    Default Club gives me slow shifts b/c I'm black!

    I just quit at Scores Baltimore. They had me working 40 hours a week, mostly shitty day shifts. When I was hired, the manager told me that he had too many black dancers (there are only 7 black dancers out of the 60 girls that work there) and that the only way I could work was if I also did days. He promised me that I could transition into nights after a month. I've been there for a month and a half, and I've seen them hire 5 or 6 white girls who get to work whenever they want! I just walked out in the middle of my shift today when I found out that they planned to keep me on dayshift permanantly.

    How did you find out they planned to keep you on dayshift permanently?

    Sometimes you just end up with managers who are jerks. Trust me, we've all been there. Walking out is probably the best thing you can do - let someone else deal with it. If you feel that it really is a issue of race (i.e. they can't argue that you aren't in shape for night shift) then you could report it to the Department of Labor.
    Don't you ever sleep?
    Not at night...that's when the stars have rather better things to do. They're coming out, shining, that sort of thing.

    It's definitely a racial issue. One of the manager outright told me that he's restricting my schedule because I'm black. I know I'm in good enough shape for the night shift (My measurements are 38-25-35, and I always bank when they do let me work nights! In fact, I sold the most dances the last few nights that I worked)

    I doubt that reporting it would help. I'm just going to look for another place to work.

    Good for you. I think that's the best thing to do. Why bring in money for someone like that, ya know? Best wishes to you in finding the right club for you.

    I wish stripping wasn't such a taboo occupation. Any other job... they would have gotten their ass slapped with a lawsuit real quick!

    Unfortunately in alot of states, dancers are not considered employees, but independent contractors. When you are an IC, no labor laws are applicable to you. They are only valid for "employees" meaning if you are on a payroll of some sort.

    Some states do it, some states don't. Here in AZ we are IC's.....


    PS Racism is BULLSHIT though.

    My advice: Go back there, and ask to speak to your manager. Kick him in the balls (extra points if you have point toed shoes). And walk out again.

    Or cut their brakes.
    Lead me not into temptation. I can find it myself.

    That sucks ass!! Whatever girl, you're better off at a club that will treat you decent anyway. If they're being like that, they're not the kinda club you should be at - you can do better!

    If they are trying to limit her work hours then she can report it to the DOL. A lot of dancers forget that just because the club wants to say you are an Independent Contractor doesn't mean that you are one. Unless someone stands up to that club dancers are going to keep getting the shaft over there. She could report it to the DOL and potentially kill two birds with one stone. There's nothing wrong with trying.

    Oh baby that's not your problem - that's THEIR problem. They just missed out on some fine chocolate AND stiffed their customers into having a lame choice of women. They're losing out. Step and find a new club and bank there. You were obviously way too hot for them that they had to keep you undercover on days shift that long.

    May not be too much comfort as you're in America but clubs in Scandinavia specifically request black only dancers from agencies in the UK as black girls are adored over there!

    they did the same thing to me, but im white. Shitty day shifts, and im not fat or ugle, no tattoos, i always sold rooms everything. I think what it is is because if you are hired for dayshift from the start, the dayshift manager kinda has her claws into you, and complains and bitches if they tell a "day girl" she can work nights. Same reason why I quit

    Awwww hugs girl. Someone seriously needs a good kick up in his man business! For real just go back and slap him around some, because no one needs that kind of racist bullshit.
