Today's "What Gets My Goat" - NO POLITICS!

When I relocated from Newbury to Kettering I took a stop-gap job in a busy village pub, and because I am "of a larger build" than most people that the landlord and landlady used to insist that that I evict the trouble makers (mostly pissed up farm workers). What used to annoy me is that it soon became a game to these idiots and more and more I was constantly "escorting" people out through the fire exit using their heads to open the doors. What pissed me off that the landlord knowing that i would sort the problem started to get really aggressive with the troublemakers and when they kicked off he would be nowhere to be seen only to pop up again like Mr Ben's shopkeeper once the problem had been dealt with.

I got sick of it and when I started demanding that they get a doorman or at least increase my wages to cover what I was having to deal with, I was laid off.... funny that. Last I heard the pub had got so rough and the landlord could not cope and had given up the tenancy. But I really don't get why people go to pubs purely to start trouble as it ruins everyone's evening.
