Do you ever want to just throw a sharp object across the room and it hit your boss?
You know, I love my job and all, and I wake up every day thinking about how people would love to be in my position...... but I HATE being looked at like a freakin' dumb bitch. Our club is owned by men (of course) and no matter what I do, I'm treated like I'm a freakin' bitch office assistant.
Last week our liquor distributor (total male pig) came in and was like, "hey, can you make me some coffee?"- all smug-
Meanwhile, I'm totally in the middle of something, and I said "You've got to be f-ing kidding me- why are you asking me? What, you think because I'm a girl...." and of course the guy behind me and the distributor chirped in with laughter and both were like, "yeah". I'm nobody's secretary. I wanted to kick his old short scrawny ass.
You know, the guys who own this place once told me (when I complained about the raise in house fees...twice) "you know, we PROVIDE these girls with a place to work-"
I said "Let me tell you something, since you seem to know everything: the girls don't NEED you, you NEED them. They can go somewhere else and their customers will follow, too. You think that a customer is here to stare at the wood paneling? They are here because of the GIRLS". Oh man, I had it out with them.
And why aren't we unionized?
OH- and one more point- I am SO sick of the guys (owners/management) thinking that they know everything about the business. That they are soooo smart in this industry...that they know all about the customers...that they know what the girls want/need....they know what's best for the club.
You know what? I have worked on BOTH sides (dancing/management): until you take off your clothes for a fat smelly bald sweaty man with cigar breath, don't tell me that you know everything. Until YOU are the one, alone, in a private room for an hour (or more) with a stinky drunk moran trying to get down your pants, don't tell me you know what the customers want.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!
WHEW.... I feel much better now. Thanks for listening.
Any of you out there feel similar?
