So I guess I quit this weekend! I went in Friday as usual, to discover that two days before, both of the managers quit, the good DJ's quit, and the remaining manager is a rude, condescending jackass. Fridays are usually the good nights here, but the manager and DJ kept running 3-for-1 specials every 15 minutes or so. So we were all working three times as hard for less money, and no one wanted to buy VIP's or anything but 3-for-1's. Even the top earners weren't making anything; I went home with $160 for the hardest, most vicious hustling I've ever had to do. And half of it was from a guy I met OTC who has a crush on me. (And he came in his pants during the dance - EWWW.)
To top it all off, the DJ has never done this before and he SUCKS. He was cutting off songs by just hitting "stop" at some completely unpredictable point, often right in the middle of a move, leaving a big silent gap. The songs kept skipping with big silent gaps in the middle. And he kept putting in a CD, letting the first track start, and then just skipping it until he found the song he wanted. It was perfectly awful.
There's a new floorman too, and he doesn't pay very close attention to who is giving dances and how many. He just marks down whatever he thinks it probably is, with the result that some girls might get charged for dances they didn't sell.
Saturday night no one wanted to buy and I just was not in the mood to beg for 3-for-1's. The manager kept yelling at me to stop giving him "attitude" and get out there, but I just shrugged him off. I'm not living on this money and I didn't feel like begging, especially since most of them didn't speak English anyway. Eventually my friends came in and we had a terrific time - I even did my first two-girl show - but when they left at 12:30 I packed up and left too. I don't think I'll be back.
So now I have to find a new club, which sucks. This one was convenient to my job, has low house fees, and until last week it was well-run and a great place to work. The girls all get along great and support each other, and there are cameras to make sure everything stays completely clean and extras-free. Now I have to find another club and start over. Big bummer.
