text: VIP Service Definitely NotnnI recently went to vanity nightclub with my startup company and one of our investors to celebrate a large milestone for our company I was not dressed for the occasion since it was an impromptu decision so I had to buy different shoes to get in They also would not let me carry the bag with my clothes into the club so I left it with security along with one of my coworkers things and his IDnnHe left the club early but did not grab our things I stopped by security and they refused to give me the bag even though I could describe the contents in great detail and had a picture of my coworkers ID on my phone They assured me that they would hold onto it for at least days but that my coworker had to be present to pick up our belongings nnTwo days later he went to the club and they could not find our belongings They had him wait for hours and then told him to come back later He went back again and they did the same thing Then I called and talked to a manager After hearing my story he told me that he would look into it and call me backnnWhile I was in the club I was part of a group that dropped several thousand dollars and was treated like a VIP Immediately afterwards I was treated like a nuisance and I had a very nice pair of Brooks running shoes most likely thrown away by a group of people unwilling to give them to me for fear of liabilitynnOn a somewhat unrelated note the DJ was of decent quality but the people in the club are much less attractive than other clubs in the area In the event that our investors want to spend that kind of money on us again I am going to suggest that we find a club that is more selective not just with patrons but also with service staff
