    Mind Blowing Club not cashing in funny money

    So they club I am at now has a serious problem with "running out of money" to pay the dancers their cut of the funny money. I have worked at places before that put a hold on funny money etc, but this place doesnt put a hold on it, it is just cash it in if htey have money. There are girls here who have at times had to wait a month to get their money! One girl was crying yesterday because she made like a grand in funny money but only like 2 $ in regular money and didnt have enough money to pay for parking !! When the girls bitch about it to management, management responds with disrespectful comments.

    The thing that makes this even more annoying is the employees constantly flashing cash around everywhere. The VIP manager will have a stack, the door gusy will be transferring stacks of cash around, the club will be packed iwth ppl buying drinks, buying rooms that the club takes half of-- the club obviously has enough money to pay the girls what they earned. yet at the end of the night, some girls end up working for free. and they wont accept funny money for house fees etc. I am only here for another week and I actually turned down a CR tonight with a guy because I didnt want to take any sort of credit payments for fear of leaving the club without being able to cash in my money.

    Has anyone worked at a club that is this ridiculous about cashing in funny money?! Its fucking ridiculous! and extremely unprofessional! This has to be illegal or something...
    The best thing i have heard in a strip club to date:
    customer: we should get married right now! we should get a shotgun marriage!
    me: uhh... i think you are misunderstanding what a shotgun marriage means. A shotgun marriage means you knock me up and my daddy shows up at your door with a gun and forces you to marry me and raise the baby. You mean elope.
    customer: hmm... nah actually i will take the shotgun marriage. At least then we would be having sex.

    since every funny money or cr had to be paid for by a customer the club should have the money and should pay every night unless a contract was involved stating funny money conditions that u signed when started working. i would suggest getting financial or legal advice. its better to work with a professional in the field and it may encourage the club to pay up. if it still doesnt happen, its time to find a new club

    I worked at a club once where this happened all the time. The club only opens up with a certain amount of cash in the register, and if a lot of people pay with cards, then they just don't have the cash on hand to change out all the funny money. It wasn't really a big deal for me, because the dancers and staff were really understanding and would lend you whatever you needed when it happened.

    Has anyone ever said anything to the owners about this? It's possible that they just don't know how inconvenient it is for the girls. Maybe if someone tells them, they will start keeping more cash around. At the very least, they could let the girls know in advance that things like this happen sometimes, and they should bring cab money or whatever with them when they come to work.

    Is there a contract saying you would have to wait for your money? If not they to me are withholding your money from you.. I would look at legal advice for this cause since your not a employee they are withholding your money with very small chance of getting it back, but also it makes it so the girls that can't stay in the area don't get paid. I know of two strippers that travel everyday and can't stay to wait and need the money they worked for that night.

    My club sucks about this and I'm constantly broke because of
    it. I'm making about two thirds of my income right now from one customer who only pays with a CC... So every week I get about 2-3 grand in funny money that takes forever to cash.

    That's ridiculous that your club won't let you pay out in funny money... that's the easiest way to get rid of it. And trading it with other girls for cash so they can pay out with it. I would go above the manager to the owner or whoever is at the very top of management... the owner at my club is the only one who is actually really concerned about me being able to cash out my funny money, and he's the only one who can write me a check for it (although you do have to
    sign a tax form when they do that, 10-99 or something, don't ask me about taxes).

    well, obviously, quitting sends the strongest message to management. but if you are going to stick it out for another week, i would absolutely decline anyone with a credit card. good luck. that is some bullshit, i've never heard of that.

    Worked for a club like this but they would let you use the chips for house fees. It is still a sort if 'diminishing returns' system that does not complet dancers to have the incentive to continue wanting to do rooms for high dollar amounts if they can only pay with credit card.

    One guy in particular used his DEBIT card, and yet I had to wait weeks (as in plural) to get my money. It sort of becomes a system of paying a tax on what you earned. A very high one! Why tip out with money you earned a week ago (in cash or funny money) when you may or may not walk out with much in actual cash?

    After a few days, I refused to actually WORK while at work and instead waited until a busy weekend night at the end of the line to get paid cash from the other girls' dance fees. I may not have done that over 1 or 200 bucks, but altogether, I was owed about $1200 or $1300, plus another $400 from a champagne room done the next day!

    Always go to the head manager about these issues, that's the only thing I can recommend. And even do the silent protest, like I did, refusing to work when you come in/show up at the end of the night on a weekend, and just make sure you get your money little by little!

    the owner is aware of the problem... he is the one who will tell girls to go find another club where they can make the same money if they dont like the system. and teh club definitely has enough cash total to pay out the dancers... the place is freaking packed! its shitty. i just wont accept fake money this week... i guess that will be my protest since they take a cut of the fake money, and a large cut off of any stuff that requires a credit to buy (half the CRs). Not working this week is not an option though... i want to make sure i have some money for when i move!

    Hope it works out for you, Athena! Try and pre-qualify the guys who want to use credit or debit and see how much they are willing to pull out of the atm ahead of time if they cannot do the total amount.

