A Way Out
In Great Britain, all bar staff and premises that have a licence to serve alcohol are trained to respond to the phrase "Can I speak to Angela?" or "Is Angela there?". It is a code word for people that are being stalked or feel unsafe because of another person. If you say the phrase, they will take you to the staff room and lock you in there and ask if you want them to call the police or if you just want to wait there for a while until the person goes away or if you need a taxi.
