19 thoughts every guy has while trying to get the shift

But we want to give you guys more credit. So with the help of a few good men, we’ve delved into the thoughts of an Irish guy out to get the shift…

1. In without any hassle from the bouncer. Surely that’s the sign of a good night ahead…

4. Why do girls stare like that? Are they trying to analyse whether I’m a creep or not? I’m not a creep!

12. Did I really just fall for that again? No one must know about this. *goes back to the dance floor in shame*

13. OK, a girl is making eye contact with me and it doesn’t appear to be because she thinks I’m a creep.
