My wife worked as a bouncer until she was 33 , (the guys in her Kung Fu school suggested that she should do it) THe bouncers are generally very polite and are there to provide security.

On the otherhand, they will tolerate only a tiny amount of insubordination before you find yourself being ejected. If you do get into a confrontation with a bouncer, walk away as they are seriously tough. Glad to say that I have no interest in going to places with bouncers anymore! Must be getting old(er)
