Industry profile: Alicia Rogers, bar manager at Jeremiah's Tavern

Alicia Rogers works as bar manager at Jeremiah’s Tavern in the Rochester, NY area.

She’s got plenty of experience relating to cocktail menu-making, staff building, and all the things a successful bar manager needs to ace, and we'll feature tips about all those in other blog posts.

But in this post we thought it'd be fun to relay Alicia's service industry history—how she got started, why she got started, how she learned different aspects in the industry, and so on.

It's fun to hear stuff like this, since so many of us can relate. For example:

She got into the industry at 16 because she needed a job in order to buy a car. It worked. She was pushing her 1993 Grand Am around town soon thereafter.
She started out at the host stand, and has since worked every single FOH job there is.
At 19, two years before she could [legally] drink, she learned to bartend from her sister. They worked at the same place, so whenever there was a slow time she'd get to learning.
