I am seriously considering quitting my club. Calling up the booking agent, and telling her that although i LOVE the club, I refuse to work there until the DJ is gone.
This guy is a DOUCHE.
He's a TERRIBLE DJ. Bad voice, BEATBOXES OVER DANCERS MUSIC BAAAAADLY....Advertises his rap "band" over the mic, doesn't think about hte rotation, and ends up screwing all of our money, because he can't keep a crowd at the rack...
And he abuses his DJ power. He sits in the dressing room ALL THE TIME. I don't want to pay a perv to watch me wipe my ass. Just. No.
And then tongiht? HE SPENDS HALF MY FIRST STAGE SET BADGERING THE CROWD INTO BUYING A DANCE FROM HIS FAVORITE, WHO IS GETTING OFFSTAGE BEFORE ME!!!!! HE H AS HER STAY ONSTAGE WHILE I"M TRYING TO GIVE HIM THE HINT BY CLEANING THE POLE, DANCING, ETC. Completely pulls the momentum a way from me, even after the poor fucker takes her for a pity dance.
Just No. Don't fuck with my money. Particularly since with PDX liqour laws, THAT STAGE IS MY ONLY OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE MONEY.
He bitches to dancers about how he "barely makes minimum wage on their tips" even as THEY TAKE HOME LESS THAN MINIMUM WAGE due to a bad crowd!
He's been fired from here before apparently, but for some reason they took him back. EVERY NIGHT i go in i hear a litany of complaint about him FROM THE CUSTOMERS "Wont he shut up already? I'm here for you!" "He must love the sound of his own voice." etc.
Like WTF? I haven't been at this club ALL that long, but i have brought in a number of spendy regulars who DO bring in money to hte club, and i AM one of hte better/more popular performers. Why should I put upwith being traeted like this at a local divey bar. THe money isn't worth it. And he's KILLING my money. And the other girls as well.
"Hi, this is Aria... I wanted to give you a heads up... I can't take any of my scheduled shifts, I love hte club, but there is NO way I'm coming back until Gxxxxxxxx leaves. He ......"
I can taste the words in my mouth already. Eve if htey DONT fire him, at least i will have stood up for myself. I'm still kicking myself for not slamming a stilletto up his ass when he kept plugging Kxxxx through my set.
