I decided to take the class because I don't really drink, know very little about mixed drinks, and would have looked like a complete fool at the first place I got hired.
My plan to get a job is dress up really nice, wear a short skirt and a low cut shirt and talk to/hand out resumes to every bar I can find (that gets good business). I'm also planning to put a pic of myself on my resume. Perhaps this would work for you without the school? Otherwise, cocktail watressing is a great option.
"When I try to apply at strip clubs, they try and convince me to dance instead." Quote When I went in to strip clubs to apply for a cocktail job, I made it very clear to them right away that I had been a dancer and was at their club because I was burnt out and needed a change. Maybe if you make this clear, they won't pressure you as much? Or maybe they have too many cocktails and they aren't making $ either & that's why they want you to dance.
Good Luck!
