Mr. Funke went in and then came back and told me that a junkie looking deadbeat had approached him. The guy said "geeuz a pound" So hubby raised his fist and said "okay, I'll give you a pounding" The guy legged it out and was seen running away down the street. Hubby said it was either me or him and it wasn't going to be me. He's lived in big cities before and knows how to defend himself. He said the guy only wanted money but he couldn't take any chances. After that I got an escort to the toilet. He stood guard while I went in.

Maybe they need bouncers to work in their toilets?

 

This must have been an isolated incident. We don't have this problem. All pubs have the odd incident. That's life.

 

 

Bouncers in the loos? Nah.

at least if someone pukes at 11.30 when the bars rammed someone clears it up immediately!

 

I think places use this service as they care about the state of their toilets and in that kind of environment they [the toilets] need all the help possible.

 

I just always flick them a quid the first time I go and then forget about it...it's no big deal.

 

Different strokes and all that

Well maybe those poor Nigerians are now kept in the celler, scrubbing the floor with thier bare hands, but where you can't see them - or maybe they were just made redundant eh?

 

Lots of people have rubbish jobs, but what's that got to do with you?

 

working all day in the toilet. Not getting a break. forced to work wherever the chain puts them. They speak limited English and so no real job prospects and no prospect of EVER doing another job within the company.

 

Sounds great.

Are you serious about the above?

 

Did Vodka Revolution have a team of specially imported Nigerians that were never allowed out of the toilets and shipped around the country for this special task?

 

I agree that it wouldn't be a career of choice, but so what?

 

It's hardly 3rd world child labour

When I used to manage a bar I was approached by very smart business people who have realised that there is a niche for staff to keep toilets clean throughout an evening.

 

I love the sentiment just because these people are black the bars must be abusing their human rights..get off your high horses!!

 

If there isn't any puke/blocked toilets/floods then for my money its not a bad idea.

 

Like Lex said different strokes and all that.
