Trends


The things that could make a impact on the Bartending career is:
Technology: In many years there might be new technology that can replace bartenders, having all the bottles of drinks hooked up and you just make your own drink while you sit at the bar, and you might have a device that knows when you have drank too much (a limit), which will cut you off.
Demographics: Because of the "baby boomers" there will be more older people at the bar, but it doesn’t matter because all ages go to the bar. There might be a difference of drinks, such as more types of drinks that older people drink more often. There also might be a slight change of music to what older people would like because they might be the majority.
Globalization: I think that globalization will cause the drinks to be more expensive because many people want drinks from all over the world, to try a variety of drinks. There will be more types of drinks because a lot of people are inventing them around the world.
Information Age: It is faster to get drinks from other countries with the advanced transportation. Also if a new drink appears it is sure to be on the internet so you can learn how to make it as soon as it is posted.
Environment: To adopt "green" processes bars might not use as much special lighting, and try to use energy efficient lighting. They also might save every beer bottle and bring them to beer stores so that they can be reused.
