The author recounts a night out with friends, enhanced by the presence of ex-NYPD bodyguards after trying a private security app. The bodyguards not only provided a sense of security but also facilitated their movement through crowded areas like Times Square and the subway system, creating an experience that felt safer and more glamorous. The night culminated at Carousel bar in Bushwick, where the bodyguards waited outside, highlighting the juxtaposition of a carefree night against the reality of needing protection in public settings.
"Clad in 'tactical casual' attire of jeans and slim-fitting black windbreakers, the trio of ex-NYPD officers showed up at 9 p.m. to embark on a carefree girl's night out."
"The NYC subway system has never felt safer. Chris, Taylor and George surrounded Savannah and I on board a southbound 'N' train..."
"They made navigating crowded city streets a breeze - 'gently' pushing aside anyone in our path."
"Once in Bushwick, we walked to the bar Carousel... while the our guards - all armed with semi-automatic pistols - waited outside on the sidewalk."
