Seeing as there has been some stories involving alcohol which ended badly, it made me remember of the times I've worked limo lot and dealt with limos. The drivers are usually nice people and know what to do, and you can't help but feel bad for some of the people they have to drive. Now, most people usually take a limo to an event because it could be a big night out for them and they want to drink inside the arena and not worry about causing trouble. They are also used for special occasions as I have seen plenty of dates in them at times.
Limos carry three types of SCs; the entitlement idiot who thinks he's great just because he/she is riding a limo, then there is the person who flat out treats the driver like crap or "Lord Asshole", the third one is the worst type of limo SC: The Pre-Drunk.
The Pre-Drunk is the worst type of SC you can get when it comes to working at an arena. If the limo has plenty of booze, 99% chance of it then you are likely to be in for a tough night. One pre-drunk may be bad but if you have them in a group headaches are likely to occur and there are times when one wants to quit.
One night I worked Bon Jovi and it was around the time his new album came out earlier this year. I find myself to be in limo lot which meant I would assist the limos while a coworker parked them. For the whole night, I got drunken things said to me, nothing insulting just very funny stuff to hear. However it got a little out of hand when this older woman is standing near me and saying all sorts of strange stuff. Very obvious that she's had too much to drink. She starts asking if I am single, I tell her that I am seeing someone and that I have work to do. Later on, her husband comes up to me and tells me that I was flirting with his wife; a lie obviously but he was snookered also. Things start to turn a little nasty with him getting into my face when thankfully security pulls him away from me.
And that is why I do not like the limo lot.
