    Thumbs down Rant: Change?!!!

    The other night I was giving a guy (probably late 20's) a table dance. It was kinda dead, but it was one of those nights when the tipping is unusually good. Anyways, I finish the dance and the guy pulls out a $5 and was like... "I don't have anything smaller...do you have change?" And I was like, "what?" I thought I didn't hear him right. And he says, "Change. Give me four back." And I just stood there for a second, dumbfounded. Then I just turned and walked away. I don't like freaking out on custies, cause even if I'm 100% in the right, other custies who might see it won't know the situation and probably think I'm some crazy bitch and are less likely to buy. And I knew I couldn't say shit to this guy without absolutely losing it. I've had plenty of guys tips $1 for dances, which sucks....but I've never had a guy ask for change so he could tip a buck.

    So I just told the other girls about it, and he probably had a rather miserable time of it. I heard that a few other girls tried him out and got the same thing. And those girls didn't exactly keep quiet about it; they had no problem telling him off. And he stayed for the whole night, kept trying to get chicks to dance for him, and no one would do it.

    Then I heard he tried to bargain with the bartender about how much to pay for a private dance; we charge $25, he was trying to buy it for $10, and told the bartender, "If you help me out, I'll throw an extra buck in there for you."

    I was like, wtf?

    Who does that?

    Wow. That is beyond ridiculous. At least the other girls were telling him off--it would be awful if he got away with this cheapskate behavior and was given the impression that it was okay!

    Yes, some guys are asses. When this has happened to me I simply point to the cashier window or bar tender or whatever and tell him that is where he can get change for his large bills.

    Either that or take his $5 and give him a $1 and walk away. When he complains say something like "That is your change. There is a $3 transaction fee, just like at a bank."

    LMAO.

    That's really shitty, but also kind of funny at the same time. I think you did the right thing by not freaking out him. Sometimes the best thing to put a guy in his place is to just turn around and walk away without saying a thing.

    A buck to lower the price? A buck... Really, should be more than what he wanted the discount to be. What does he think we are? Wait, we know what he thinks... Douche... Wanna bet if he DID get an LD, he would think tip was included and he was buying the right to do whatever he wants.

    I wish I bitched out similarly cheap guys. You know, the ones who say they gotta go get singles. One time I was tryin to get a guy to buy an LD, he asked if it would cost him more than $10. An other guy was just at an ATM, I asked him if he wanted to buy one. Apparently he only took out $20 and was like "I need to take out an extra $20?" ($40 at our club.) Manager came to my rescue and said "Plus tip." He planned on tipping a total of $20 for the whole night, between all the dancers... wow...
    Lead me not into temptation. I can find it myself.

    Oh man, I've actually had two or threee extremely intoxicated ASSHOLES try to hand me actual CHANGE - as in, coins!

    One of them had questionable mental capacity but I couldnt escape him b/c he was part of the large bachelor party group I was dancing for, so I kept nicely but firmly pushing his hand back when he held out fucking nickels and pennies and saying, "NO I don't WANT that." Finally I lost my temper with him on the sixth or seventh try and told the guys to kick him out or keep him away from me.

    Some customers can be SO brain dead, it astounds me. I would NEVER consider doing that (or asking a dancer for change back) if I went to a SC!!

    This reminds me of the time a guy took back his dollar from my stage. I mean WTF? I told him off while I was on stage lol (oops don't recommend that). I just saw another guy do this to another girl a couple days ago, and thank god I was sober because even sober my temper went crazy.

    That guy obviously had his mind set on tipping a dollar for a lapdance, and no one was going to change his mind. What a cheap ass. In that situation, I usually tell them off and embarass them for being such a cheap bastard. If I'm in a good mood and I'm really trying to make money though, I just sweetly suggest to them what a good tip WOULD be.

    I don't like to let the guys know they made me upset. They think it's funny. I would just tell all the girls (like when we line up before feature) not to go to his table for he is a cheapskate, and I tell the cocktail waitress, so she can give her better service to someone that tips well, and not waste her time on him. I mean not neglect him, but not bend over backwards for him. It doesn't take long for the cheap SOB to be all alone. Poor, poor lonely man.

    Maybe he'll learn the errors of his ways too, if the strippers or the other club staff don't give him there best. But still, dont ignore him, because he obviously is still paying for stuff. I wouldn't tell him off, personally i'd leave it to the others so it doesn't make me look bad. Heehee, i know its mean, but who knows. If and when (not saying he would) he does change he might remember you not taking it out on him.

    It's not worth the effort and energy of getting upset. When customers ask for change (or do/say anything else that's equally obnoxious), I just laugh and walk away.

    A dollar is not going to make or break my night...but allowing someone to bring my mood down will.

    if this happens again, say "OK" take the $5, look in your bag, say "oops I don't have any change, I guess I'll just have to dance for you some more!" *immediately start dancing* after about 30 seconds, say "thanks sweetheart! I hope you pick me to dance for you again later" then walk away.

    what a cheap-ass!!!

    maybe say something like: "oh, you must not go to strip clubs very often *giggle* nobody tips one dollar"

    it may touch his ego and get him to loosen his grip on the cash.

    As a side note, it wasn't until I joined SW that I realized that tipping after a LD was customary. I mean I work in a no-contact nude club, so in my opinion, $20 for a 3.5 minute song is already a steep price. So I don't really expect tips. That's just me, though...

    I've helped plenty of guys get $1 bills when they want to tip me something less than their higher bills. I'm just thankful that they want to tip me at all! My whole club doesn't generally expect tips after dances (in other words, I'm not the only one who feels this way).

    I think she's talking about tableside dances, not tipping after a private dance. Around here, guys are supposed to tip $3-$5 for that anyway (if they are lucky enough to get you to do it at all), so him asking for change was beyond tacky.

    You have to believe you are worth large tips. They should be grateful that you are even talking to them in the first place, let alone dancing and being nice. No tip is too extravagant for the service you are providing! You must believe that.

    This actually gave me the idea of trading singles with customers. Unfortunately they are stingy shitheads, and are only going to tip singles. VERY few big spenders there.

    But I don't like my manager knowing how much I make so I don't like trading in singles. Plus I charge $1 but I'll say in a cute voice "There's a one dollar transaction fee, but it comes with a tit shot," flash them quickly, then give em back their money sans a dollar. If I ever get a $50 or $100 I'll probably go as far as $5 or $10.
    Lead me not into temptation. I can find it myself.

    at clubs where stage is a substancial source of income I will sometimes trade ones for bigger bills with custies sitting stageside, I havn't done it lately though, and when i do its mostly just to get rid of my ones, but now its occured to me this might be a good thing to do to kill time if i am up on stage next in a song or two...this I can tease them into tipping me more when I'm up "sweetie, I know you've got a stack of ones, I just gave them to you, remember...."
