I worked in a pub once
And I do mean once.

It was quite a nice pub in a not nice area of Liverpool, not far from where Rhys Jones got shot.

A mate worked as a barman there and he got me a job collecting galsses, it was Christmas Eve.

Everything was going fine until after last orders, we were all sat around, counting tips and drinking our free drink when it all kicked off. A massive fight broke out, just like you'd see in a film. People were getting hit with chairs, bottles were broken over heads, people were kicked on the floor, the whole thing.

This was clearly not an unusual event because the carstaff worked like a well-ouiled machine: the male barstaff jumped into the fight and tried to break it up, the female barstaff legged it into the kitchen.

the fight went on for a little bit and people were starting to get really hurt when one of the barmaids said to me: "Aren't you going to help?" I just said "no, are you?" and stayed watching from the safety of the kitchen.

Jump into someone else's fight for £2.13 an hour? Like fuck.
