    Default Stage money Question

    Hello ladies..
    Had a question that's been on my mind. Do you think it's rude to 'sweep' the money on the tip rail to the middle of the stage during a set? I've seen girls do this a lot.. they'll be dancing, and guys will throw money on the stage (obviously). When the girls go over to 'interact' with the guys, they sit down, swoop the money out of the way and into the middle of the stage.. this seems to make guys tip more, since it no longer looks like they have money infront of them. Just a thought

    No, as long as it's done with polish I think it looks good.

    Lena is right,
    and correct, they put the money there for you to take it. I have passed money up in the past thinking it would be rude to take it during a stage show, and one guy put the money back in his pocket.

    I keep the 'money taking' as part of the show, however. Crawl over and mouth thank you, and pucker my lips like a kiss (thank you again).
    But i find most guys want to put it in a garter wrapped around my leg. Or hand it to me so they can touch hair...Lol.
    But when it is laid on the side railing, take it! And keep your eyes open for money comin there, it's kinda like a insult i have found if you do not take someones money while it is being offered. You can incorporate the 'money taking' with your routine!

    Speaking as a customer, I have never liked it when the dancer sweeps the money away from me before her stage set is over. It just seems like a blatant request for more money to me (done with polish or not). It makes me LESS likely to put more money down, and it makes me less likely to sit at that dancer's stage in the future.

    Hmm, eight years in clubs and I've never heard of this practice. Very strange. Must be one of those regional things.
    ???

    Come to think of it this is kind of a non-issue at clubs where I've been, because very few of them have had an actual rail around the stage (sometimes a lip on the edge). What generally happens here is that you put your money on the rail (or where the rail WOULD be), and wait for the dancer to come over and give you some attention. One you got what you paid for, she'd take the money and throw it to the back of the stage out of the customer's reach. Even at the non-contact clubs I've frequented it's like this.

    Interesting. If she ignores your money til the end of her show do you feel un acknowledged?

    Typically, towards the end of every song, I will go around and give each customer a little personal attention and a kiss on the cheek, when allowed/appropriate, and (depending on the club and state) take their dollar in my garter or sweep it back onto the stage. If they want more personal attention from me they put another dollar up and towards the end of the second song when I'm half naked they get a little more.

    Some guys seem to like the "power" thing of just throwing money on the stage. Personally, I like to make a show of picking it up and putting it under my garter or thong. If it's just laying on the tip rail, ditto. On the other hand, if he wants to HAND it to me, I let him put it under the garter or sometimes lay it between my boobs as I press them together. It all depends. I don't sweep the money to the center, though. I don't think it's rude -- it's just not good business!!!

    I thank the guys first, and then after a few tips I sweep it aside to a part of the stage I'm not dancing on. It has nothing to do with greed or disrespect, I just dont like having bills that are laid out or thrown on the stage sticking to my sweaty body or my shoes. Anyone else besides me ever slip on a dollar bill before?

    Absolutly not! I have seen other dancers AND customers steal tips. I have also seen then fall onto the floor as well.

    Oh yes, I've seen other dancers and customers steal tips as well. And try to prevent customers at the rail from tipping the dancer on stage!
    And as much as I like money, anyone who takes the time and effort to steal a SINGLE DOLLAR BILL in front of a room full of people has some serious problems.

    Do you guys think it is wrong to take a customers money at the end of a set without having time to dance for it yet? Sometimes I feel like guys get screwed when we don't get to them in time but take their cash anway. Somtimes I smile and say "Thank you, but I ran out of time. I'll leave the tip up for the nest girl," and leave his money on the stage so he can at least get a show for it. Sometimes I find this actually works better for me because guys dont think I am greedy and will ask me for a dance. Other women I work with tell me to just take the money, he put it up there for me.

    Speaking as a customer, when I put a tip out there during your set, it's for YOU. Take the tip. It's not for the next dancer. After all, I presumably did get to see you on stage (even if not up close). Isn't that worth something?

    I would also say that once a tip is out there, it belongs to the dancer. It isn't right for the customer to take it back because he isn't happy enough with the show he got (although if he puts a $100 bill out there by mistake, he's entitled to rectify that).

    I guess it is an area custom here, but at all the local clubs the dancers have garters and let the patron put their tip into the garter during the set. Sometimes I think the custom needs to be rethought, because that's probably where the largest portion of incidents requiring bouncers occurs.

    As far as sweeping a rail goes, I don't see a problem with it as long as its done with class. On the other hand, the girls that just shake their butt and walk around the poles before coming over for a tip do nothing for me, so I like things done with style. Take my money, that's why we're both there. Just do it with class... [oogle]

    Legally, in New York, we're not suppsosed to take $ in our g-strings, though 9 out of 10 times we do anyway- since each girl has a certain part of the stage (up to 4 girls on stage at a time), I have no problem sweeping the money to one side durin my set if a customer puts his tip on the stage - the main reason, though, is for safety. I don't want to slip on the bills and fall!! :o If the customer places the bills on stage & out of the way, I'll not collect them, but look down and say thank you, as an acknowledgement -

    If I don't get to a few guys, I'll look at them and say something cute about saving the best for last and getting screwed out of dancing for them or whatever. Nine times out of ten, they'll hold the dollars out to me, but if they don't I don't take them.

    But there are clubs where money is just thrown on the stage or tip rail and it's not customary for a girl to dance for a customer before taking his money, and in that case, I'll just take it.

    Generally, it's not rude or a problem if you sweep the bills out of the way. Just do it as part of your routine. Get down in front of the guys and give them a cute little show, kiss on cheek, etc. Most guys at my club like to give the bills to the girls directly, and we're allowed a 'little' room for that, but sometimes they'll just hang dollars on the rail in front of them. When they do that, I make my way over and give them a personalized mini-show, or pick up the bill(s) and have them place it between my boobs, or just crawl over, lick my lips at both them and the dollar, and 'slyly' grab it with a giggle (then a thank-you). I make a point of varying the way I do it, so it's not boring and gives the customers an incentive to offer another to see what I'll do next.

    Either way, I don't like leaving bills on the stage floor because it's dangerous! I have slipped on bills before and almost fell on my ass! Also, more often than not, once you take a tip from a guy in a flirty way, he will probably want you to do it again
