I worked in several clubs in college and immediately after, and was threatened regularly. These guys wanted to come in at closing time, I said no (partly because they were already drunk). The small one didn't like it and jumped on my back with his arms around my neck. I slammed him backwards into a wall, and another little one stuck me in the shoulder witha dam pen knife. He went thru a window. The other two who were bigger jumped in, they weren't big enough.

I was in better shape then, and younger. I was fortunate that the cops knew me, one showed up in the middle of it, and the whole thing was on tape. Choke me and stab me and I will get perturbed.
