Ron Jeremy (again)
In our club, our only women's bathroom is also connected, directly, to the dressing room. So if a female custy goes to take a piss, she can walk into the dressing room and do whatever the fuck she feels like doing. I hope they can put a door up sometime soon, but I doubt they will. :/

Let's see, things I don't want in a club.. Well, here's a list for ya!
*disrespectful jackholes
*backstage cattiness
*the same 6 or so rap/pop/R&B
songs everyone and their mother
seems to dance to
*pimps
*exes
*cheap-o customers
*guys who proposition us just
because of our line of work
*dirty, or even just dirty looking,
ANYTHING!
*girls who come in late and/or
leave early without a good excuse
*lockers that don't work
*thievery
*girls who do "extras"
I know, some of these things were mentioned already, but they get on my nerves, too! ESPECIALLY the thing about girls leaving early and/or coming in late without a good excuse! It's a job, people! Just because it's not a NORMAL job doesn't mean you should disregard opening/closing times.. That just ruins it for the girls who are actually working hard, because it pisses the managers, the bartenders, and everyone else off and they take it out on whoever's there that's not a customer.
And then there's the girls who do "extras". Talk about giving the profession a bad name! And then these girls actually have the balls to complain about the bad name that stripping is getting..
I'm sorry... Just had to unload!

Nobody's mentioned filthy dirty men's rooms. Some of them have urine all over the floor, no soap, water, or towels, disease encrusted toilet seats...
So guys walk in there and come back out, walk on the floor where you sometimes walk barefoot, and touch their money and maybe you. Nice thought, isn't it?
Make the management clean the men's rooms.

Going to strip clubs is my favorite pasttime. You'd think I would want a change of scenery once in awhile, but nope. On my days off...Im out at some other club having fun. Its strange. I can completly seperate work strip clubs from fun strip clubs. When Im at work, I dont pay attention to or notice other girls. But when I go out, I love watching girls on stage, I love watching peopel get dances, I enjoy the whole atmosphere of partying in a strip club. And when im at work, I dont party like that, I dont drink, I work. Completly seperate things.
Yep, that's me too. I actually dragged my best friend I hadn't seen in a while to her first strip club last month. It was cute, she was really nervous. I bought her her first lapdance too :D

Pool tables
Megatouch machines (mainly because it's hard for me to stay off of them and talk to the customers-I'm addicted to them!)
Video games
Dart boards
A housemom-I'm an adult and can handle bringing my own things to work
Gambling/slot machines-go to the casino if you wanna gamble!
No cover charge-encourages too many cheapskates to come in
A stage that is tough to dance on because it's slippery/uneven/too small/dirty
Not enough seating around the stage
Strict schedules
Having to work longer than an 8 hour shift
Tip walks-I don't like them, it feels like begging to me. If a guy wants to tip me, he can come up to the stage when I'm on stage.
Rap music
And of course, cheap/rude/grabby customers and mean/snooty/strung out/wacko dancers. :D

Songs that repeatedly say:
"you can get this lapdance here for free" Ugh. Can not. Stop giving them ideas.
Tongues. I'd prefer if only customers without tongues visited. Hmm.
Hands. I'd also prefer if only customers without hands visited.
Basketball shorts. One word = Ew.
Therapy. (I just wanna get naked for you, please don't analyze my life when you know nothing about me)

Hey now! That song is hot! It's by Pharell...but yea, you're right..some songs have hidden messages that custys (the few smart ones) can pick up on.
*cK singing: Oooh baby you want me, well you can get this lapdance here for free...* :sing:
Another thing I don't want in a stripclub: FREAKING SPECIALS EVERY 30MIN. Can you please give the customers some sort of incentive? Don't offer 2-4-1's if they aren't buying regular priced dances. If they are spending, then they'll feel like it's a special treat when the special comes on.
Thats one thing I loved when I was at Vu, either you made it in time for the special, or you didn't. There was no, "oh come get me when the next special was" cause the next one wouldn't be for another 3-4hrs!

*incessant 2-4-1 specials, $2 drink night, 2-4-1 CR night (yes, my current club actually does this), and all other "specials" and forms of pandering to cheap-ass losers. Pay the full price and shut the fuck up! I hate how offering specials gets everyone into cheap-ass mode, like they now EXPECT something for nothing, and they act like I just asked them to chop off their heads on that rare occasion when they actually have to pay full price for a dance. A dance with me is worth AT LEAST the full $20 if not more, dammit.
*outrageous house fees.
*management allowing 327459634823654 girls to work every night instead of capping it.
*losers who "just like to watch" (and not tip). IMHO they should be thrown OUT.
*assholes that rip off dancers and refuse to pay for their string of dances, and bouncers who tell the dancers that they "can't MAKE him pay, sorry." Of course you can make him pay. Beat his ass if you have to. At least TRY to do SOMETHING about it instead of just shrugging and letting him walk away without saying a word!
*Cops. The number-one thing that doesn't belong in an SC.

