I have this citrus juicer:

It is awesome, I can juice a ton of citrus very quickly. My wife has no problem operating it. It is heavy and large, which I count as a good thing. As a bonus it does a pretty good job of juicing Pomegranates as well.
Yes, good juicers are so worth it. A friend has this one in his bar at home (he takes his cocktails seriously).
A few questions:
Where are you buying limes? If there's a Mexican grocery in you area, try there. In my town, limes are WAY cheaper at the Mexican grocery than they are at the Kroger.
What are you juicing them with? A hand juicer will do all right but a juice press like this one will get you more juice per lime and faster processing for batches of them.
As for whether bartenders juice limes all day, the answer is no--we do a whole bunch all at once at the very beginning of the shift. I do about four pounds at my bar on weekend days.
It is absolutely worth having fresh citrus juice to make drinks. If you go to bottled stuff the quality dropoff is pretty steep.
