So, I totally adore all our bartenders and waitresses. They kick ass!!! BUT, tonight one of our bartenders went on stage and did a topless stage show. She made $600 on stage, so I heard, but I saw the PILE of money up there and I have no doubt in my mind that she made about that much. Anyway, we have to be licensed to work where I work and it costs $300 for it. Our manager told all the girls who are dancers that don't have a license that they can't work, but he allowed the bartender to go up and she BANKED!!! I am all for all my girls making money, but she isn't a dancer. I don't hold this against her, I hold it against management. I totally don't think it was fair for her to be allowed to do that. On top of it all, that is money the actual dancers could have made, wether it went to me or not. I just don't think that she should have been allowed to do that. If she wants to dance, she should; she's hot!!! If she did a stage and didn't go topless I don't think I'd be as bitter about things. My license is what allows me to go topless. Am I in the right thinking that it was a bad move on managements side??? I wasn't the only girl upset. All the girls I work with all get along and we really like this bartender, it just made us all a bit bitter. So I'd love some feed back. Am I just being jealous cuz she made $600 on stage or am I right in thinking that she shouldn't have been allowed to do a topless stage show?? xoxoxxx

I have a problem with it because the city I work in is really strict and i wasn't allowed to dance until I got my license. I wouldn't want my club shut down because of something like this. Our bartenders and waitresses make great money most of the time.... often more than some of the girls!!!! More power to em for it too!!! Would I still be upset if she'd only made $50??? yes, I would actually, just because management has really been cracking down on the license thing this past week and some of my friends have been asked not to reurn until they get it. If I'd been hanging out with the guys who tipped her I might be more mad about the money, but I dunno. Bartender/waitress shows are awesome, i love to see them get up on stage and so does the crowd; get's them going if things are too quiet. I have even done a stage show with one of them, but she was told to keep her bra on. I guess in a nut shell it's the principal and the legal issues that are the real issue with me. OH! And yes the waitstaff helps out with customers and stuff like that and picking up the dressing room and cleaning the stage etc etc etc, and i ALWAYS tip them when I notice it. i used to waitress myself. Thanks for your bartenders point of view reply, liah. xoxoxxx
In that case maybe you could point out the illegality to the bartender herself.
