Moving on now - nightclubs
Started my second week of work with an agency that provides door staff/crowd controllers/bouncers (depending on where you are in the world, they are called different things) to nightclubs and bars here. I've negotiated a very good pay rate with them and have got some decent venues, on the whole.
Most of it involves standing in fixed positions, monitoring the crowd and signalling up fights or intoxicated people, then dealing with them. There's the odd push or shove between people here and there, but nothing amounting to the brawls; bottlings and general mayhem of the nightclub attached to the casino in which I used to work.
One of the upmarket bars loved me on my first night, and requested that I be placed there each weekend, which suits me fine.
Worked a cruisy venue last night, which, towards the end, was the host of an amusing little scene. It is a large venue, with some areas being closed off since it wouldn't be economical to put staff there and run the area. One of the guys was 'roving' around when he happened to stick his head through into one of the closed areas to make sure nobody was there. What he saw tickled him, and he called a few of us over to have a look. In a sofa in a dark corner were two shilloutes, one of whom was giving the other a headjob. After a few seconds of laughing at this classy display of affection between two close and deeply intimate people, we switched on the lights adn kicked them out. The walk of shame for the couple was accompanied by a guard of honour of door staff - maybe now they'll acquire a bit of decorum and find a toilet cubicle instead. Believe me, it's a step up for these people!
