    Default Do Most Dancers Feel This Way About Customers?

    I found this on Craigslist, I'm wondering if most dancers feel this way. As a dancer myself, I do understand some of her rants, trust me, I understand, and I know many dancers who feel this way as well. But I do think she's one unhappy bitter dancer.

    Comments from customers?

    Also, I do have a question. Is it a bit disturbing to you customers at all that you are getting attention from dancers because of your $ and not your personality or charms or whatever? Or does the fact that you have to pay for the attention part of the fantasy? Just curious, thanks!



    RANTS:

    1) Hey you over there, holding that one dollar bill in your hand with a death grip and waving it around at me like it's the fucking deed to Trump Towers... what the fuck do you want me to do, grow another pussy?? It's a fuckin' dollar, put it down on the tiprail already.

    2) Men that come into the club for a lapdance with NO underwear or boxers and thin-ass, nylon shorts, so we slip and slide on your hard-on (which always feel like a sharpie pen). Ew! I don't even bother dancing with you nasty fucks anymore.

    3) You with the thick-ass jeans--this was an impromptu visit, eh?

    4) Don't pull my thong up during a dance and ask me if that felt good. It does NOT FEEL GOOD.

    5) Hey you loser, counting all your bills to me after the dance, all $20 in ones, and rubbing your fingers between each one to make sure you are giving me just that one dollar. Yes, you.

    6) No I will not let you just "slip it in real quick" for 50 more bucks. If you're going to proposition me, at least don't insult my worth.

    7) Stop asking me if my tits are real. There are as real as my affection for you.

    If you cum in your pants, you have to tip me an extra $100 for being a lame-ass who can cum from just a lapdance.

    9) Stop asking me out. You're a smelly, fat loser and the only reason I'm smiling and cooing at you is because I want your money. Outside of the club I wouldn't even fart your way.

    10) Stop bitching at me about the goddamn two drink minimum. First of all your breath stinks, you have a piece of salami stuck to your goat-tee and you look like Jay Leno. Secondly, I don't give a shit.

    11) Don't bitch at me about the $8 non-alchoholic beer either. Hide a bottle of Jack in your coat pocket next time like everyone else does.

    12) My horniness is in direct proportion to your income.

    13) No, you CAN'T SMOKE. Dumb. Ass.

    14) Boys, don't sit in the front row with your homeboys and act all engrossed in some deep conversation (knowing damn well you ain't talking 'bout shit) during a girls performance because you want to look like you're too "cool" to notice the hot, naked girl in front of you.

    15) DON'T SIT IN THE FRONT ROW IF YOU ARE NOT GOING TO TIP. Fer chrissakes!!!!!!!!!!!

    16) Dumb ass, don't ask me, "so what do you guys do when you're on your period?" Answer: I lap dance only with guys in dark pants.

    17) STOP trying to grab my tits!!!!!!!!! That's extra.

    1 SHOWER FIRST, you nasty fuck!

    19) If you don't tip me, I'm going to call your wife.

    20) I had a feeling you weren't going to tip me, so I took extra care to rub my lip gloss on your collar and wear extra glitter lotion before our dance.

    21) Hey cheap-asses: please don't come to my work. Just stay home and jack off to reruns of "I love Genie" instead. It will save us a both a lot of unpleasantry.

    22) Stop asking me why I do this job and get all analytical on me. For the MONEY you moron, that's why. Duh.

    23) No seriously, my real name is Vixen Blue.

    24) NO, I will not take a dime sac of weed for payment. I can tell it's oregano anyway you sick mutherfucker!

    25) Sorry, I don't do that. Ask the ugly girl with the overbite and the black roots over there by the bar.

    26) It is not okay for you to bounce me on your cock like a baby on a knee. Not okay.

    27) Stop complaining about how short the song was. It felt like the fucking maxi-single to me.

    2 Yes I will fuck you, but only for 10 grand. More if you're ugly. So basically, more.

    29) DO NOT come into the club looking for a girlfriend/date. DO. NOT.

    30) I don't care if you're cute and/or Brad Pitt's stunt double. I do not give free lapdances. Cute don't pay the rent.

    31) Girls--what's with the pole smell? Can we do a little hygiene check? Nothing than worse than twirling around a pole and getting a whiff of stale pussy.

    32) Girls--stop lip-syncing to the song you're dancing to on stage. Especially if you don't quite know all the words.

    33) Girls--if your toes curl and hang over your platforms a la' Fred Flinstone, you need to go up a size.

