    Default bartending and/or cocktailing at Delilah's?

    Is anyone here familiar with the bar-staff side of working at Delilah's? I want to bartend and/or waitress there....NOT dance. Does anyone know, when's the best time to go in and apply (i.e. when would I have the best chance of actually talking to a manager, rather than just dropping off an application with the host or door girl)? And I know they start a lot of new dancers out on day shifts until they're "cleared" for nights...but do they do that to bartenders/waitresses as well? (Last but not least...how is the money? I know it probably won't be close to stripper money, but... )

    Your best bet is to go in before showcase and ask for Alp or Mark. They may ask you to dance, though. They already have a LOT of cocktail waitress and shotgirls. But you can still give it a try.

    The bartenders/waitresses all get paid 2.83+tips. The bartenders get a percentage of the waitresses' tips, and then each bar (there are 2) split their tips among the bartenders. Waitresses have to tip out, but they do keep everything else they make. My friend was a bartender and waitress, she said they average $200 a night. Every now and then there will be customers who will tip outrageous amounts, though.

    Also the shot girls seem to make a lot of money, they also are allowed to go in the CR with custies and be paid for it. I don't know if they are hiring them right now, but I'm pretty sure they are hiring waitstaff/bartenders.




    and francesca.....do you still work at delilahs?? lemme know who you are if you do!!

    Now that shit pisses me off! WTF! I know a girl who used to waitress at D's and she was very happy...made decent money. It doesn't have the potential of dancer money though. But if you're sick of dancing it's probably a great break! I agree talk to Alp he's the coolest.

    Hey, are you guys talking about Delilah's Den in Jersey? If so, I'd love to get into the conversation. I"m going to that area in December and would love to work just a few nights. Anyone know anything? How easy would it be to just pop in and work?

    Rose---Wow, I just read on SCL that they closed. Weird. The building seemed nice enough when I was there in Feb checking it out. I wonder what happened?? (haha I don't have the patience to read through the SCL theories). I wanted to work there sooo bad because its so close to my house



    Hey Mrs Robinson (hahaha),
    From what I gathered when I wanted work there, its REALLY hard to get hired there. I went in there in Feb to check out the club, but didn't audition or anything ....Then in June, I wanted to go there again because I heard the money is BANGIN. So I called them about an audition, and they said "Yeah, before you can work at DDSA, you have to work at ____ first and 'move your way up.'" (some shitty ass club they just opened and had no customers yet). Fuckers. I should have gone in person and dazzled them. Thats what I would do if I were you!

    The Manville one? I bet-it's The former Frank's Chicken house. Blech. Or poss the Toms River one-my first club, BTW, back in the day.

    I think there was a thread about DDSA closing.
