    Default Tipping the VIP Host?

    I just started working at an upscale club a couple weeks ago, and have been to VIP several times since I started. I found the customers myself every time. I know that the VIP hosts get paid by the club, and tipping them isn't required. I don't think that all the girls tip them, although I know that some do. It isn't always required for the customers to buy a bottle in VIP, and I know that the one time that one of my customers did buy a bottle, he tipped the host. But other than that one time, the host's only job has pretty much been to come in and let us know when the time is up......and she has "forgotten" every single time. Am I reading too much into this to think that this was deliberate because I didn't tip? Am I supposed to also tip the host when the customer has already tipped her? Do you tip before, or afterwards? (And if it's after, what am I tipping the host for if she didn't keep track of my time, help me find the customer, or bring us a bottle?) I know there have been threads on this already (which I have read), but I didn't find any that addressed this specific question.

    I don't tip them. Usually when I see girls tip, it's because they have done them a favor or are "extras" girls.

    It really depends on the club. In some, if you don't tip, the hosts will fuck with your money. In others, as long as you tip when credit is due, it's all gravy. Try giving the girl a small tip next time you're going to VIP and ask her to come in when the half/hour is up. If she shows up on time, take it as a sign that she expects a tip regardless. If she still forgets about you, she's just a useless host, so start setting timers on your phone so you don't get stuck in VIP for longer than you're being paid for.

    I think Shanna D is onto it, give her the host the opportunity to work for you first with the small tip upfront and if she doesn't; then start handling it the way DesuV suggests.

    Tipping staff is not sommon in Aus but I tend to encourage my custies to do so or I leave my drink change for the girls regularly. Try and manintain good relations with the staff if you can- you never know!
