I might be missing the joke, but Bartender is actually a real program for managing barcode readers!

All of those qualifications require that you can handle a cascade of requests and manage tables

Are they based out of the PNW? Now that I think about it, I may actually have interviewed with them at one point.

ETA: Yeah, pretty sure it was them, they're PT and have a 425 DID for sales, and the company name is wholly unrelated to the product. Had forgotten about them entirely, and would have had the same reaction as OP to getting that email now.

And it probably is the sw product the email was referencing, since Bartender is capitalized.