    34) Girls--drowning yourself in Angel perfume is just as bad if not worse than the BO you're trying to cover.

    35) Hey DJ! You suck!

    36) Girls--may I suggest complete sobriety before getting tatted up? Tattoos should be meaningful, or at least semi-meaningful, or at least semi semi-meaningful. That fucking smurf on your ass is lame.

    37) Girls--some songs should not be stripped to. Please. No Disney soundtracks (you know who you are), Sade, Bjork, or Aaron Carter. PLEASE.

    Thanks for listening.

    That is how we all SOMETIMES feel. Since when are we supposed to be happy just to be there, putting up with all the bullshit from customers? We are there to make money. Granted it is a fun job, but the fact that someone needs to vent does not make her a 'bitter unhappy' dancer.

    A stripclub is not even close to the same as a regular nightclub where the girls go to get drunk and laid. The girls in a stripclub are there to make money, and thankfully, most customers know that. It's the ones who try to act like it's a regular nightclub (or whorehouse) who piss us off.

    I am first to say that I understand her, I really do, I am also a dancer and have to deal with men who grab here and there, think they can get me to overstep my boundaries by waving $1 in my face, etc. At the same time, to be this unhappy, maybe she might consider doing something else. No one is saying dancing is fun ALL of the time, or even MOST of the time. Maybe she is only ranting and raving on a bad day and her post is taken out of perspective, in that case, I am more than happy to retract my comments about her being unhappy and bitter, but her rants seem to indicate she hates the business in itself!

    Nah, that was a fairly typical rant. Go read the Ladies Only and Hustle Hut boards for some real pain and bitterness.

    I took that rant from Craigslist more as witty sarcasm than an expression of any actual vitriol. I think its hilarious because there's a lot of basic human truth to what she's saying. Haven't we ALL seen people at clubs like the ones that she's lambasting?

    Who amongst us hasn't wanted to make a complaint list like that about the morons that we have to deal with at work, or with people in general? Hell, my list of gripes could fill a phone book. Better to vent your frustrations out on a bulletin board than make a scene about it at work I say.

    I can't comment on how dancer's feel (I am not one). I can comment on how customers feel (I am ono on rare occassions).

    "Is it a bit disturbing to you customers at all that you are getting attention from dancers because of your $ and not your personality or charms or whatever?"

    I can't speak for all guys, but to me it is not part of the fantasy, but it is part of the reality.

    Is it disturbing? Not to me, but then I just see it as a mutual using for a few hours. No big deal.

    I guess I could ask is it disturbing to dancers that they have to fake emotions to make money. And I imagine to some degree it is disturbing to some dancers (and it really seems to be disturbing to this dancer).

    Let me be just a little bit philisophical for a minute. Some are born lucky (and I do say lucky because we have little control over how or where we are born) to be intelligent and ultimately successful. Others are lucky to be born to be exceptionally beautful. I am not saying beautiful women don't have to work at it, but likewise successfull intelligent men have to work at it too. Others are just plain unlucky. They didn't chose to be unlucky just as a dancer didn't chose to be born beautiful.

    Whatever, few of us have everything we want. Dancers want money. What do I want as a 40 year old gentlemen?

    o To sit close enough to a beautful girl to smell your perfume.

    o To feel your warm breath on my face.

    o To run my fingers through your long shiney hair.

    o To feel your heart pounding against my chest.

    I am lucky enough to be successful, but not lucky enough to have been born beautiful. As I said in another post, not all guys that go to SCs are loser or loners. A lot of us guys are successful, we are just not exceptionally beautiful.

    Just as a dancer's only (realistic) way of making money is by dancing, my only realistic way of being close to very beautiful women is by paying for it for a couple of hours.

    Is it disturbing to have to pay for fake attention? Not to me. It is worth it to me to (on rare occassion) because what is the alternative? Not experiencing your company at all. But I hold no misbelief that dancers are actually attracted to me (no matter how much they say they are or fake it). It is a mutual using, but I think that is okay. Dancers need my money, I need to be close to a beautiful woman for a short while. Everyone gets what they want.

    Okay different topic. I don't get guys that are too dense to realize how lame it is to go to a SC wearing dirty clothes and stinking. Common sense. Just as we wouldn't want to be near a woman that is stinky and dressed in rags... well anyway, common sense.

    to be brutally frank, i really don't care what most dancers think. i really don't pay them to think. i pay them to perform. it's a sc, not the Cato Institute. however, it is a funny rant.

    not really, it's not that serious. for me, it's just a LD. i really don't go to sc to hear SS.

