Title: Becoming a bouncer
Post by: Darren Avey on January 10, 2010, 04:18:38 AM
You dont need to know how to fight, how to restrain people or how to talk and diffuse situations! All you need to do is go to the gym,take a few roids get all pumped up and you re automatically a hard ass and can be a bouncer!!

Ability to operate one of these is desirable:

but not essential, as training can be given on the job.

this is very true actually.....The ass beatings people that end up doin this are epic & quite funny to watch...A muscle bound idiot with zero fighting skills swing wildly at a guy that is much smaller than him yet utterly dismantling him.....

       pay isn't worth the risks of getting shot or sued when you execute your duties.

I bounced for a while for some extra money between jobs. not worth it at all. FIrst night was escorting a guy out and he turned around and threw a glass at some other guy splitting his lip. The guy tried to sue the bar and me. 

Also, I had to ask tweeked drug dealers to leave the bar quite often, and they were always pissed and kinda humiliated. Just what I wanted, some meth head with a grievance for me in my neighborhood. WHo the fuck knows what one of these low lifes is capable of. Not worth it at all.

i know a guy that was a former member on getbig....he was a low level NPC competitor, had never been in a fight in his life, and was afraid of the dark....after i failed him out of the police academy he became a bouncer...he thinks he is bullet proof now!..he is strung out on all kinds of drugs....and shrunk from 230+ to a 150lbs soaking wet twink....he still bounces wearing the tightest under armour available..and now gets his ass kicked on a nightly basis...and claims to be banging playboy centerfolds every night.....even though females are repulsed by him..

imagine acting up at frank mir's bar, the spearmint rhino
i wouldnt want to be the drunk fool that creates a ruckus in there when he's on duty

speaking of which, is it a coincidence that his sponsor, ecko, also has a rhino and the place he works security also named rhino? these kinda things fascinate me

yeah thats messed up, its a dangerous world for sure, but with alot of professions i think the reward outweighs the risk. can make good money as a bouncer and you probably get to sex alot of the hot women who drink at the bar too.

You know that feeling when you've taken some pills that make you start talking too much?  You start to think to yourself "I need to stop talking because I'm making a fool of myself." but you keep talking.

Of course there may be upsides, plus it depends where your working too, if your working in a big city as oppose to a smaller town, then the risks might be smaller, but these days with all the psycho's carrying guns and knives, it aint worth it.

I did bouncing a while back before I worked at the Detention Center but I moved on to a corporate security firm.  More pay and less dangerous.  Being a bouncer sounds much cooler than it really is.  Drunks are always a problem and even if they don't fight, dragging them out after they have puked and vomited always leaves a nice smell on your clothes.  Not only that, people are carrying more guns into the club and with bartenders being more lazy on who has drunk too much, its a recipe for a serious calamity.

My advice, just take a regular security job.  Avoid being a bouncer because it ain't like the movie Roadhouse.

translation: they hired the muscle bloke not me the martial artist  ::)

heres a tip buddy... they don't want bouncers who will beat the fuck outta people (thats a huge liability)... they want bouncers who have a physical presence...  :-* now security at a whorehouse then your fighting skills are desired.. good luck...  ;D

Chuckle, couldn't carry pepper spray, guns, tasers etc.  They were afraid that it would get on everyone .  I used a pointed kubotan instead.  Small, compact, and good for pressure point takedowns.

You don't need to be 300 pounds and know 7 forms of martial arts.  You simply need some common sense and keep a cool head.

As a bouncer I can tell you the worst part of the job is listening to drunk retards babble on and on all night about their worthless lives. Stupid bitches yelling in your face about deserving to get in for free, and stories from their boyfriends about how they used to be pretty big like you, but now they train mostly mma...fights are a relief when they happen cause you're so tired of drunk dipshits that it's nice to let out a little steam. I bounce in a predominately white college town, so no guns and only random knife pulling, money is great, and hot college girls are plentiful..not a career move, but I only work 30 hours a week and always clear 600 a week in salary and tips, which let's me pay for rent, school and food....definitely not for everyone

lol those are awful, they never shut up and most times they're all touchy feely too, I really wish they made a reality show that followed bouncers..just so everyone could see for themselves how retarded they act in a club
and all these little guys talkng about bouncers just being big dudes and not knowing how to fight obviously have never been in a club or have been or met a bouncer...rule #1 always as a bouncer is you have each others backs, so no matter how skinny fast, superhuman mma fighter you are, if you start trouble, rarely ever will just one bouncer take you on...and I don't care how tough you think you or your friends are, when there are 3-5 guys who outweigh you by over 100 pounds trying to subdue you it's going to happen...and you will be choked, dominated and embarressed...

I used to help out a friend that ran a security company and run the door at raves.  This was the bomb. A  bunch of little ravers.  I would look into their bags for weapons and snag a fucking boat load of drugs. Also make a lot of money from people trying to get in without tickets and they'd slip me a $50 or $100 for them and friends to get in.  I could easily make $1000 in a night and for a guy in college that was bank!  Later on in the night when I was done I'd head into the rave, hit up the nice chicks and hook them up with some free drugs that I nabbed earlier.  It was way too easy.

Anyways I was asked to help bounce at this black club worked on a saturday night and holy shit what a fucking mess.  Nothing serious went down but then the next night a couple haitians were causing trouble and got thrown out and shot up the front of the club hitting a few people including one of the doormen.  That was enough for me to never do that shit again.
