| How old would one need to be to bartend in the US, or more specifically, Washington state? Ironically, I don't drink anymore, but it seems like it pays well. |

In NYC I know alot of people who got licenses and they were all 18. But then again I know alot of people who do this without a license because that's just the way some works here. My good friend worked as one in this bar and was making about 200 a night on a good night. I had his study book and it was a little tough. There's a lot of you need to know besides mixing coctails and all. Also here you gotta pay for the license. Sorry it's not much info about your state but i thought id chip in my 2 cents hehe. |

classes are free here, it's the license you gotta pay for. and believe me bartenders make it back in matter of days/good nights. |

| Don't even BOTHER trying to bartend in Washington State, man. I know SO many people who have bartending licenses... and NOBODY is hiring. It's a flooded market, here. (Olympia, Tacoma, and Seattle are packed with people who could bartend if only there were a need for the skill.) |
