Here at Club Millennium we like to be original, and the first to bring you unique ideas. It's 2 am, and I'm still cleaning carpets as the result of my manager's latest and not so greatest idea, the STYROFOAM PARTY
Some of you may remember when we had this idea to do the "Blizzard of Oz". A rock show that involved spraying and blowing around those "packing peanuts" that you use when you ship or move. These little things are very fun to play in. So we decided to get almost 500,000 packing peanuts and spend a ton of money building a contraption to blow them around in.
People didn't know what to do. I work in a night club where people dance, and they like themes where they can dress up and be completely different of what they are in the daytime. Trust me, you think the girl at the supermarket is quiet and reserved until you see her break it down with 4 dudes. Craziness. But..the point...People didn't know what to do. I think we should have just invited kids 8 and under to come and play in the packing peanuts inside of a plastic contraption. The ultimate unsafe experience that would change their lives. Because, I know if I were 7 years old jumping in a sea of packing peanuts, I would have reached life's greatest moment. So again..back to the point! (adult add is best at 2am) People just felt so uncomfortable and weird being in a sea of packing peanuts. Our foam parties explode but thats dancing in a giant soapy pool, not in packing peanuts. Might have well been dancing in a box.
It gets better....
Little did we know, half of those packing peanuts were recyclable. So due to the heat and moisture produced in a night club they melted and formed to the floor. These things are comparable to carving gum out of the floors. The other packing peanuts, simply clung and stuck to every piece of carpet, glass, wall in this club. It's tuesday, we've all been cleaning since sunday and I could say that we're 1/2 way done.
Now we're stuck with bags and bags of packing peanuts that we don't want. My manager has suggested to put them on Craiglist. I hope to god that I get to deliver these to the lucky person that offers the most on craigslist. Unless you're moving a 16 room mansion, I have no idea what you would do with these things.
The moral of the story is, some ideas although unique, are not the best. Stick to what you know.
