A complete bartender should have many tools in his belt, like Batman. If a bat-a-rang gets the job done, than a smoke grenade is not the right tool. Flair is a tool, Mixology is a tool, telling a joke is a tool, speed is a tool, product knowledge is a tool… etc. etc. Knowing which tool is right for which situation or bar is how a bartender excels at his/her craft. Think “I’m Batman!” Next time your behind the bar and you will make eye contact with that guest and think hmmm, am I using the right tool?