    LOL. That was rather entertaining. Thanks.

    I consider myself a magnetic gentleman and always conduct myself as such. It’s all about taking it where the situation governs it should go. I hit my very first SC in Denver Colorado while attending Air Force technical training. I don’t even count that as a visit because I was 17, astounded, and excited all at the same time.

    Recently I began frequenting one club in particular. You’ll find me chillin at the bar sippin on some spirits and socializing with the work force. There is one specific member of the workforce that monopolizes my time which I gladly accept. I have always believed you treat those you encounter in life the same way you would want to be treated. Thus far it has worked like a charm (even in the SC).

    Although I have been known to stop in and toss more money around than usual at times, I do stick to representing my username. Despite knowing this she still loves monopolizing my time. Who am I to argue with that? Monopolize on baby.

    I love this old Craigslist post as it's witty and sarcastic. I'd absolutely LOVE to meet this woman that wrote this. I'm betting she'd be an absolute scream to hang with in the club.

    I don't take any offense to it any more than I take offense to one of my dancer friends in the club throwing off a colorful term for that old codger regular in the sweatpants as she heaves a sigh and heads off to greet him. Humor about any job or workplace abounds, and it's always overly dramatic and sarcastic for comedic effect. Stripclubs are not exempt from this.

    Honestly, if there is any offense to this then people should feel threatened working in the tech sector from reading Dilbert, or give up any office jobs from the movie Office Space.

    funny, someone posted that on SW, without any comments of their own. just started a thread and posted that.

    my response was, "whats the point?" since they didn't ask anything of the group or make any statements themselves. i got lambasted. "its funny, thats the point" and all sorts of crap from everyone. i guess they were all too stupid to see how it could possibly be taken in another context than funny. it could be taken as offensive, which is the angle you're curious about here.

    thank you for atleast giving me, the reader, some idea as to what kind of response you're looking for.

    anyway, doesn't bother me that i have to pay them. its a job. i go in knowing that they dont want me, they want my money. i go in and get what i want(a hot chick to sit on my dick). it all works out. no regrets. besides, this girl sounds really uptight. i dont get dances from her. i get them from the more laid back girls.

    Not only do I like those (lack of eloquence notwithstanding) but I privately scream all of them at least once a week. And more.


    YOU may be free after work but I am not. Hell, I'm not even free AT work; I cost $30 per song.

    Yes, I am in it for the money. Deal with it. I doubt you do your job for the philathropist's high.

    Spilling your drink on stage makes me slip? Whoda thunk it?

    No, I'm not a dancer, Einstein. I'm just an ordinary civilian who gets some sort of kick out of wearing thongs, platform heels, enough makeup for three women and a see-through skirt to a strip club.... just for shits and giggles.

    Don't look so surpised when comments that you "just want to watch" or "just here for the beer" are met with sarcastic laughter. Following remarks like that with gems such as "What, you're just going to leave now?" will be met with "Yes."

    For the women: please note carefully that I am the professional and you are not, and behave accordingly. Pussy/titty flashing, slipping the tongue to dancers OR customers you've never met before will get you thrown out as quickly as any drunk guy. And yes, we all know it's because you can't stand that another woman has all the attention.

    Newsflash! On occasion there are customers in the club with lovely resonant voices, delicious cologne, good looks or even (gasp!) a personality. Responding to a genuine compliment with scorn will make me immediately backtrack and agree that you're an unmitigated asshat, with my profuse apologies for having not seen this sooner.

    I'm the dancer. You are not. Quit moving your hips like you fancy yourself some Wild West mustang trying to buck me off.

    Do not act all mock-surprised that I'm drinking Coke. The stuff's been around for years now and isn't all that remarkable. I recommend you try it some time.

    If you don't want to give more than $1 on stage, then do not approach the stage unprepared. No, I don't want to find you after I'm done. Not only no, but hell no you can't have change. Do I look like a bank teller to you?

    For the record, it is vastly annoying to stand around twiddling my thumbs while you flip through $300 worth of twenties to find a dollar bill.

    "Adequate" is not that big of a word. Please refrain from commentary on my 'huge' vocabulary ( and if the words "... for a stripper" cross your lips, then so help you God) unless I pull out a truly five-dollar word. "Troglodyte" seems quite appropriate in such a situation.

    Fat, balding old men who smell funny and also comment on how they only like fit, young beauties obviously have never encountered the concept of irony.

