Judy Hruska profiles bar security shifting from menace to courtesy as bouncers become greeters. Wes Barns, 35, now director of security at Quaker Steak Lube, stresses friendly staff who know the venue. Pete Geis at Alexander's Lounge and Sean Murphy at Choices Niteclub echo the change, noting cards at the door and less threatening appearance plus ongoing food to curb trouble.
