question for bouncers.......

[MBaraso]

I've prolly run into you before...which bar/club were you at?

Scandals (shit hole), and Brass Balls on the boardwalk. I always wanted to work at Secrets but the pay wasn't anywhere near the same, they only pay they're guys $6.50 an hr, and that's not under the table..

Size really doesn't matter, to a point. At the Club that I work at, I am the largest bouncer there. However there are 12 other bouncers some as small as 5'10" weighing in at 150lb, and most do their job very well. When ever one of the bouncers has a problem, they call out on the radio, identifying what part of the bar they are in, and then about 8 or 9 guys will be running to assist them. Most of the time when someone sees that many people in black security shirts running at them, they calm down really fast! I like the fact that I am large, it helps because most of the time people don't argue with me. I tell them what I want and they do it! Sometimes it doesn't work like that and then I call on the radio for some help, regardless of how big you are you still will need the other bouncers to help out. You never know when one of the asshole's buddies will jump in. So I always call for backup.

It is hard to not just walk around and check out the hot ladies, I have worked the stage, on nights when they let the ladies only on the stage College Night, and have had girls rub all over me trying to get a rise! It makes it very hard to watch what is going on!

Never the less I endeavor to persevere!

I think the best way to get a job as a bouncer, is to go to the club that you wish to work at, and become friends with the bouncers, get to know them all and hang out with them. Make sure that what ever happens you don't start trouble, they will never hire a trouble maker. Trouble makers aren’t good for business, be it a customer or an employee. When ever there is a problem, be there, and if asked, assist. After a while the bouncers will start to ask you why you don't work there as a bouncer. It worked for me; I start at a new club this Saturday night.
