Bit of a long winded post, but I would like to hear others opinion on this.
Came back last night from a pretty poor experience in a club in West Leicestershire.
Upon entering, we all paid the entry fee and went in, when I was told by one of the staff to remove my jacket (Of all the clubs i've been to in the Mids, I've never been asked to do that before btw)
I always keep my wallet in my inside pocket because it's quite large, same with my phone so I don't feel comfortable either A) carrying them around in my hand or B) stuffing them in my trouser pocket where they're liable to fall onto the floor. I mentioned this to the member of staff, but he didn't seem to take it very well and insisted I pay to leave everything in the closet.
I was pretty insistent I was not going to leave all my collateral (credit/debit cards etc) with some stranger, and so put all my £££'s in my trouser pocket and removed my jacket and placed it on the seat and sat next to it.
From here it pretty much went downhill, and was cursed at several times before being threatened with violence. On this note, I decided to leave and make my way home, rather than get into a situation or cause all my friends to leave and go somewhere else with me. I did ask to be refunded before leaving and was duly given back my money.
I don't know how else I should have reacted tbh. And feel quite cut up about it, i'd go as far to say it was quite distressing at the time. does it come accross quite childish that I wasn't 'doing as I was told'??
