

Be sure to let me know if you have success from this or fall flat on your nose ;)

New Uses for the Wii Remote

This technology is along the lines of Windows Surface which I’ve discussed in the past, but this technology is readily available and much cheaper. The software to run it is free to download so all you need is the hardware. A Wii remote, they cost about $40 (I just looked on Newegg.com $39.99 plus shipping, haven’t tried amazon or ebay yet) an infrared source as discussed in this video, bluetooth communication which most computers have these days, if not it’s cheap to add (their are usb bluetooth devices… plug and play running about $35 and up).

There is another video of interest at YouTube Here that discusses an Interactive Whiteboard using a projector or LCD monitor. I would recommend adding a protective surface to your monitor before going that route though, feel free to email me if you want to know more about how to go about that webmaster at gadgotchy.com.
