As a Bartender, it's your job to keep any alcohol inclined crew happy. That means serving drinks to anyone who comes by the Bar. Also, playing pieces on the Piano isn't a bad idea either. You also have the sobriety gene, making you completely immune to the effects of alcohol, as well as the ability to leap tables faster than most!
Required Knowledge
None is required besides knowing how to follow SOP, this is a good job for learning basics of mixing and some others. It can be very helpful however to know how to handle yourself in a fight, as the bar can be a violent place. Advanced Mixology separates the good from the great bartenders.
Equipment

- Soda Fountain: Dispenses most non-alcoholic drinks, you can plop in glasses, flasks, shakers and so on in it, use with the booze dispenser for mixing drinks fast.
- Booze Dispenser: Dispenses the basic alcoholic drinks, works the same like the Soda Fountain.

Serving Drinks
Main Article: Guide to Drinks.
You have a whole bunch of spirits in your handy Booze-o-mat vending machine, with which to mix all manner of drinks. Serve up what the crew wants, or just what you feel like mixing.
Bar Defence
While a shotgun may be easy to defend with, dealing with bullets might get annoying. Luckily, in addition to the shotgun, bartenders learn Sleight of Hand!
While located in the bar or kitchen, the Bartender automatically reloads the shotgun with shells place inside their bandolier. No need to waste time on pesky reloads!
Alcohol Poisoning 
A Traitor Bartender has it hard. You start with less access than everyone except the Librarian. Your bar suit stands out fantastically and if you're not in the bar when someone inevitably shows up, expect them to call attention to your absence. If you want to get anything at all done, empty the beer locker onto the bar and hope that everyone gets too drunk to care.
You do, however, have a potentially lethal weapon nearby. Rubber shot rounds you start with are strong at incapacitating targets. If you want something more lethal, having a buddy in research division print you more advanced shells may come in handy. Bottles also work great as melee weapons, but emptied and filled with something nasty to be broken over someone's head or force-fed to them works just as well.
The Maintenance tunnel east of the bar have a fire suit. Use of an emag and your shotgun may help you for your objectives. It's best to stay around the bar as much as you can, as you may look suspicious anywhere else.