    Feel free to assume that all complaints about what the club charges or what I won't do will be filed under the heading of Things I Don't Give A Damn About.

    Any offer preceded by "I don't get dances, but how about..." will be totally in the magical land of Not Gonna Happen.

    All those reasons why guys give for being in the club 2+ times every week without spending a dime? We all laugh at them in the dressing room.


    I swear, for every 4-10 decent customers (depending upon the crowd) there will be one of the losers above. The losers are the reason I sometimes wonder why I like this job. Thank goodness they aren't the majority.

    Ahh, classic Lilith!

    And since we're on the subject of rant lists, here's why I privately scream.:

    Dancers

    1. Body glitter. I don’t know if it looks good on you, but one thing that I do know is that you can’t expect it to stay on you if you dance for me. Leave the kiddie makeup at home please. I don’t want to take it home.

    2. I just can’t tell you how sexy it is (heh, heh) when you sell me a dance then proceed to do any of the following during the course of it:

    a.) Stare blankly at the mirror behind my chair instead of me. You checking your makeup or something?

    b.) Talk to someone who you aren’t dancing for. Yeah honey, I’m really paying you $20/song just so you can bullshit with the DJ about what to play for your next stage set, or where you and Bubbles are going to score some weed after hours.

    c.) Blow your pickled breath in my face after you’ve proceeded to down about six White Russians in a two hour span. Does this lap dance include a barf bag by chance?

    d.) Procede to yak during the whole dance about how great the dances are in the VIP room. You mean to tell me that I can spend twice as much per song for you to move your mouth and not your hips? Golly gee, where do I sign?


    3. Just a suggestion, but when you have stains/cigarette burns on your dress, holes in your stockings, and shoes that look like they’re going to collapse at any minute, it might be a good idea to invest in some new outfits.

    4. You expect me to tip you on top of the dance price? Aww, how sweet of you. After all, I only busted my ass at work for two hours to earn that twenty bucks. I should be more sympathetic to your plight since you had to work a whole agonizing four minutes to take it from me.

    5. I love to see a dancer so talented that she knows how to multitask, but watching you bob around the club saying “wanna dance?” at every table while maintaining your stride really isn’t impressing me. You’re a dancer my dear, not a damned peanut vendor at the baseball stadium.

    6. Thank you so much for agreeing to a dance, and wandering off to God knows where for the next eternity-and-a-half without telling me that you have other guys lined up ahead of me. I can’t express enough how much I enjoy sitting on my ass for the following two hours waiting for your sunny presence to show back up. Hope you made a lot of money sitting with the other couch potatoes in the dressing room.

    7. I know you hate the damned 2-for-1’s, but for God sake, don’t come up to me, offer me a 2-for-1, and treat me like I left my math skills at home. When the standard dance price is $20, two for $30 is not the advertised deal, nor is saying that I only get the free dance after I’ve bought five from you at regular price. If its that much of a problem, then find another club to work at.

    8. Consider the silver lining of hearing the word “no” out of me. I’ve given you the consideration of freeing your time up, so you can go to the next table and hear “maybe later” from that idiot.

    9. Okay, let me get this straight. Several of your co-workers have let me pay at the end tonight , BUT I’m required to pay you up front because your last customer stiffed you? Sweetie, do I look like your last customer? Didn't think so.

    10. Lets see. You hung out at the bar all night, sat and smoked at the lazy dancer’s table, had several drinks, imbibed in some illegal substances back in the dressing room, and you’re complaining about how little money you made. Now what could have possibly happened to bring this situation about?

    11. I’m drinking soda/water/juice because I don’t drink. I’m dressed casually because I don’t want my nice work clothes reeking of cigarette smoke and perfume. When apporaching me for a dance, don’t read into my choice of beverage or attire more than I meant by it. I just might be willing to part with more money than Mr. Armani suit drinking the Johnny Walker Gold over there.

    Waitresses

    I buy a $2.50 cent drink, hand over a five, get $2.50 back and hand the quarters back first.

    1. Oh what’s that, you expect a $1 tip per drink? Yeah, you’re right honey you deserve a dollar. I was going to give you $1.50, but since you shot your arrogant mouth off before I was finished tipping you...

    DJ’s

    1. Just my humble opinion but Techno sucks!! I'd rather hear Winger than most of that shit. I did not come here tonight to watch dancers stoned on X, struting around to rave music. If you want to play that electronica crap, then go DJ at a dance club.

