Every night is worse than the last (longish)
It seems that every night I work is worst than the last as far as customers go. Some of you all may remember my post about the club that I used to work at getting raided and shut down. Well it seems that ever since that club closed we are getting all their cheap ass customers who are used to full nude grind $5 dances and not buying girls drinks and other sleezy classless activities that were involved with that club. When I first started at my new club it was classy, I made great money and never felt uncomfortable or degraded. Lately guys have been coming in a gawking at us and not tipping or get dances or even at the very least buying ladies drinks and its pissing me off (im not the only one). Plus they act as if we are prostitutes, I have been propositioned several times and it disgusts me. Not to mention they are just down right rude and nasty.
The other night topped it all though and was by far the worst thing that has happened to me in my short dancing career. I was on stage dancing and there where a lot of guys tipping (oddly enough) so I was going around the stage dancing and collecting tips when i got to this one guy. When I got to him he looked away (after staring pretty damn hard when I was dancing for the guy next to him) as if he werent interested. Well I danced for him then pulled out my garter for my tip and he made a disgusted sound and said "you girls never quit do you?" I laughed and smiled as I watched him fiddle around in his wallet for a tip. He pulled out a two dollar bill (which is what my club gives as change when guys buy drinks, so its not at all uncommon to be tipped in twos, I leave with at least $20 worth every night) he stuck it in my garter and and said something to me that I didnt hear. I moved on to the next guy and began dancing, I then feel a hand on my thigh, he yanked his money out of my garter and said (I kid you not) "you dumb bitch, I said I wanted change".....umm on a two dollar bill...you cheap fucking bastard. I started screaming at him telling him that you do not touch the girls or their money and once you tip her it stays there. He started yelling back and I called a manager over who promptly kicked him out.
I was so shocked even more so than that married ass wipe from last weekend. Now if he had a twenty I would have been more than happy to give him change when I got off stage, but a two dollar bill? What an ass clown! It sort of had some good though because the other guys who were tipping tipped me more cause they felt bad. I burst into to tears at the dj booth and went home rather then stay and make more money.

I don't even know what to say. That was raw! Good luck on trying a new job next month. I hope you leave dancing with more happy memories than bad.
Re: Every night is worse than the last (longish)
I know how you feel about nasty, cheap, manipulative customers... but OMG change for a tip on stage? You have got to be kidding me... and change for a freaking $2 bill? That makes me laugh at the poor cheap bastard. I would have given him his $2 bill back and said, "I think you need this more than I do sweetie", with a smile.
I hate it when they ask for change period. I always feel like they should just give me the whole bill and think of it as a tip ::) .

Damn Sarah, you sure get plenty of asshats....
Re: Every night is worse than the last (longish)
If being a dancer doesnt give a girl tough skin I dont know what does. What an asshole! I woulda flipped out on him too.
Re: Every night is worse than the last (longish)
Take comfort knowing men like him have to pay to get laid.If he's that much of a jerk outside the club,count on knowing he has to get hookers to touch him.No other women in their right minds would.
Re: Every night is worse than the last (longish)
Just keep remindeing yourself that you only have 24 more days of dancing. In the mean time i hope everything goes well.
Re: Every night is worse than the last (longish)
That totally sucks! I am so sorry to hear that happened to you! What a fucking asshole!!! If that were me, I probably would have slapped him! What a dick!
Re: Every night is worse than the last (longish)
Man that sucks...what an asshole. If I had some change in my purse, I would've taken a penny out, threw it right in his face, smiled, and said "There. That's your change." :D

I'm sorry that happened to you, he was on a power trip, like when Dan Akroyd came to the club and payed a girl in change laughing.
Re: Every night is worse than the last (longish)

Re: Every night is worse than the last (longish)
What a prick!!!! I am so sorry hon, I would have totally freaked out on him too. My shoe might have 'accidentally' flown off and hit him in the forehead. Lol.
