no longer a bouncer

**anaBROLIC** · 08-14-2008, 12:58 AM

Been working security at a Bar for about 5 years now. just for some extra spending money. I have had 2 different owners since i have been working there. well it looks like the whole staffed just got screwed. Current owner tells us tonight he had sold and that they were shutting the place down tomorrow for 2 weeks. The new owner is going to get a list of names and numbers for employees if he wants to keep anyone. I am not counting on getting a call. I figured that if the new owner plans on keeping staff he would have made a point to come meet us before they shut it down.

Kinda sucks, But i dont even like working in the bar scene. The only thing that was nice was 2 or 3 days a week with the hours of 10- 2am no interference with day job. It will be hard finding another PT job with similar hours. kinda bummed.

well at least figure out if u can get a good reference. maybe u can get a job somewhere else? otherwise talk to the owner and convince him u will be a good asset for him..

You sound bitter. I'd be willing to bet you've got tossed around and embarrassed by a bouncer on more than one occasion. I've never heard anyone ever laugh at a bouncer.
(accept maybe the envious club goer, who has a quarter of muscle size, gets all done up to got out with his boys, spends all his money on buying girls drinks, and goes home alone to whack off while the bouncer goes home with one of the girls he wanted.)

Other than bartenders, no one gets laid more than a bouncer. I have a day job that I make more than a comfortable living with, but I still bounce because its honestly the easiest job to get laid. Think about it, you dont dress up, you drink for free, your in the club for free, they pay you to be there. Girls approach you because you look like you are there to work, not to pick them up. Who's really laughing at who?

I have no idea what this says

my day jobs pays all my bills but working security is very easy money and is nice to have a spending or saving money.

i feel bad for the employees like 1 of the managers and a bartender that have been there as long as i have. its there only job and they basically were told without warning also.

lol I feel dumber after trying to attempt to read that.

**Jfew44** · 08-14-2008, 11:48 AM

Ignoring The Who guy, im sure you'll be able to find another bouncing job. Bars look at experience and if you have 5 years of it, Im sure you'll be able to do the same elsewhere. You may not get paid as much, which sucks, but hopefully you find something else.

**Lift_Heavy_NY** · 08-14-2008, 02:24 PM

Shitty time to lose income too.

**tadpoleboyy** · 08-14-2008, 05:49 PM

when i was a bouncer, i never got free drinks, couldnt drink on the job, the hours were shitty, the pay was crap, we were expected to work more than 8 hours without overtime or a lunch, not allowed to eat on the job, and got just as much, if not more, disrespect as respect.

Damn. Where did you bounce during the day and for 8 hours? We get $120 a night (Cash, off the books), work 10-1 weekdays or 10-2 weekends. They let us drink free as long as we arent falling down by the end of the night. And if we get there 20 min before our shit starts we get free dinner.

that does suck.. they didnt want us drinking either while working but that didnt bother me. im not big into drinking.

The thing that sucks is that i dont know if i will try to work at another bar. All the other bars are run by really "clicky" "trendy" whatever you want to call them. i cant stand them or all the 21yr old promoters who swear they are local celebrities. I am not a fake person and i do not pretend to like any of them when they are around.

I guess there is positive news. One of the managers who i know pretty well has a meeting setup with the new owner tomorrow. I can count on him getting me back there. that is if they come to an agreement with each other first.

**warchild** · 08-14-2008, 09:07 PM

ban that idiot, the who

**tadpoleboyy** · 08-14-2008, 09:17 PM

we got standard minimum wage with no tips, and no share of the barbacks bartenders tips. The bar i worked at was fvcking chock full of clique-y wannabe preppy idiots who used mommy and daddy's money to drink. Lots of wannabes, and lots of "people who know people" The manager was a penny pinching over theatrical anal prick, and most of the dudes who worked there were way too serious about their job for 6.50/hour. And bouncers were basically at the bottom of the food chain, being the most expendable and having the highest turnover rate. It was in a college town, as i am a student.

I agree. I got between $100-$120 a night cash. Then i would make a bunch of tips if i was working vip or the door. We werent supposed to drink either. I think they all say that. But we all did and nobody cared. In my partying days. I had to get carried out and went to sleep in my truck while i was supposed to be working.

working security fits into my schedule perfectly, im a full time student so working 2-3 days a week at night works out great for me.

enough with the insults or your not going to be here much longer

**Big** · 08-15-2008, 06:06 PM

Guys, "THE WHO" is probably just some previously banned member/attention whore who is here just to disrupt the board, just ignore him, either he will be banned or his mommy will make him shut off the pc and go to bed, either way he won't be here much longer.

I this 'wigger" talk for "I am a fvcktard" ?

**one8nine** · 08-15-2008, 07:16 PM

i got punched by a bouncer once it sucked

**stpete** · 08-15-2008, 07:27 PM

Feel for you man. I was a bouncer on the weekends at a local "show bar", and it was the easiest money i ever made. Plus the scenery couldn't be beat. There's high turnover in those joints so maybe you have a fighting chance. Good luck.
