Alcohol Server · Manager Responsibilities

A manager's review of nightly service should include checking that:

Correct answer

Servers checked IDs, paced service, and handled any intoxicated patrons appropriately

  1. A Only the music volume
  2. B Nothing in particular
  3. C Servers checked IDs, paced service, and handled any intoxicated patrons appropriately
  4. D Only the cash totals

Why this is the answer

A manager's review of nightly service should go beyond cash totals to include whether servers checked IDs properly, paced alcohol service, recognized and appropriately handled any intoxicated patrons, and followed house policies — addressing any incidents that arose. This kind of operational review keeps responsible service front of mind and catches issues early. It also signals to staff that compliance is monitored and valued, not just sales. Building responsible-service checkpoints into routine management — rather than focusing only on revenue — supports a consistently compliant and safe operation.