    Athena and I work at the same club, and this problem has been going on for months. I did ask the manager about it, and it's due to the fact that guys have less cash and are paying on cards more. In regards to the bar/door money, that isn't available until an hour or two after the club closes because they have to count everything and make sure the paperwork is correct, etc. I don't know who hasn't gotten their money in over a month, but on Saturday when I had about 600 in funny money I put it in an envelope in the office and was able to pick it up the next day.

    It's definitely a pain in the ass, and you can't really talk to the owner about it because he's not understanding at all, and seems like he's bipolar or something.

    This happens at my club all the time. I almost always have to wait at LEAST a day, often 2 or 3 before I can change it in. The last time (was having a particularly bad week) the manager actually changed out 60 bucks of it with his own money for me because I was flat broke. I had like 300 in funny money and 0 to my name.

    ^^oh they are. pittsburgh seems to be a rough city to be a dancer in regards to club management and customer expectations... like i said im moving south very shortly. My original post was more of a rant and a wtf post... we give so much to these clubs, especially this club (a half hr vip is 175, we only keep 90 and have to demand a tip, simiar rates for the hrs. for the LDs we keep 15 out of 25) and i am just shocked by the not paying out on time. It is very unprofessional. I have never worked at a club that wouldnt pay its dancers out by a set time... i have worked at clubs where the set time was a week later, but never one where it was like try to cash it when you can and if they havent run out of money then you will get yours.

    re lilmisssophie: i am hesitant to leave my money in an envelope at the club, even if it is just fake money. to me, this seems sketchy. and on top of my initial negative reaction to the idea, a couple of girls mentioned not to do it; some said money went missing. idk how true these claims are, but i dont like the idea of just leaving my money in the club until they feel like paying it out.

    Fortunately the club is packed on weekends, so it is not difficult to make good money just selling lap dances in cash. most customers by repeat dances, and i have learned to be a lot pushier than i have ever been about recieving tips. I am just shocked because friday was the THIRD time i have seen a girl at the club CRYING because she couldnt get money she earned. And i guess to throw salt on this girls wound, she mentioned it to the LD area manager and he told her she didnt deserve to work there or something like that and should stop bitching because she made the club look bad (again this is according to her-- i didnt see it). I am just stunned by how ridiculous it is!




    oh yea on a side note, if i was to permanently stay in the area, this is the club to work at , which is partly why management are assholes-- they know they are the money making club. I worked at the other main club in the city and it was dirtier and the money was much harder to make (though they did pay out funny munny on time. they had NO atm though ). And in some ways, the managements unwillingness to be nice benifits the place-- as far as i can tell its the cleanest club with private rooms that i have EVER worked in (although it is nude and high mileage). I dont think any girls here suck or fuck for money. The girls at the club are so nice though for the most part, i wish management would treat them with a little bit more respect.

    If I was there and this was common i would stick to cash. Being the ass I am I would tell the others to stay to cash. Maybe after a week or two of hearing girls trying to stay away from funny money they might rethink about giving the girls their money. Not letting them use it to pay their fees.. Now that moronic. But some girls might need it more then me but if they did why would they work there and let custies use credit..

    lol, FUNNY MONEY STRIKE! that would be hilarious-- i dont think ive ever heard of such a thing. the problem seems to be getting worse, so who knows, maybe one day they will all band together and refuse to use funny money until the club comes up with reasonable policies, but i doubt it. I dont think most girls could afford to do that.

    It might make management wake up though... or get everyone fired.

    Hey I would do it.. I think its time to piss off management, I don't like it when people don't give me my money that I'm told that I would make that day.. It messes with my notes for taxes. And yes people might get fired but word travels fast and all they will get are extra girls, druggies with no brain, and girls they wouldn't of hired in the first place, and when that happens some custies would move on somewhere else, taking their money with them.

    Have you tried asking the owner about writing girls checks? Why wo
    they let you pay out with it?

    I hate when customers use credit cards. I usually just don't bring it up as an option unless I'm trying to sell a VIP because they start at $600. If your club has an ATM it should be pretty easy to get most guys to just take it cash for you if you are just quiet about the CC option.

    My club charges the dances a 10% fee to cash funny money, so I pretty much do everything to steer customers away from using a cc.

    atm has a withdrawal limit. i could ask them to keep withdrawing i suppose.

    in my experience though, when most customers make large purchases they typically do it on the credit card. I am not sure what the atm fee at this club is. Customers are retarded about atm fees though... i remember at a club i used to work at it was a 10$ atm fee, but it was easier to convince guys to pay on the credit card when it was marked up 15%. So on 200$ they would rather pay 230$ than $210 for the atm ::shrugs::

    That's really sketchy. You should contact a lawyer and possibly the Better Business Burea or Employment board as well.

    Are any of your clubs going out of business? Scores before and after the Russian mob bought it had this problem then ran into lawsuits because of that. Then when the fuckers gave out the checks, they bounced.

    I know hustler clubs always pay out the night you work and the checks are good.

    This has only happened to me ONCE.
    It was at a club where they put a limit on how much funny money they'll put out (If they can't cash it, they won't let the customers take it)... but I convinced my manager to let this guy take out another 2k (No, he didn't give it all to me. I wish.. it was half to another girl.) and insisted it was fine if I cashed it in the next day... I wanted that money!
