WorldEater I’m sorry. I did not AT ALL mean that how it sounded. I wasn’t telling you to adjust your language…It was meant in jest for me, and may have gotten that point across if I had actually proofread the first sentence to read:

<Looks up at forum title…adjusts language accordingly>

Because I wanted to swear. A lot. I really did. I did not mean for you not to.

:smack:

Faruiza, unless I am severely mistaken, it isn’t against the rules to swear in any forum. Just not at other posters. If I am severely mistaken, then I #@*%$# apologize.

Well, the “most” adjective was missing from the specific statements about specific losses. When the “most” is used, it seems appropriate to me.

Mebbe. I read it differently though. Fer instance, “most” bars do not have cameras keeping an eye on the bartenders. That was the first use of “most” I noticed in this thread and I just extrapolated, perhaps mistakenly, from there.

I’m trying to think of any dance club I’ve been to that have floor staff rather than several bars scattered around the place plus one giant central bar. But I’m not having much luck. I have been in several, though, that easily have 6 to 10 bartenders working a shift. Heck even little ole Texarkana has a country dance club with usually at least 6 bartenders working at the 4 or 5 separate bars.

Then things have changed since my disco-patronizing days. I remember several which had only small bars where patrons could sit and then a large service-type bar for the floor staff.

I know a guy who makes a living as a restaurant & bar “auditor”. His mission is to pose as an unsavvy customer and, knowing essentially all the tricks, determine how many of them are being pulled. He’s been doing this for more than 10 years, is apparently good at it, has no shortage of work, and says that a bar of any size where some angles are not being regularly worked is unusual. A bar owner that isn’t on the ball can expect to be robbed blind.

I wonder how you become one of those. (a paid bar auditor!)
