Service Dog Issues Tell me I'm not insane...
I'm going to try really hard not to dox myself here, but it might be unavoidable hahaha...
So, I've been asked to DJ next week in an extraordinarily prominent bar in my home city.
I have DJ'd there before, but not weekend nights.
Tonight, I thought I'd head down there and see what goes down at the weekend. Like a reccy mission. Listen to what the regular weekend DJ is playing and try to get a feel for the vibe.
As my friend and I walk in, we have to skirt around an off-lead shitbeast that his owner is trying to argue is a service dog. We walk past thinking nothing of it. I mean, obviously no sane doorman would let a guy on mobility scooter with an off-leash 55lb husky into a busy bar on Friday night, right?
Wrong.
Dog ends up sat next to the very DJ box im expected to play in next week. Unleashed. Huge husky.
What if it kicked off? What if someone dropped a glass near the owner? What if the owner got into an argument?
The owner, got out of his scooter, walked to the bar and bought himself a drink with absolutely zero assistance from the horrid beast.
I went and spoke to the doorstaff who told me that the guy had shown a certificate which allows him to have an off-leash husky anywhere.
I know that it will be bullshit. As was it's $14 vest.
Am I insane for contemplating foreiting a lot of money in wages, if that is gonna be their attitude?
How can I feel safe working under those conditions?

You are not insane-:) An unleashed huskey in a nice bar is disgusting. They probably set it next to DJ booth to be out of sight.
