Hi Donna, I liked this poem. Sounds like a great experience for you. I had some good days bartending too at a young age. Brought back some of the good memories, although I did drink then and I perhaps would have had more good memories than bad if I wasn't drinking so much back then. Anyway, good to hear a positive perspective of bartending because I am sure there are many negative perspectives of it, too. Good poem. Sincerely, Connie Webb

Donna, I enjoyed all of this poem but the line I loved was: 'It's not bad being a bartender, when you don't drink' Blessings, Bill Grace
