shirty30 Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 He really only said "I only kissed my girlfriend"? There wasnt anything else to the story? Nope, My brother is not an argumentative or troublesome guy, in fact he's the opposite, it was always me that had to stick up for him at school and fight his fights for him,.. he really is quiet and I think thats why he gets targetted sometimes. (In fact he was out with myself last sunday when some n*b just walked up and smacked him!) But the bouncers made out that they were 'making out' in the pub, but my brother assures me it was just one kiss! I know myself that they aren't a touchy feely couple in public so I believe my bro wasn't 'making out' like the bouncers stated. But don't get me wrong I'm NOT slating all bouncers, they do a job I would never be brave enough to do! it's just the odd bad apple that gets the decent ones tarred with the same brush!!

madmutant Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 MOST bouncers in my experience are tosspots. The power goes to their head and they think they have the right to act and talk how ever they want. They get away with this because the people they talk to in this way, they will accept this because they won't to get into the establishment otherwise. I've come across some right ****head bouncers in my time, I think most of them were taught no manners and aren't fit to work in public. just my opinion.

JBee Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 Are you a journalist of the written form of the discipline? The reason I ask is that your spelling seems a bit ropey for someone that writes for a living. Not a massive criticism, just an idle observation - which I'm sure you won't mind, given the amount of personal info you've posted. There's always one isn't there? Yes my spelling on this Forum is terrible, because I tend to post quickly, in between work stuff, and often don't read through what I've written. I'm also mildly dyslexic, which doesn't affect either my intelligence or ability to do my job well. It simply means that I make sure all articles I write are carefully proof-read and spell-checked before submission. Thanks for pointing it out though. Now lets get back on topic shall we.

slimsid2000 Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 Do bouncers carry weapons? I have not heard of this before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobody Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 There's always one isn't there? Yes, me. Can I hazard a guess as to which publication you write for? I'm getting faint whiffs of Exposed magazine here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBee Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 Can I hazard a guess as to which publication you write for? I'm getting faint whiffs of Exposed magazine here... Sorry, what is Exposed? Is it local? Not lived in Sheffield for a few years. I used to work for the Star at one time (for my sins), then did a stint on the nationals, then was a features editor for women's magazines, but as I said, I now write health features and medical stories for specialist health publications. The spellcheck facility can get you far these days. Not sure why this is relevent, but can only assume you have a low opinion of Exposed... What is it?

nobody Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 Local rag that doesn't have any balls. Attracts all the local student wannabe journos who aren't fit to whisper the name of Hunter S. Thompson - that's not a reflection on you. Sorry to bother you and thanks for all the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jh 66 Posted May 31, 2006 Author Share Posted May 31, 2006 Sorry to hear everyone's negative experiences/opinions about the d***heads amongst the doorstaff circuit- the bad ones need whacking...sorry, sacking! I may know one or two of the one's mentioned at Millionaires/Flares. But there are a great many decent and more polite and civilised ones out there, too.

carcrash Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 If people have complaints about door staff get in touch with The SIA http://www.the-sia.org.uk/home The oversee the security industry and all doorstaff have to be regestered with them. Each member has to have a badge with a number on them at all times when they are working. People who are working unbadged can get hefty fines and prison time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
