Highlighters.

I don't miss highlighters but I don't use them as much as I used to.  In the clubs you would use the highlighter for a variety of reasons.  Mark on the schedule who showed up to work, mark on your dance list the names so you could read it in the near dark, and to write on people.

I think that was my favorite thing.  At one club the other managers and I had a contest to see who could "brand" the most employees with a highlighter.  I won that contest.  If a customer needed to leave the club I would write on them with a highlighter so it wouldn't be as noticeable as a sharpie when they got home.  Sometimes the highlighter was just a way to have fun.

One lady told me that if she could sell a bottle of champagne would I put a smiley face on my nose?  Sure.  She sold it and I had a smiley face on the tip of my nose for the rest of the evening.  The next night was a day off and my buddy talked me into going out to a topless bar.  We walk in and he tells me to look at my nose.  I cross my eyes and tell him to grab a table, I go to the restroom and scrub my nose until the ink is gone.

I don't miss highlighters because I have kids that write on themselves all the time.  Not as much fun when they willingly let me write on them.
