    Default Going from BYOB to a juice bar

    I'm going today to check out a new club in OK that is about to open back up but they aren't allowed to have a liquor license so instead, it's a no-contact fully nude juice bar now. I've read threads on how juice bars make their money and the customers they bring in and tbh I'm a little worried because they all may be young/broke.
    My current club isn't doing well at all, our customer base has been dropping off since we went BYOB. Not to mention the problems we're having with managers turning a blind eye to the high amount of extras, no rules being enforced at all, and pretty much no security at all. It's probably the dingiest, beat-down strip club for miles around but I still make decent money there because of the ability to upsell to a VIP room and the good stage tipping. I've been there for almost three years and know everyone.
    This new club is nicer on the inside, stricter rules, nipple paint must be worn, better security, nice stage set ups and it was well known when it was open as an alcohol-serving topless bar. The only thing I'm worried about is that it's a 45 minute commute for me to get to said new club. So I'm going to be shelling out gas money quite a bit, as well as the percentage they take for house fee, the set dj fee, etc etc. I'm kind of afraid to go out of state to work alone (I'm night blind, I can't drive in the dark well) so I may try to find someone to travel with me. I would be working less though because out of town dancers are only required to work one weekday (so I could cut down from five days a week to possibly three or four). Also, full back bottoms and nipple paint/pasties PLUS no contact whatsoever is really new to me, I've never worked somewhere where one way contact wasn't at least allowed during the dances. How do I give a lap dance if I can't touch the customers at all? I'm hoping I don't get fired if someone touches me without my permission because I was told they would be enforcing everything strictly.

    Here is my opinion on juice bars. Unless you know for a fact that the juice bar you're going to try out is a popular and decent place to work, I would steer clear. Juice bars are good for beginners, but veteran dancers usually don't bother if they have ever worked anywhere else. It's just not worth it. Now, I suppose it depends on where you're located, but where I live, juice bars are 18+. Meaning 75% of clientele are young boys spending their allowance. The clubs are high hustle, very competitive. However, again, this depends on your club, but I danced at multiple juice bars when I first started and had similar experiences with each one. If your club is anything like the ones I've worked at, it just wouldn't be worth the commute.

    Uhm... you do understand that this makes no sense, right? If a customer breaks the rules, you shouldn't be punished!

    Why do you want to work in strangely formatted club, that is out of state, in a place where you feel uncomfortable driving due to your vision, only to be scared that you'll get in trouble if some dude gets out of line???



    As for dancing there... watch what the other girls do and follow suit.

    I was hoping that it would be helpful to have another option in the back of my pocket other than the alcohol serving topless club in my town because they are overrun with girls atm. Maybe after this juice bar opens up things will become more evenly dispersed or something because they are owned by the same people. If it's terrible I could always attempt to work at Dragon, the topless bar up there. I was just wondering if anyone had any experience working juice bars or no-contact clubs and if there were any tips to make things easier with customers because I've never done the no-contact hustle.

    The club I'm at currently is doing very very poorly and I'm honestly just trying to get out before things fall apart there. The issue I was worried about with the customer would be one of 'he said she said' because I was told rule-breakers were to be fired immediately by the new manager that offered me the job and I'm not sure if there are cameras in the dance areas.
    There aren't any economically sound options in my area unless I travel 45 minutes or more out of my way because I live in North Texas. I know a lot of the girls that they asked to work for them as well, so hopefully it wouldn't be too hard to get someone who will carpool. I was hoping that talking to the manager today would take care of most of my questions, but I think the main reason that I'm so worried is I'm coming from a very notorious extras club and the management know this and I'm worried I'm going to mess up some minuscule way and get fired for it. And the fact that I don't know how to give a no-contact lapdance because I've only ever worked in contact clubs. So I'm out of my comfort zone. :/
    I'm sorry if the previous post didn't make sense, I'm just scrambling to make a decision and it's stressing me.

    Dragon West in Lawton. The juice bar I'm thinking about working at is the old Platinum.

    I wouldn't worry about that kind of thing if I were you. It sounds like you're certainly not the type to do extras, and the management will realize that. They have been working in this industry for a number of years, and have no doubt dealt with extras girls in the past. The fact of the matter is that they are easy to pick out, and if you aren't one of them, you have nothing to worry about. Even if you did have a confrontation, a club where management will not give a dancer a chance to explain themselves is not a club worth working at. Relax, and focus on learning the ropes of your new club.

    Sorry for my ignorance, but what's the difference between BOYB and a juice bar? Are you not allowed to have any alcohol in the latter?

    ^BYOB just doesn't sell any alcohol, whereas juice bars you can not have alcohol at all.
