Anyone every Bounce?

[gixxerboy1]

its not about being scary/tough/hard...its about the ability to talk to people, reason with them and calm a situation without the use of violence...the physical aspect of the job should be the last resort. I did it for 4 years, i enjoyed it but you soon get fed up of the ass holes.

Agree with you post.

I did it for years at some major clubs in philly. I loved it. Depending if you work the door or vip you can make alot of extra $$$. I never worked for $12 an hour

BTW i'm only 5'6.

Ya i was bouncing in a college town that why it sucked so bad i guess...and that why we didn't make shit i guess...there was no resolving the situation with words there. it was either a fight or everyone got along lol...alcohol......

Not that I would be in it for the money, but guys I know that bounced always had and angle for making hundreds of $ a night.

I've bounced for over 10 years. No you don't have to be the biggest guy or trained in fighting. Like the guys above said, it's better to be able to talk to people and defuse the situation before it gets physical. I would rather work with a small guy who knows a lot of the patrons any day of the week over a big meathead who just wants to pound people.

And the money can be very good if you know what ur doing. I have worked in over 30 bars and nightclubs over the years and never took a job that was on the books. Just cash.

It's a great job to have on the side for extra cash. Always paid for my gas, groceries, supplements and spending money for the week.

completely agree with this.

Bouncing was good extra cash. It rarely got physical when I bounced. When it did, the guy was usually too drunk to know what he was doing.

also, it's a great way to meet drunk chicks.
