    Default support staff (dj) issues.

    What do you do with a dj who obviously plays favorites? The dj that I work with will really play up certain girls that are his type. The rest of us he just says "welcome miss __ to the stage."

    I've noticed that most of the girls he plays up are all a certain physical type and the ones who aren't barely stop short of giving him a blowjob in his booth.

    I'm kind of hesitant to bring this up to management because well, the girls he treats well LOVE him and i'd hate to start any drama. I'm probably not even going to be in this area much longer, but my goal is to save up to move and I really could use the $$.

    Maybe they tip him for it?

    Why does that bother you anyway? He's not doing anything to you.

    My DJ stole $20 from me this week - there's something to be cranky about.

    I'm sure it bothers you, but, people in general just play favorites. Let it go. Bringing it up to management will just 'cause more problems for you. You don't need him to pump you up on stage, just work your own magic.

    Try asking him to announce you a certain way. Also, tipping is crucial for preferential treatment from DJs. The DJs I work with take really good care of me, from the way they announce me, to my light show and saving certain songs for me when I'm working. It didn't become this way overnight, but I also didn't whine about it. Make sure you're communicating and showing your appreciation. At the end of the night, these guys don't have to chase me down with their hand out. They get a tip with a smile and a thank you.

    The dj's hustle in the club is exactly like the dancers in the way they pay attention to what pays.
    Im not saying its right for dj's to do this,but more then most do it imo.To the point if I said i didnt do it myself,MOST entertainers would think im full of shit.
    You just aint lived till you have to stand toe to toe with your top tipper of all time and tell her "NO".
    Its the same as when a dancer has to tell her top tipper"no".
    yup yup
    same same
    both suck.

    First look at the club organization chart. The real one that you observe not the one on paper. Is the DJ in a semi management role at your club? Example if he calls the girls to
    the four stages, and organizes the rotation, he's semi management. If he enforces the
    timeliness of the girls to the stage, and has attendance, tip out, house fees by punch in time, and the interior communication system he is management in my book.

    For instance his records would govern what time you got there and if you get first shot to leave early in a larger club that's open to 4 a.m.

    I used to bribe one of the DJS to "play my songs" and hand him a cd burned with songs.
    I would then specify can you do this soon? That meant she would get three stage
    shows in prior to 9 p.m. when so many girls showed up that you might get one rotation on stage if you were lucky.

    My real agenda was to get ATF up as soon as possible to a stage so she could
    get her table side dances in prior to us going to VIP later. The stage was essential to
    other income and I was on her side. Some of the other DJ's couldn't be bribed so that was most annoying. She tipped teh DJS well, and she was never late to the stage which they appreciated. She was also a good dancer, in terms of being a good dancer, not just a sexy dancer. My opinion is that all things being equal a dj will do his or her job and put up the better dancers more.

    My comments here assume you have a club where being on the stage is essential for
    hustling drinks, talking to guys, getting noticed and doing table side dances. Tends to also increase VIP room hits. On this I know many dancers disagree and get out of stage dancing. However the djs have the slots and stage to fill and keep the show going so
    they didn't like girls who always bought their way out of stage rotations either.

    Bottom line is (and I hate to say it) its the money, Ist that what were here for??? A good tipper asks me for the same song theat mis Min. no matter what asks for and guess who gets it. For the most part this isnt a concern to me but...it is the nature of the beast.

    Money, money, money...that is all what working in a club is about (as far as tipping out goes, that is.) I gurantee you those girls pay the DJ more than you, which is why they get a better intro.

    Next time you go to work and check in with the DJ, tell him this, "Take care of me and I will take care of you." I gurantee you if you do that it will work. And if there is any specific way you want to be announced let him know! Give details!
    For example, I do adult movies, and when I started at my current club, I went up to the booth, talked to the guys, had them write down the names of a handful of my movies I've done, and told them what else I wanted them to say. And since then they do that everytime (they now have about five of my movies memorized) and I tip them for it. At our club the minimum DJ tip out is $5, I normally give them $15, and I get hooked up on stage. And there have been one or two nights where I have had a bad night, and to tell them I had a bad night and would make it up to themand I did and it was no problem.

    So that is the advice I can give you...."take care of them," and they will take care of you I promise.
