I'm surprised Vauxhall haven't got you working in customer services.
Do they know about your sideline ?

I work at Mission in Bedford, you probably havn't heard of it but it's a pretty big club. Had a few stars there too... from Eastenders on seperate occasions; Robbie, Steve Owen, Beppe... The So Solid Crew... Tim Westwood dj'd for a whole night for a private hire... Daniel Beddingfield (spelling?) sung 'Gotta Get Thro This' when it was big... The Honeyz... etc etc blah blah blah.
Yes they know about me being a doorman, when i first started my supervisor just said 'that's handy to know' lol.
It's ok, i get the social life without the hang-over. Whilst people are p*ssing their money up the wall in the club i'm actually earning, and i feel better in the morning

I don't work the door, i choose to work inside where all the action is. Makes the night go alot quicker, it's warmer and i'm in the atmosphere.
Slap 'em? Never sir, always escorted with the correct procedures
Ive been doing it about a year now, got my licence when i was 18. Risky business, ive had some *very* close shaves.

Don't they give you a huge discount on buying a Vauxhall Craig? Good to see you've seen the light though!

Technically i wouldn't because i work for Premier, only IBC get the discounts.
My dad's Chief Officer for IBC at the Luton plant though so i'd geta better discount through him. At one point i was looking at the Astra Coupe Convertible 2.0i 16v Turbo:
OTR price = £19,995.00
Partners price = £17,617.20
Saving = £2,377.60
Depending on the model, Vauxhall Partners and their famalies are eligible for Partners savings of upto 17% on a new Vauxhall or Saab. The convertible worked out at a 12% discount.
