When my daughter was in her late teens, she worked in one of the local nightclubs until the wee small hours.
I was always worried about her getting to and from the club but I never really considered her safety whilst she was working inside.
One evening, a punter took exception to the speed that she was pouring his drink. He reached over and grabbed her by the throat.
Fortunately she was able to fend him off and he was immediately grabbed by the security staff, who had rushed over at the first sign of a problem. They escorted this individual out of the building.
My daughter was shaken but not stirred and continued to work there for the rest of the year.