    2. Announce the dancer on stage, announce which girls are coming up, and then shut the hell up please! This is their show, not yours.

    Club management

    1. No one’s using your VIP/champagne room? Setting the price for getting into it beyond the means of 98% of your customers wouldn’t have anything to do with that now would it?

    2. I know you have a bottom line to protect, but when you become so greedy that you piss off either your dancers or your customer base, you shouldn’t act so surprised when one group follows the other out the door. Your Fat Tony asses will be raking them clams then, won’t you?

    3. To the fires of hell with your damned promos. I don’t want your T-shirt, porn movie, or whatever assorted crap you’ve attached to the price of a dance. Your dancers I'm sure hate being required to sell it too. I mean, where the f*@k in public do you think that I'm going to wear a shirt or ball cap with your club’s name on it? My son’s baseball game? Burn the damned merchandising and stick with the basics.

    4. I like a club to look nice, but for Criminey’s sake, do you think anyone gives a shit about an exterior that resembles one of Saddam Hussein’s palaces, and an interior full of plush, marble, and other largesse which does nothing but glitter and shine, and make a lot of your customers feel intimidated. You’re running a strip club damnit, not a Four Seasons resort.

    5. At the other end of the amenities spectrum, I don’t exactly consider a functioning urinal or a bathroom that isn’t under six inches of water to be a luxury. Could you get your plumbing and septic system to work properly please?

    Other Customers

    1. You in the stage seat next to me. Yeah buddy, I really just came in and sat in that seat so I could subsidize your entertainment for the evening while you sip your $4 beer and shout “oh yeah baby” every time the gal comes to collect my dollar. You want a show then get your own wallet out.

    2. Gee did I walk into the hip-hop lounge by mistake? Quit trying to stir up a ghetto party when the coked up DJ plays tham lame ass 50 Cent song you like. I came here to watch the ladies shake their asses, not you.

    3. Hey regular boy, yeah you there staring at me across the room with the ugly scowl. Am I holding up, or ahem, FUCKOING your favorite girl? Happens to me all the time buddy. If you wanted her exclusive attention, you should have arranged an appointment. Otherwise its first come, first serve.

    At juice/BYOB clubs where 18 year olds can go:

    4. Yeah you 18-20 year olds, thanks for all that hooting, hollering, grabbing the dancers and waitresses asses without permission, and other assorted imbecilic behavior. That just so, helps put everyone in a good mood. I suppose you need to act that way because you’ve never been to a SC before and that’s what you’ve been taught to do by TV and movies.

    5. Hey frat boy, yeah you in the prime seat trying to hit up dancers for dates, who’s tipped about two bucks in the last hour, that hot brunette on stage has told you four times already doesn’t want to date your lame ass. Maybe I should administer you a cold hard reality check by offering to buy some dances from her so she can make some money instead of dealing with you. Would doing that piss your broke ass off? Ahh, Splendid, let me get my wallet.

    Not only do I like those (lack of eloquence notwithstanding) but I privately scream all of them at least once a week. And more.


    YOU may be free after work but I am not. Hell, I'm not even free AT work; I cost $30 per song.

    Yes, I am in it for the money. Deal with it. I doubt you do your job for the philathropist's high.

    Spilling your drink on stage makes me slip? Whoda thunk it?

    No, I'm not a dancer, Einstein. I'm just an ordinary civilian who gets some sort of kick out of wearing thongs, platform heels, enough makeup for three women and a see-through skirt to a strip club.... just for shits and giggles.

    Don't look so surpised when comments that you "just want to watch" or "just here for the beer" are met with sarcastic laughter. Following remarks like that with gems such as "What, you're just going to leave now?" will be met with "Yes."

    For the women: please note carefully that I am the professional and you are not, and behave accordingly. Pussy/titty flashing, slipping the tongue to dancers OR customers you've never met before will get you thrown out as quickly as any drunk guy. And yes, we all know it's because you can't stand that another woman has all the attention.

    Newsflash! On occasion there are customers in the club with lovely resonant voices, delicious cologne, good looks or even (gasp!) a personality. Responding to a genuine compliment with scorn will make me immediately backtrack and agree that you're an unmitigated asshat, with my profuse apologies for having not seen this sooner.

    I'm the dancer. You are not. Quit moving your hips like you fancy yourself some Wild West mustang trying to buck me off.

    Do not act all mock-surprised that I'm drinking Coke. The stuff's been around for years now and isn't all that remarkable. I recommend you try it some time.