A weirdly positioned pole. No in corners, or far far away from the customers... or too close to them!
TVs. Hey buddy! Over here! Boobies! No, not the football game, BOOBIES!
Allowing customers to sit at the stage without tipping.
Hookers.
Extras.
Dance specials more than 2 times a night (on VERY busy nights... not just every weekend... if the weekend is slow, NO PROMO).
Hiring too many girls if the customer base isn't solid. Seen it before, no one wins.
Dirty ANYTHING. Hi, I'm mostly naked here. Please clean the chair/couches/bathrooms/dressing rooms/bar top/stage/rugs. Plzkthnx.
I like pool tables but can you maybe have like, ONE? Instead of lots? Thanks!
Non-naked staff that automatically assumes that all strippers are idiots. Dude, I've done your job too, and I am rather smart. Get the eff over yourself.

Anchors. You know, those unattractive, dull strippers who can't hustle. So they sit around with the guy FOREVER taking up space and time. Meanwhile, the guy is looking whistfully at me to get them up and out, and a decent dancer can't usually jump in there and pull out the anchor. Well, unless she wants her ass beaten later.
Also, intimidating, bullying dancers that are not put in check.

women should not be in a strip club unless they are stripping or part of the staff. I realy hate it.
**Warning**
Rant ahead!
Yeah, that's a great idea. Then, you can start looking
at other groups that annoy you and have them
barred from coming in too. Mexican guys bothering you? 86
'em. Fat guys too gross to dance for? Don't allow them
in. Handicapped guys too hard to dance for? Blackball
all of 'em. What a great, fair idea!!!!! You should run for governor!!
This type of generalizing & stereotyping of an entire gender really
knots my colon. Nothing like ostrasizing an entire group of people due
to the misbehavior of some. Way to go.
If I seem abit over sensitive to this issue, well I am. I am a female custy
who is the polar opposite of the bitches that everyone complains about. I
am not like them, and resent being lumped in with them.
Why should I have to pay for their misdeeds?
Put yourself in my shoes for a nano-second, and see how you would feel.
Rant now over.

juke boxes these are very tacky to me its a sure sign of a crappy club I prefer a dj.
I'm a female customer as well as a dancer and it's not uncommon for me to spend 500-2000 when I enjoy a night at a club, I shit you not. I enjoy watching females and I tip them well for ther time and I'm very respectful, dress nicely, smell clean, decline male attention, keep my hands to myself, etc. Stop lumping people together.

Bartenders who fuck with your hustle
Guys selling t-shirts, watches, phones, etc.
Former dancer staff who need to prove they still "got it."
Bizarre and retarded fee structures
Rules inconsistently enforced. (If it's a rule, treat it like a rule. otherwise, don't waste the paper to print it)
Rules that change on a daily basis
Over-priced Dancer drinks, especially when the bar is the only one who benefits
Floor setups that encourage everyone to sit around the bar, instead of at tables. (This sets it up so you have to approach everyone from behind and makes it easy for the drunk former dancer bartender to fuck with your hustle while she's trying to prove she's still "got it.")

Microphones in the dressing rooms. (I've worked in a place that had that to compliment the cameras.)
Oh yeah, I worked in a club that was wired for sound all over the place, the dressing room, the bar, even the fucking DJ booth! I always wondered why the repulsive little geek manager would come running into the booth right after I cussed him out for being a moron and/or a fucking pervert.
Finally a woman who was day manager figured out where the mikes were, and she showed me. After that I would sometimes say "See that spot on the wall? There's a mike hidden behind it.", and BAM beat it with my fist. I didn't last much longer in that club, lol.
How about managers who try to fuck the newbie dancers! (I've seen this alot, very sad)
See above--this guy was notorious for that. But of course the other male staff were strictly forbidden to play with the dancers.
trannies
Well, this is Key West, but it's fun when they come in, no one minds at all.
...you may be well loved in your club. To me, that means you are an ideal female custy. ;)
For some reason, we have a zillion women coming in my club, but they tend to be much better behaved, and they tend to tip really well, and they do help the guys reign in their nastier habits, to some extent. So I like female customers--but I totally understand why some dancers don't. Customers who are dancers as well are the best, I love them.

