    Default would you tell on a manager?

    I have a situation that I'm wondering about. Here's some information. We have two owners. We also have managers that ocassionally act as champagne hosts when the dancer do champagne courts. They expect tips, and usually that's $20 per court (it costs $400 and the girl keeps $200). Most of the time we get the customers to cover the tip so we don't have to out of our own pocket.

    Okay.....
    tonight was a great night. This guy brought three of us in there all night. We each made pretty good money (over $1000 each). When the guy signed the receipt, one dancer in particular pushed him to tip the manager, and she got him $500 for the night.

    At the end of the night, he went on about how great that one girl was for hooking him up and then put us two on the spot for not helping him with it. We felt like he was being way greedy since he basically got a bigger tip than normal (should have been about $100 per girl) and just taking advantage of us two who did not push for the tip. And side note: she and I would have each said something if the other girl had not, but she took over.

    I didn't tip anything yet since I still have "funny money". Part of me just wants to tip him like $50 so he will get off my back and not feel any resentment towards me. The other dancer that he's annoyed at wants to go to the manager and tell on him for taking advantage of us and his position as a champagne host (many other club employees would be thrilled to have that job). I'm not sure. I can be pretty passive. I prefer to pay the money and not make trouble with my manager, but on the other hand, I see her point about it being very unfair. I would imagine the owner would be unhappy if he knew that the manager was doing that, but I'm not sure. I might be making a big deal over money which isn't that much in the grand scheme of things.

    Sounds like it was the other dancer who took control. Why tell the owner ? The other dancer pushed the customer to tip the manager a hefty tip. The manager did not ask for that much money, it just happened. I'll bet he'll want her in the champagne court again. (the manager).

    Sounds like you had a customer with money to burn, had fun, and tipped well. Then again..... If this is against club policy, (tipping $500 to the manager, which btw is crazy)! Then i would do something with the owners. If it's cool and a man with bucks wants to tip out that much, i don't see a problem. Owners may not care for such a huge tip with a dancer pushing a customer to give it to a manager.
    You just won't know untill you at least speak with the owners about it, see if it's cool. I would think not, thats kind of high, and this customer may search out a cheaper club....He spent alot of money on that manager.
    Just my thoughts on this, and if you can stay out of champagne rooms with this one dancer, just be busy.

    It's not the $500 tip that I have a problem with. it's that the manager is asking for MORE from us dancers that didn't push it. That I have a problem with. I guess I didn't make that clear. The manager is asking the two of us for money as his tip once he cashes out our funny money.

    the tip was from the custie - why should the girls tip to match it? Simple basic tip is what I would do I mean even an agent makes only ten to fifteen percent that would more than enough.

    Never explain yourself to anyone, because the person who likes you doesn't need it and the person that dislikes you won't believe it.

    Emily, I used to work at Signatures. Is the manager your talking about about named ***ron( didn't wanna say his entire name, but If it is then you know who I'm talking about. He has done that kind of stuff before. He is so not to trust. He's very greedy and is out to make his buck and yours if your not careful. He gets paid a salary too!!!!!!! If I were you I won't tell someone because knowing that place they really won't do anything, but I'd just tell him no and be firm about it. One time a guy tipped me $1000 extra not includng my actual champagne court money. He also tipped ***ron as well. Granted his tip was not as much as mine, so he thought that he deserved half of my tip. I looked at him and said you must be crazy, and told him NO!!!!!!!!!!! So he really is that way.
