I'm new to the club, but it doesn't take a genius to figure out that the dancers are being completely robbed of their money. That's more than 60:40/club:dancer ratio.
Now, the owner, who only comes in once every few months, happened to come in the second night I was working, and I chatted with him for a long time without knowing he was the owner (you know just general chit chat). He has been asking to take me to dinner, and I'm weary of crossing that line even if it's already been established that it's a casual sort of thing. But I'm willing to cross that line if I can talk business with him and change the earnings ratio for ALL the dancers.
I'm just curious what your take is on this.
Is it fair for me to take advantage of the situation and bring it up? If so, how would you approach it?
