Find a bartending school in your area (most towns have a program) search yahoo for bar tending schools in your home town.... They are quick, cheap programs. Than get a job as a "bar back" or busboy and work your way up... I know a lot of people who wait tables at bar/ restaurants, then move up to bar tender.... use your great personality and when someone calls off work volunteer to bartend.... Make your self indispensable, that's how people move up. Good Luck!
That's gonna be a long, hard road. Try to get a degree in something... how about hotel & restaurant management? Just tend bar thru college for the experience.
