It's ok." and they leave her sitting there in tears while her douchebag boyfriend and friends dance, goof off and throw pieces of ice out of their finished drinks at her.
WTF? Security's reasoning is that they can't be pissing off regulars. I get that. But the whole idea of growing a club is to get hot chicks in there, and that's not going to happen if regulars are seen to be publicly assaulting women. It's not a good image for the business and embarrassing to say it was just allowed to happen. Have you reported it higher up? If you haven't, I'd recommend it, because if someone goes public with that, there'll be trouble. I was with my cousin in the city once and saw this scenario. My cousin broke it up between the couple put this guy in his place for hitting a girl. He ran off only for her to chase after him saying 'she's sorry'. :cry: Half these women deserve these type of blokes in some cases.

I've spoken to my manager about it, but I don't know if anything further will come of it. The problem is, I don't want to rock the boat too much. But at the same time, seeing that happen and their dismissive attitude was just nauseating. as lefty suggested, the girl in this case left with the guy too. It's perplexing to watch. They don't deserve it, but they're going to keep getting it regardless when they don't actively seek to find a real man.

I would've thought there woulda been someone there who'd step up and give the guy some of his own back. Or have we become such a shit society that the majority prefer to sit idly by and not get involved?

Half referring to 50% and 'in some case' which further deludes my comment. So please refer to calling me a proper Australia swear word because 'twat' sounds like you need your working visa revoked so you can fuck off back to England. My wife's ex-partner used to hit her and she had the presence of mind and courage to get up a leave him as soon as it started. Some women don't. I do feel sorry for them but they have to have a screw loose themselves to put up with it.

Most will sit idly by because they don't trust the likelihood that the kind of guy who is willing to beat up on a woman isn't going to stoop to the level of glassing you for intervening. I'm big enough to hold my own and I know most of the regulars and security, so I'm not afraid to stand up to the guy, but your average joe isn't going to be like that. What mainly concerns me is the image that the club itself is portraying, that we don't have a problem with these guys hitting women. At 4am when there are only a handful of places open, you want girls coming in off the street and feeling safe. But hat's not going to happen when you've got a guy who is a 'regular' running amok and seen to be publicly beating a woman.

It's more accepted than 'twat'.
And Darryl Kerringan used it brilliantly in The Castle 'ya bunch of dickheads!'

In case you haven't noticed, all these words are taken from english. So they're not really australian at all, are they?

WGMG: Nicole Sherzingers new song. Can confirm I could write a better bit of music
He was a man of specific quirks. He believed that all meals should be earned through physical effort. He also contended, zealously like a drunk with a political point, that the third dimension would not be possible if it werent for the existence of water.

WGMG: When someone gets shitty with you and ignores you over nothing. FFS, grow up.
WGMGEM: When you care too much about that person so them ignoring you actually annoys you. I don't want to care.

WGMG: any child that acts up automatically being diagnosed with ADHD. My wife's nephew has been 'diagnosed' with it, but when he stays with us he's perfectly behaved. Just a cop out for shit parenting IMO, now he's being doped up on medication at 7 years old.

It's just an excuse for bad parenting. "Oh, Johnny Won't Eat his Vegetables, Must have ADHD". Maybe if you fed him vegetables and not lollies, he wouldnt be a little brat.
