    Smiley Spearmint Rhino in Los Angeles?

    Does anyone out there in forum land work at a Spearming Rhino in LA? I applied at the one in Van Nuys but was considering downtown or Torrance? Any suggestions and tips for going about it? Also, the reason I haven't started at the one in Van Nuys is cause I got cold feet cause I had so many questions. Like, is it a gown club or ...you know what are the ins and outs??

    I have been to the one in the City of Industry and can't remember if they wore gowns or what. Any help is great.

    I think Chili_Palmer said the Torrance one is good thats it nice?? I have a crappy memory so you might want to ask him. City of Industry I heard is high mileage?? Again, I could be wrong.
    Have you checked out Z-Bone.com? They have some great info there are the LA area. Im sure their will be some comments on the SR chain from the gals here.

    Well alot of girls go between van nuys and downtown. Not a gown club. it won the best SC (city of industry) at the 1 down magazine awards. the spearmint rhino entertainer of the year 2005 is from the van nuys location.

    I may have many faults, but being wrong ain't one of them.

    Have you ever danced anywhere else before? If not, then I would recommend staying away from most of the SR's in LA.

    SRLA is dark, Celllblock D dark. Songs are cut, even by SR standards, which is saying something. The hustle is astonishing: you gotta be very, very pushy to make bank at this club, because the guys know how short the songs are and they hold onto their wallets waiting for the "right girl." Even I, who can fend off any number of dancers with a single (polite) "no", will no longer go to this club because of the hyper-aggressiveness of the ladies there.

    Many experienced dancers have issues dealing with SR's required hustle to achieve dance counts, make the tipouts, make the drink push requirements (I believe it's 8 $10 dollar dancer drinks or it comes out of your pocket), and then you have to deal with customers' expectations of mileage, which, at most Spearmint Rhinos in LA is high (meaning there is a lot of 2-way contact at a minimum, or you are one and done with guy and no tip will be given). If you've ever read any of my reviews on Z-Bone, then you'll get some idea of what I am talking about. (For example, mileage at all the City of Industry clubs is very, very high, and the SRVN club is referred to by my lapping associates as SR-HJ.) You may also PM me if you're uncomfortable with a mileage discussion on this forum, which is very uptight about anything related to contact.

    OTOH, SR-Torrance is just a topless bar, not a nude club. It probably has more lighting fixtures than the Industry, Rialto, Santa Barbara and LA clubs combined. As more than one dancer has told me, the club makes its money from the alcoholic drinks they sell, so the dancers have no "dancer drink" push whatsoever. Most dancers are actually pleasant at this club, a change of pace from most of the Rhinos (and I practically have my mail forwarded to SRI, so its not bagging on the chain, just the way it is). Mileage is limited 1-way contact (just grinding, maybe some mild Stevie Wonder thrown in if the customer has shaved), laps are cheaper and the tipouts are so low that you have to wonder if SR management was smoking weed when they made the rules for this place.

    SR, as well as the other major strip club chain (Deja Vu), is not for everyone. They have more rules and more hands in your purse than the smaller clubs, and may not be the best place for your career to begin. It's very easy to get discouraged, lose money and give up before you get the confidence and ability it takes to succeed and prosper in this industry. You may want to look at other options before taking the plunge; the choice, of course, is yours. Just go into it with both eyes open.

    I've only been to one Spearmint Rhino in the LA area. Can't tell you which one. It seemed to be generally south and east of downtown, but I couldn't swear to it. I think there was a railroad trestle nearby. Maybe some other strip clubs within a few blocks.

    It was the highest hustle, one of the highest contact, and most soulless strip club I've been to.
