Meet the bouncers! #1

Posted:

Hi Dave! How did you become a bouncer?
In the beginning I just wanted to try it out. Later, I started meeting cool people from different jobs and countries. I love meeting new people, so I’m still doing it!

And how long have you worked as a bouncer?
10 years.

What is the most horrible part of a bouncer’s job?
Sometimes needing to deal with drunken people is the worst part.

Tell us a funny incident.
There are so many of those. One night, there was a girl sleeping in the corner of the club, but no one saw her so we locked the door and went home. Next morning, when daytime security came and opened the door, the girl got up and left without saying anything.

What’s the quickest way to get kicked out of a club?
Getting way too drunk is one way. Even though they are members or their guests, we try to put them in a cab.

What’s the quickest way to make you angry?
Yelling at a bouncer without any reason will make him angry. Guests never understand that bouncers are doing their jobs.

What should I not say to a bouncer if I’m waiting in line to get in?
Hmm… I should say that guests can say anything to a bouncer. But it depends if what they say will make them get into the club or not. [Laughs]
