I worked at a club in Atlanta about 10 years ago as a cocktail and bartender. We had to have an entertainer's license to work there, and I was advised that I could do lap dances if I wanted. Even though I had that golden goose that offered me $500 for a fully clothed dance once, I never did. So not cool. If ya wanna be a dancer, be a dancer. I don't think that kind of encouragement by management is too cool either, especially when you have ladies paying out the nose to be there. Everyone should be a shot girl and do dances then! What's the motivation to continue to pay stage fees/house??
(Ok, in hindsight, I was kind of stupid to not do the song and take that guy's money, but I was still hung up on my own insecurities regarding dancing and being a sexy beast.)
I am sooooo sorry this is happening. Have you talked to your manager about it?
