I'm a fairly big and strong dude. I hate my current job and want to change careers. I think I would be a good goon, like a character Batman beats up before a boss fight in an Arkham game or that Noir detective outsmarts. How does one acquire such a job? I don't see any posting on Indeed.

Honestly strip club bouncer is probably better than my current job. At least I get to sit down.

I had a friend who had a strip club go in at street level below their apartment (a somewhat odd zoning decision in a mostly residential/commercial area.) Was kind of funny though - they ended up being close with the bouncers who really liked their little dog, and they had enough of a relationship with the DJ that they could text if the music/bass was too loud (they did first/swing shifts) while the club adjusted to the new environment. They were a union organizer though, so I was impressed, but not surprised, they could find common ground.