    If you don't want to give more than $1 on stage, then do not approach the stage unprepared. No, I don't want to find you after I'm done. Not only no, but hell no you can't have change. Do I look like a bank teller to you?

    For the record, it is vastly annoying to stand around twiddling my thumbs while you flip through $300 worth of twenties to find a dollar bill.


    "Adequate" is not that big of a word. Please refrain from commentary on my 'huge' vocabulary ( and if the words "... for a stripper" cross your lips, then so help you God) unless I pull out a truly five-dollar word. "Troglodyte" seems quite appropriate in such a situation.

    Fat, balding old men who smell funny and also comment on how they only like fit, young beauties obviously have never encountered the concept of irony.

    Feel free to assume that all complaints about what the club charges or what I won't do will be filed under the heading of Things I Don't Give A Damn About.

    Any offer preceded by "I don't get dances, but how about..." will be totally in the magical land of Not Gonna Happen.

    All those reasons why guys give for being in the club 2+ times every week without spending a dime? We all laugh at them in the dressing room.


    I swear, for every 4-10 decent customers (depending upon the crowd) there will be one of the losers above. The losers are the reason I sometimes wonder why I like this job. Thank goodness they aren't the majority.
    LMAO Lilith. That was great. (esp. the one in bold)

    DJ’s

    1. Just my humble opinion but Techno sucks!! I'd rather hear Winger than most of that shit. I did not come here tonight to watch dancers stoned on X, struting around to rave music. If you want to play that electronica crap, then go DJ at a dance club.
    HEY!!!!!!!!!!! i agree techno sucks, and i appreciate your attempt to get the dj to play Winger...but it seems to me that you're hinting at winger sucking. is this true? i dont know. i hope thats not what you're saying. i mean, i read it, and it sounds like you're saying that if it wasn't for techno music, Winger would be the worst thing you could possibly here.

    Lord help you if thats what you think, i'll personally make a trip down to see you. park outside your house/appartment/condo/van/whatever and blast winger all day and night.

    You love Kip Winger, and you know it!


    otherwise, the rest of it was great. lilith's was charming as always too.

    Now, waitasec...we can dream, can&#039;t we?

    Actually, if the point of a SC is fantasy, why shouldn&#039;t ones fantasy include "fit, young beauties." If you&#039;re referring to life-mates, well...then I guess there&#039;s nothing wrong with setting one&#039;s sights high, although one shouldn&#039;t be disappointed if the FYBs don&#039;t reciprocate the affection.

    You’re a dancer my dear, not a damned peanut vendor at the baseball stadium.

    I was referring to fat, balding old men who like to sit and comment that a girl doesn&#039;t meet their aesthetic demands. The irony of heaping derision on a girl that needs to lose five pounds is lost on those who could stand to lose the equivilent of my body weight.


    I don&#039;t think the point here is readily clear (though I see no reason why it isn&#039;t). We do not have 100% job satisfaction, and that is often directly attributed to the actions or statements of drooling imbeciles posing as customers. The SC may be a fantasy world, but we are real people who naturally experience real irritation when some dumb boob wants to show off his lack of social skills. The surprising thing isn&#039;t that we do not enjoy total job satisfaction (because no one ever does), but that we can more or less successfully hide this fact until our shift is over. THEN we can come here and share choice epithets against the dregs, male and female, whom we&#039;ve all encountered in the club.


    Doc, I&#039;m gonna heartily second one of yours. For fuck&#039;s sake, have the wait- and barstaff ever worked in another tip industry? Last I checked, three quarters was well over 15% for a tip on a $3.25 beer. Exactly how much fecking moeny do they need us to give for the pleasure of waiting ages for them to deign to notice us? I&#039;m getting so tired of being sneered at and served AFTER every other customer they can find because I won&#039;t tip 50%.

    Heartily enjoying the posts, with the most thanks going to Lilith and Catfish.

    Lilith, I must confess that I&#039;m awful with accepting compliments, but that has more to do with low self-esteem than any reflection on the complimenter.

    Re: the complaints with club management. Right on. After having been fighting a contest of wills with the management of my club the last few weeks, I think they are going to be quite surprised when the new club opens up and over half the dancers and patrons pick up and run to it. Fat Tonys indeed!

    37) Girls--some songs should not be stripped to. Please. No Disney soundtracks (you know who you are), Sade, Bjork, or Aaron Carter. PLEASE.

    What is wrong w/ Sade? Some people like slow, sensuous music

    Cheers,
