Music and Work: Musicians suck

Musicians suck

Today, in my job as an assistant at a music venue, I had to get posters signed by that night's performer. When I walked into the dressing room, I was told, "unless you're sucking my cock then get the fuck out of here" and had the posters slapped out of my hands. It's my job to deal with these pricks.

I just work here, lady

Today, I was working a concert ticket booth. A lady gave me her ticket, I punched it, and told her to enjoy the show. She asked for the “hotel.” Apparently, she thought that the concert ticket cost included a hotel stay, since she traveled from out of state. She cussed me out and had to be escorted out. FML

Rock n Roll is a dirty business

Today, I was in a band with some friends and we got our first gig at a local festival, but I'd already agreed to work serving drinks at the festival. My bandmates got really annoyed and kicked me out of the band. They then went ahead and performed the song that I WROTE, without me, at the festival where I was working. FML

Top brass

Today, my boss told me to kick out of the hotel anyone who was clearly a prostitute trolling for men. I spotted a woman in a miniskirt approaching a guy in the bar, so I told her politely to leave. Despite the skirt, turns out she's the hotel manager and the man was her fiancé. I got fired so hard and fast. FML

Today, I went to a work event and was having my picture taken with a coworker. Since we had done karaoke together, someone said we should pose like we were singing. I held my hand up like I was holding a mic and opened my mouth. It looked like I was performing a sex act. My boss glared at me. FML

Today, I walked into a concert that I've been waiting months for. Immediately after passing through the doors, I was accused of sneaking in and thrown out. They wouldn't even look at my ticket, or the hand stamp they'd given me. FML

Today, I checked into a hotel because my boss had assigned me to a new position. As soon as the reception lady looked up, she had me kicked out of the hotel. Apparently, one of the regulations is, "No prostitutes allowed." I was wearing a business suit. FML

Today, I was at a nightclub when some dick squeezed the ass of the girl beside me. She whirled around and started yelling and slapping me across the face. I was dragged out by the bouncers, to cheers from the people around us. FML

Today, a stripper came into my work to get some posters copied. She asked if she could pay in small bills. I just touched $50 that have probably rubbed up against a stripper's twat. FML

Today, I went to a great concert. Against all odds, I got to meet the band. All I had for them to autograph was a flyer protesting their concert that was given to me on the way in. FML

Today, I was security at a shopping centre and tried to stop a guy from drinking in public. He told me to fuck off and "go play cops and robbers somewhere else", so I tried to escort him to the security office. He picked me up with one hand and threw me in the fountain. My boss let him go with a warning. I hate my job. FML

Bands like that don't deserve fans.

Would really like to know which band it was. That's so rude. Don't they know they need fans!?

Well he sounds absolutely charming, just the sort of fellow I would want to see in concert. But really FYL OP, you're just trying to do your job. Just tell your boss what happened if you couldn't get the wanker to sign it.

To avoid such things in the future, perhaps try getting the artists to sign prior to performance, or they don't get to perform. Not that it will save you from running into this in the future, but could be a way to avoid it. An artist wants to perform. Also, I'd be sure to send word to his future venues about his attitude... And I've had charged him with assault for slapping me!

69- How absolutely charming of you. :p Just because he said so, or will any reason suffice?

69- you should've, or OP? I'm sure OP would be happy to give you the opportunity. You perform the ******* and OP will obtain signatures. Works...

I'd like to know which artist this was so that I can make a mental note not to see them perform live. The only rudeness I've ran into when attending concerts in relatively small venues was from the managers, the artists themselves are usually very sweet and level-headed. Next time an artist does something like this you should slap the posters down in front of them with a bottle of lube and tell them to do f*ck themselves.
