    I have to comment on this. I know you meant for this comment to be general, but I have to say that everyone that worked this event at The Bar (other than the band) actively wanted to work it, for both the entertainment value and the potential economic impact, from what I understand.
    Sounds like The Bar's management are great people to work for. And yes, I intended the comment to be general: I'm glad that was clear.
    Seshat's self-help guide:
    1. Would you rather be right, or get the result you want?
    2. If you're consistently getting results you don't want, change what you do.
    3. Deal with the situation you have now, however it occurred.
    4. Accept the consequences of your decisions.

      Yes, every one of us bar staff that night were up there by choice. However, there was still some stuff none of us were prepared for and one of the staff (yes, she was allowed to leave early) didn't realize or think about how uncomfortable this scene would make her (no, that was not me).

      Don't get me wrong. It was lots of fun and I adored it but there was one guy who, had I had a sword with me, might not have a hand anymore.

        Amusingly, I was there...with a large sword...and RW knows fully well she could have borrowed it if she needed to. Of course, that probably would have cost one or both of us our job, but just saying...it WAS there for the asking!

            I wonder who the first person will be to say something like "this thread is useless without pics!!".
            Pics or shens!

            I actually had a long conversation about the concept of 'swinging' with a friend of mine who made me think a lot better about it then I previously did (I'll admit, before that I was kinda put off by the idea, since all I'd heard prior were the negative stereotypes).

            And that sounds like a hell of a lot of fun to be working there.

                My bad - I meant my quotes to try to indicate that I was using the term as a metaphor. I'm drawing a blank on a good term to use - basically, I was trying to explain that (in my experience) there's always someone who's sober, staying non-involved, and available to discuss matters of safety and consent with.
                How about "Referee"?
