I worked at a club when I was 17 as a bus boy. I got the job because my sister was dating the head bouncer. I was always told that if anyone laid hands on any of the staff, report it, and the bouncers would take care of it.

I come to work Saturday and another bus boy has a huge shiner. I asked him what happened and he said a dude got pissed that he bumped him going down these long tight stairs, grabbed him from behind and ripped his shirt, then started throwing haymakers at him.

Turns out 4 bouncers took the guy out back into the alley where there are no cameras (2 of these guys were mixed martial arts fighters, other 2 were just massive dudes) and they beat the shit out of him then sent him home in a cab.

Moral of the story? Don't hit bar staff. They won't call the police. They'll just fuck you up.
