    Default My Boss Tripled the Number of Dancers

    I work in a very small club in France, usually with between 8 and 12 dancers. It's closed at the moment for refurbishing and rebranding, but my boss just put the new website up, and now we're having 30 dancers and a male stripper too!
    We don't have enough clients for that many girls! I'm crapping myself about it. I used to make a killing in there because we were constantly busy, but its gonna be really bloody hard to get customers if there's that much competition :S
    I have a meeting with my bosses tonight thankfully, so I can express my concerns, but I really think he's making some bad decisions for the club.

    ouch. that sucks. i hate working when there are a million girls there too.

    however, its best to talk to him. because on my clubs website, it says we have 60 girls. but its not like all 60 work every night. maybe 40 on a saturday night (which still sucks). but never all 60 at once. maybe the website says that because you have 30 total girls that work there-- not that they all work frequently, or in the same night.

    Is your club open in the day & night? If not, is. it possible your boss plans to do so?

    Try to stick it out for a bit. Let your boss know your concerns but don't jump the gun & become hateful about the situation. See how it goes for a bit. Track your earnings so you have proof before complaining once the changes do occur.
    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.

    Only open at night. I 've been there a couple of years now (one of the only 2 girls that have been there that long) and the bosses are friends. I just feel they're getting ahead of themselves - this isn't some big Parisian club. Sometimes we only have a couple of tables of guys, I've never seen it busy enough to need even 20 girls, let alone 30!
    Although he pays us €25 a night each, so if he sees there's too many girls maybe he'll cut a few. Unless he stops paying us the €25.... Would I have grounds to complain if he did that? It used to be €50 then he halved it and we didn't do anything about it, but if he cuts it completely its gonna make a big difference per month.

    you get PAID to come in? lucky you!

    I would wait to go back to work and see if there actually are 30 girls. some clubs advertise that there's x amount of girls to make it seem like a better club. there's a SC near me that always has a sign up that says "10 HOT new girls" except that sign has been there for like a year now.

    if there really ARE 30 girls when you go back, I would first try to make money anyway and if it's really affecting your money I would complain nonstop until the manager does something about it

    It's more likely that the website just says that in the hopes of drumming up some additional business.
    My old club used to claim 30 girls every night! But some nights we'd have, like 6. LOL.

    I hope you're right, but at the same time, knowing my boss, he probably has hired 30 girls. At the end of our last season he doubled the prices. It was ridiculous - at the time when it was getting most difficult to sell dances and he puts the prices up so its near impossible! Eek! Bloody optimist!!

    WHY WHY WHY do managers always think that jacking up the prices for things will make the business better? expensive does not translate to upscale!!!!!

    I seriously have not met ONE manager that knows how to properly promote a strip club. it makes me sooo angry. from the bullshit two-for-one dances to the stupid raffles to the contests to the poor excuses for "events". I may not have been in the industry for a long time but I've been around to a LOT of strip clubs and have yet to see one successful promotion.

    I think the dancers could come up with better ideas to advertise than the management. they have no idea what the customers like.

    I like working with lots of girls, & get irritated when I have to work with less than 20; I don't really like going on stage. I make all my money on the floor selling dances or conversation. Having to do stage just takes time away from that.

    Why is there a male stripper at a club?

    To appeal to hen parties. We've had a few hen parties in before, and now if they make a reservation they'll bring in a male stripper. No idea who it is, ut I can't wait to see!

    I'd stay there if I was you. It's a good thing to have lots of girls because that equals lots of variety. Thus leading to more customers. The male stripper was smart, I think. It brings in horny woman for men and we all know when woman are drinking and horny they like women too. Your club may have an array of male and female customers all getting dances. It could turn out pretty nice. Just another way to look at it

    Well I have to stay, its the only club of its kind in France (ski resort strip club).
    I'm not sure if an increase in female customers would have a positive or negative impact. On valentines day we often get single women wandering in and chatting up our customers (and pften leaving with them) which I find rude.
    Also a lot of our customers are old champagne drinking businessmen that dn't want a rowdy atmosphere. I hope they give the hen parties tables further away from the quieter customers (also not sure if the men would want to see a male stripper!!)
