This week I arrived before 5, and I was one of the first people, but the man who runs the door still gave me the very last number. The people who arrived late received number about 30 or 40 lower than mine.We all share the numbers outside, so he’s not fooling anyone. The other patrons laughed at me when they asked my number. At the end, he called out 30 numbers he never even handed out before he got to my number.When he’s done handing out numbers, he mills around in front and trades out lower numbers to people he likes.When I got inside a women told me I should have have shown up earlier if I wanted anything good. I tried to explain what had happened and she said,”they do a drawing.” They don’t do a drawing. It’s not a lottery. The guy who works the door targets certain people for harassment.This happened to me 3 times. Each week I showed up earlier, thinking it might make a difference, but this week the man made sure I understood, I am not welcome. He seems to harbor animosity towards men who have hair, and are taller, thinner, and are better looking than him.
