The Almost Fight
Last night was the first that I’ve had to stop a fight at work. I’ve never had to do that last year so this time was a first. As much as I tried to be tough and pretend that I knew what I was doing, clearly I was thinking (and hoping) that none of them punch me out.
They didnt physically touch each other but they were arguing and cussing at each other that they wouldve started fighting in seconds. Then some guy (not a part of either party) stood up and tried to stop one of the guys. That didnt help since I wanted him to sit down. There’s a game going on and people are trying to watch but there’s a stupid fight about to happen. The security came and their own solution was to sit the guy down 2 rows back but I didnt want that since they can still argue at each other. I wanted him ejected. Luckily the cop who was there sitting got up from her seat and took the guy away. I dont know if he was ejected or not. Either way I dont want a fight, not in my section anyway.
The whole situation was clearly ridiculous so I wont even blog about it here. I was just thankful that the lady cop came to the rescue. At the same time, I did feel sorry for the guy because he didnt seem like the a**hole type of guy. Sure he had his piercings but he seemed pretty nice compared to the people he was arguing against. Both parties were drunk so I guess alcohol played a role in the situation.
