-- Posted by Helios at 10:27 pm on Jan. 5, 2009 Does anyone know how much a bartender makes right out of taking a class? I tried to find some sites but they either didnt work or were way outdated. -- Posted by CuntFace at 10:28 pm on Jan. 5, 2009 i dont know but i know its pretty damn good -- Posted by neverjeeps at 10:28 pm on Jan. 5, 2009 depends on where you get a job it depends on the tips you make too -- Posted by studmuffn at 10:28 pm on Jan. 5, 2009 under 10$ an hour most money comes from tips -- Posted by Stand Up at 10:29 pm on Jan. 5, 2009 Depends on the place; tips is where it's at to be honest, but again depends where you work. Some can work minimum wage plus tips which ends up being a lot. -- Posted by lovesmusic89 at 10:29 pm on Jan. 5, 2009 Depends on how good you are and where you are... -- Posted by sharongmc at 10:41 pm on Jan. 5, 2009 they earn a lot bartenders. . . they're really cool too -- Posted by JennyColada at 10:12 pm on Jan. 8, 2009 Most of the decent places won't hire without experience, and typically having certification or taking a class doesn't count as experience. So I would assume that you'd probably get a slower, or resturant-style job, in which case you'd probably earn minimum wage plus tips (which probably won't run you more than $100/night).
