Hi there, me again.
Well, you would not believe it! A few nights ago I worked a large party for 1,400 people. It was raining and they all came in with wet coats and umbrellas. They didn't all come in at once, they just sorta trickled in and it was manageable between the 5 of us that were working coatcheck.
BUT, they all decided to leave at once. You wouldn't believe how drunk some people can get on beer and/or wine! And, how it quickly turns into a "mob" mentality. I called for security, but it was too late, the damage was done (more on that later).
Now, these people work for a very well known, respectable accounting firm and you would expect them to act accordingly. I was afraid that they would crush each other and it was good that the coat room was literally "walled-in" or they would have rushed us and trampled us to get their coats. You would've thought that we were giving away gold bars and diamonds.
My question is this: Why? What's the rush? Your coat will still be there, even if you have to wait 10 minutes for it.
Security? I talked to them after the fiasco and they assured me that they were there, but they didn't do anything to calm the situation, they just stood by and watched!!! What were they thinking!?
