I was just wondering, how much dose everyone pay the club? House fees and dance fees? My club just added a new stage fee which is Sun-Thurs days is $5 night is $10. Fri & Sat days are $10 and nights are $20 weather we get a dance or not.
1 song $20 pay (to club) $10
2 songs $30 pay $15(keep)15
3 songs $40 pay $15 25
4 songs $50 pay $20 30
5 songs $60 pay $25 35
But we have a special 4 songs $40 (btw our songs are cut to 1:20) that seems to be the only thing people will buy and if we stay for 5 songs (which happens on accident since the songs are so short) thats another $20 from the customer, and the whole 5 songs cost the customer $60 I pay $25 and keep $35. Now at the end of the night we pay the stage fee plus $2 per set to the bar/club and $2.50 per set to the DJ. The per set means if I do
1 song I pay the $2(club) and $2.50(DJ)
2 songs " "
3 " "
4 " "
After 4 songs it starts over and you have to pay for the 5th song like it was one song so 5 songs you pay $4 club and $5 DJ. So really I try to never do one song since it really only makes you $5. Then after all that they try to guilt trip us into tipping the bartender and the security and sometimes the managers expect a tip too.
Sorry it is confusing I hope I explained it well enough to get some feedback it seems like I pay out alot? Oh and on top of all that if I am late it is $10 per hour and same $10 per hour to leave early, the shifts are 12 pm to 8pm and
8 pm to 4am. It dosen't matter if there is not one customer all day we have to stay and pay the stage fee, (well some managers are going easier on us and waiting till we get a dance and I do mean a dance).
Dose this sound expensive to anyone else?
One more question my manager has a mandatory meeting once a month that we are fined $50 if we are not exactly on time or basically we have to be early. And guess when the meeting is?....anybody?.... thats right its held on Saturday at 11:00am and it is at least an hour (usually girls get to complain about sometimes rediculous things the whole time (example "I have a problem with some of the girls, we have girls that are not beautiful." It takes the manager like 15 min to explain how different people have different taste, so some men are going to be attracted to different looking girls. Wow I woke up early for this? Sorry I thought it was a big waste of time and you loose sleep over this. Is this even legal? Anything I can do? I would change clubs but I can't seem to find one thats hiring right now.
