I dont think its Jersey Schools thats the problem its the people who say "you dont have to go to a bartending school your hot" Then you have what you explained as bad hot bartenders haha. Im just saying if you are an attractive girl or know someone then the less expensive school would be the way to go to get the basic idea about mixing drinks. No school can simulate a club atmosphere were you have people six deep asking for drinks and the music is loud and its dark as hell.
