But that doesn’t make sense. First in line gets the first bartender available, who takes the order, fulfils, and takes payment. Next in line please?
That's less efficient than having a stack of 3-4 orders you can work on, this is true in many jobs, and I assume true in bartending as that's the standard worldwide.