Outrageously high house fees coupled with too many dancers. Way too many clubs do this and it brings on...
Extras and hookers
Bouncers and DJ's that extort dancers for tips over and above what they have earned.
Schedules
Forcing the dancers to utilize (and therefor tip) House mom and Valet
Pushy costume lady
Poor layout and design. I've worked in clubs that it is impossible to approach the customer face on, only from behind. Big open show rooms aren't good either, they need to be broken up into more intimate seating sections.
Chairs on wheels (not the handicapped kind, the standard kind used at a lot of strip clubs)
Shared restrooms for dancers and customers. Tacky!!
Drink hustle
web cams

I have a killer Oakenfold remix of that song. I don't like the message of the lyrics, either, but it is so good I have to play it anyway. However, there is a way to turn the lyrics to your advantage, if the DJ is capable of pulling this off at the end of the song:
"Well, she's not going to give you a free lapdance--but it'll be worth every single penny! Cinammon hitting the floor, Kisses staying onstage one more song, and Binky coming back at you, song number one...keep those tip dollars coming!"
The specials do suck monkey balls--thank god we never, ever run them in my present club! We don't have to.
I worked in a club where the fucking manager would make me run a fucking T-shirt special every time I built up a good crowd at the tiprail, which would of course kill the mood and the rail crowd--so I'd have to start everything all over again. This would go on all night...

* Jerk Boothes
* Porn showing
* Customers who DO NOT buy dances at all, or tip at stage. You've got one hour to do something fuckers ...or kick rocks!
* Pool tables
* Any customer who lifts their top, female or male. Nothing says white trash than some pasty fuck raising their top to prove something.
* Dancers picking up cash with mouthes, genitals or ass cheeks
* nipple licking
* tounge flicking customers
* Has beens proving they could still be
* Body SPRAY!
* Baby oil
*Clogged toilets, tampons not thrown away and pee on the seats
I dont mind female customers. They do spend money if approached right, for the most part. You just have to "bond" with them. Sure there are those that come in there and frown, but fuck them. who cares. Why let a few sour assholes piss you off? That's retarded. THey are jealous which is a good thing.
The couples that get it on, well... YOU CAN make money off of that. You'll just have to play stupid tramp for a minute. Tell em' they can get more private in the champagne room if they take another girl. Play that shit up and then once you have the money, keep shit in check and talk nasty. Chances are they are loaded drunk so you can probably just sit back and let them make out and you count the minutes.
Jukeboxes can be cheesey but shit if it means I dont have to tip out a DJ or put up with favoritism for a night why care? I love most of the Dj's I have but shit some clubs don't make enough to employ them so it's a jukebox. Personally I dont care either way. At least with a box I can always be in control of what I'm listening and dancing to while on stage.
And is High Heel lover a man or a troll? Just asking.

I"d just overwhelming to smell in the dressing room. Im fortunate because I dont think many if really any at all wear it at my work. I think all stick to perfume or Vanilla based sprays.

I agree. I wear perfume. If you wear quality perfume it shouldn't rub off like people say. Or wear a slightly manlier scent and the man can say he was testing perfumes... although if he's lying to his wife, there's problems to begin with and they're not my problem.
My favourite right now is Armani Code.
^ Exactly!!! here's the thing and people go ahead and start flaming me but
Body spray smells CHEAP! Period point fucking blank. When I smell it , I think two things
1. Low grade stripper
2. Cheap
Now again, things like vanilla, or something sorta smell neutral is different. And whatever. But shit like love spell BLECH! just buy fucking perfume already. If you smell like money you'll make some money.
And who cares if it slightly rubs off on a custy., that's his issue not mine. As callus as it may sound. But if you are rubbing on someone that hard, or wearing so much it sticks to someone else, you should rethink the amount you are using! A scent should be light not over powering and it should be delicate not lingering long after you are gone.
Dancers that wear shit like love spell etc just remind me of dancers in dives that hover over the house mom's body spray shit and spray every god damn inch of their body.
Being unique is not only in your clothing, or your makeup but your scent.
I like Micheal Kors Micheal and also Versace that's in the damn gold bottle., I can't recall what it's called. it's been in my room forever. OH and org. Burberry and weekend is also nice.

^^Ugh I hate body spray too. Smell cheap, customers think cheap. Read my post here on why Cartier is my favorite right now:
And why do girls that use body spray have to spray, like 15 spritzes, all over themselves and the dressing room every time they come in the back?? I hate choking on that shit!
