What Kind of Bartender Was I?

I stumbled on to this neat article about different types of bartenders. So of course since I bartended my way through college, I was curious as to what category of bartender I fell under.

According to this article I am a "Bar God". No joke, I read it and I totally identified with the profile. I would always judge people by what they ordered. My wife was one of the few people that impressed me by what she ordered on our first date. I'll never forget it, she ordered a Cointreau Martini with an orange twist. As soon as she ordered that I knew she was a keeper.
