Ok, so people already were aware of my previous ordeal at the Rocket Room which resulted in me copping a $200 fine from the cops for nothing, but the security at RR have struck again.
Heaps of times I've seen them kicking people out for no good reason, but the incident I am about to regale you with is beyond a joke. On Saturday night I went to an end of year work function, so had a good feed and plenty of red wine, then a group of us got dropped into the city. Was meant to be meeting up with everyone's mate SOD at Rocket Room, so we headed there.
SOD himself was three sheets to the wind, but still coherent, but they wouldn't let him in so he caught a cab with some of the other dudes that were heading home. I went in with the others and had some more drinks. The night was getting on a bit and I was thinking I should head off soon and pondering how I should get home, over my last drink. The combination of the big meal, wine and more drinks, plus the late hour meant I was getting a bit tired, so anyone our friendly neighbourhood bouncer must have noticed me getting a bit drowsy so said it was time to leave, to which I agreed. So I was walking out, and just as I get to the doorway, he shoves me in the back and my right eye makes contact with the door frame - splitting a gash across my eyebrow and causing blood to start pissing out.
When I'd turned around and looked back the gutless fuck had disappeared back inside. At least the bar manager (who is a top bloke) came out and gave me some padding to try to stop the bleeding and was very apologetic, saying he was sorry and that it shouldn't have happened. My eye has been swollen for most of the week and the bruising is only just going, still have the gash across the eyebrow though.
Seriously, what the fuck.
