    Default Call from my Regular - Club has been Bought

    I get a frantic call from my regular, but I missed it and I got a text message asking me to call him ASAP. I call and he tells me that my club has been sold. It was announced at the bar tonight, and the club will be closed for three weeks, starting Sunday, for remodeling. All the dancers will be 'interviewed' by the new owner who owns a club further down the state in West Virginia. Our jobs are up in the air. We will not be able to work for three weeks. I was also told I need to evacuate my locker as of tomorrow. I'm out of state until after New Years.

    I'm scared. I love this club. I'm afraid management is going to go downhill. I'm afraid the rules will change, or even become more lax, that shit is going to hit the fan. I'm terrified I won't get my job back. I have never caused the club trouble but the new owner doesn't know that. I am kind of panicking.

    I want to look at the reviews for the other club this guy owns, but SCL is down. This is so sudden. What am I going to do about income? I will work at my home club while I'm home visiting the parents but I'm afraid I won't make enough money for rent due on the 9th next month. I have some stuff in savings but I'm trying not to dip into that because taxes are coming up.

    I'm so scared. Three weeks is a long time when it comes to things like this.

    Fuuuuuck. Keep us posted on what happens.

    I was going to tell you that you are thinking worst-case scenario... and then... It's hard not to when you have to prepare financially. Pack away some cash at your old club.

    I am sorry about that Strawberry.

    Where is the new owner's club at? I have lived in West Virginia most of my life? I know how most of the clubs in Parkersburg are like. Also, I know about the clubs in Beckley from living there also.

    If you want you can PM with this information, if you do not want to post it.

    There must be something in the water... my husband text me last night to let me know his club has officially been sold; now they're corporate. Apparently, they're having a meeting in a few day to let everyone know things won't change This will leave one upscale club in Denver that isn't owned by PT's... hopefully, he can work there. If not, we have enough money to stay afloat for a couple of months, but I'm going to give myself an ulcer if it comes to that.

    Good luck Strawberry, you're not alone.

    Well, I found out some more details. The club is now owned by some guy in Martinsburg, WV. He owns Legz.



    Even has "New Morgantown location" in the clubs dropdown. SCL still isn't up. Anyone know anything about this club?

    Looking at the club, I'm fairly impressed. They seem really on the ball, but only time will tell. I still can't get into SCL, but a generous members of SW has offered to look at TUSCL for me, since I'm not a paid member to that site.

    I'm going to work at my home club tonight. What's things been like for you guys recently?

    Nothing too exciting... so far, the "man" has laid low. I'm sure they're going through the books, seeing how the club is currently run and where they can cut corners/ maximize profits. Husband's holding on as long as the gettings good... the good thing is, he's not in management or any salaried position so I'm sure his chances of being laid off or run off is lower. While we wait and see, he's looking at other options.

    sounds like him and i work at the same place

    Yeah Jim has repeatedly told me that nothing is going to change blah blah blah.

    but let me tell you a little story about the PT's corporation: may 2006 i was working at PT's Sports as a DJ, the new smoking ban was going to kill our business (which was a little slow to begin with) 3 head directors come to the club for a big all staff meeting, tell us they are going to do a remodel job, all of us will have a job somewhere temporarily, then when the club reopens we will come reapply. I get transferred to diamond cabaret, and after driving by my old club a few times, doesnt look like there is a whole lot of remodeling going on. After a few months theres a big sign in front of the building that says "COMING SOON! CRYSTALS ADULT STORE!" they flat out lied to us. Be VERY wary about what you believe from the mouth of PT's. Oh and tell your husband the meeting is weds at 10am (yeah the day after christmas)

    Are there no other clubs in your area? While the changes happen and you decide what you want to do, you'll still need an income. I say work at another club close to you, even if it's not your ideal club. When you find out what's going on with your current club, and if you can handle the changes or not, you can make a decision regarding a permanent club move.

    My old club had a change in ownership/management that fucked it over. Initially, it wasn't a big deal, because the club was closed for a month, then most of the same girls, waitresses, bartenders, and djs came back. And some management was the same. After the owner started changing more parts of the club and replacing management, I had to leave. But the new owners may like the success of your club and not want to replace the 'team', ya know?

    The other club in town is Lady Godiva's, or Excalibur as they now call it. I think Lena worked there a while back. I am not in town right now, so they probably already hired some girls from my club, plus I'm not at all thrilled with how they handle security related to the dancer. I'm working at my old club, but I just got back from work with seventy dollars in hand. I'm not pleased.
    I work saturday though.

    I learned that a girl who I used to work with (and who used to post here) worked at the Legz in martinsburg and spoke highly of it. It brightens my spirit a bit.
