English term or phrase: soda jerk

Will someone help me with an equivalent in Brazilian Portuguese

His debut performance fell flat, though, and unable to book any shows at more prestigious venues, Lewis worked as a theater usher and soda jerk to make ends meet.

Thank you

The Soda Jerk was similar to a bartender, serving-up phosphates, rickeys, and fancy sundaes. The depression and the years that followed were hard times for Americans. Soda fountains were a place where hard working Americans could take a break and enjoy their favorite soda or ice cream. It was also a great focal point for family gatherings.

Diria assim, mas para pt-pt, reportando-me à actualidade.
"Empregado de bar" ou "barman" será também uma possibilidade, uma vez que o termo também foi associado a "bartender".
