    Fired! WTF??

    So after last night, which was very slow but I made some money, I got up this evening and went back to my new club for my third shift there. It's an hour drive each way, but it's a good club and worth it. I got there about 8 p.m., plugged in my curling iron and got a cup of coffee, and started to do my makeup.

    So then this overaged frat boy comes in the dressing room with this rude tone and goes, "Can I help you?" I nicely introduced myself and he snapped, "You don't work here." I said, "Yes, I do, this is my third time here."

    Him: "Yeah, on DAYS." (with a really nasty tone)
    Me: "No, actually, I've been on nights. I was here last night."
    Him: "Well, *I* didn't hire you, and I'm the hiring manager. I've been on vacation. And I don't want to hire you. We don't need you here."
    Me: "Are you telling me I can't work tonight?"
    Him: "Yes."
    Me: "WTF. I just drove all the way down here from Hollywood, and now you're telling me I can't work. Mind if I ask why?"
    Him: "Because I didn't hire you. You can stay and work tonight since you drove that far, but you can't come back. I've got enough girls and I don't want anymore."

    Fuck it. I got my stuff and drove another hour home again. I have no idea what the hell that was all about. Most of the girls at that club are seriously overweight, so it's not a looks thing. My friend theorizes that someone ran me out for making too much money. Anyway, now I'm back on the hunt for a new club.

    This sucks because I walked away from a production job because I desperately need money right now, and I knew I could make more at this club. And here I am tonight, sitting at home, wondering why I was just summarily fired from a freakin' strip club.

    Damn, that was rude. I would have told him to take it up with the person that hired you. It's not your fault you were hired. I wouldn't have stayed either. You are a cute girl, what's his problem? Sounds like he had a major case of pms. I am sorry for you hon I hope you find another good club. I would try to help but I am on the other end of the country. Sorry again..

    I don't know why so many of you women put so much economic faith in such an incredibly flaky industry. I would have jumped at the production job and ate tomato soup for a month.

    I am a firm believer stripping is a part time job.

    Hopefully it is the universe making room in your life for something way way better.

    I've been living on generic macaroni for several months now. I have NOTHING. I just worked a week on that production job, 14 hours a day, and got a whopping $360 after taxes for the whole week - and had to borrow money to pay my rent. And I'm exhausted. I need some time to recharge, and more money. I figured I'd just dance for a few weeks and by then, another full project would come along. I didn't expect to be fired over some asshat's inferiority complex.

    For all the searching you have done you'd think you'd be able to settle down in a club by now. *sigh* What a douchbag for him to do that to you. Its not like he caught you smokin crack or something....basically had no reason to fire you.

    Someone was probably hating on you. Oh well onto another place then.

    Ok, not to name my club, or even say "my club", just hypothetical club A-

    the owner watches the girls on the club cameras from his house, and then calls the club to complain when he sees something amiss (eg- "tell that girl her ass is hanging out too much from those shorts" or "why the fuck aren't they getting all the way nude on the slow songs?! pulling up the dress doesn't count"). Anyway, the big brother aspect is good times. I love that he can see us in the changeroom with all his buddies from his living room. ..but the best part is he FIRES girls from home this way...a girl the other week walked out of the bathroom rubbing her nose, and he immediately called the manager to have her canned. She freaked saying she "had an itchy nose", and seriously, that's all it was. She had to throw a huge fit, came in the next day and demanded to work. They let her...i guess sometimes you can try fighting back. Cuz they're almost all power tripping assholes.

    This business can be pretty cut-throat, but the advantage is that you can move on and work at any other club. I've noticed a disproportionate number of asshole, power-tripping, loser managers in this business, but the good news is timing is everything.

    A club rejects you one day, but will hire you the next, perhaps because there are so many flaky, unreliable girls in the biz.

    Don't sweat it! It pays off so big on some day,s how can it possibly be fair in general?

    Ugh, that guy was an idiot! Do you really enjoy the day job and LA though? There's always other areas where you'll do better if decide to move. Hope things turn out better for you.

    Wait... was he saying you should only come in on days? I was hired by the night manager at my club (well, one of them) and I got the hint from their list of do-nots that I was to stick to the night shift. My friend told me that after awhile a dancer can start showing up for day shift and skipping the "mandatory" weekends, but I seriously got the impression that for the first month or two it's expected to stay where they hired you to be. Is that not usually how it is?

    The best part is that, a) if it's wireless in any part of its transmission, some hacker could pick it up, and b) if it's via Internet in any part of its transmission, some hacker could pick it up. In fact, any "friend" of management's anywhere in the world could be given access. For that matter, if a person knows what he's fishing for and the system hasn't been configured well, some security cameras are accessible on the Internet without a password. There are certain URL searches one can do on Google to uncover them. See http://100share.com/On-the-Net-Unseen-Eyes.htm for an explanation.

    Wouldn't a pair of cable cutters used in strategic locations be nice? Or some spilled sugared drink in the computer that's the hub? Or perhaps a computer nerd on public right of way outside the club intercepting the signal and letting everyone watch the show for free. I'd bet a week's pay that they don't have it secured worth a damn.

    Days. Nights. What does he know?

    This may be the tip of the iceberg for a club that has no effective management. Someone assumes he/she has power to hire in the absence of the hiring manager. The hiring manager, if that's really what it is, then chides you for working there and doesn't even follow up with the person that hired you? What a way to run a club. But typical of off-the-street goons who want to work in a strip club with no business or management experience. Last job was probably a bouncer and before that he swept floors in the county jail as a resident. Send the creep to 'charm school.'

    I guess there's no point in naming the club for others to know, as they all pretty much have inept or corrupt management anyway. I don't know how you dancers put up with that crap. But we all should be glad you can.

    It's just another step in your quest for the best club to work in. This one wasn't it, and now you know. Hope you regain your momentum very soon and get closer to the right club for you.

    I loved going to strip clubs; I actually made some friends there. Now things are different for the clubs and for me. As a result I am not as happy.

    Customers are not entitled to grope, disrespect, or rob strippers. This is their job, not their hobby, and they all need income. Clubs are not just some erotic show for guys to view while drinking.

    NOTE: anything I post here, outside of a direct quote, is my opinion only, which I am entitled to. Take it for what you estimate it is worth.

    Thanks, everyone. For the record, and just so everyone knows they already have enough girls, it was Cabaret in Wilmington (near Long Beach). An hour drive each way, and 60 miles' worth of gas that costs $2.79 a gallon. Grrrr...

    I need to get the hell out of L.A. for awhile. Anyone know where I could make a ton of money without a license in, say, April or May?

    did you try fritz in bellflower yet? you don't need a license there and some girls make tons of money....i didn't though i couldn't get comfortable there.

    go to hustler in westminster!! they let you work a while before getting your license, i think either a month or 3 months. i made the best money i've made in CA, working there. and it's a nice looking club too, compared to a lot of places.

    What didn't you like about Fritz? And what's so great about Hustler? Is it legal to work there without a license? How much did you make there? Feel free to PM me if you don't want to get into all that here!

    Holy fuck Yek! I am so sorry that happened to you. Why didn't you stay that night and prove to him why you were hired; hell at least you'd have made some extra cash to make up for expense of driving there. He was totally out of control acting like that but I know several club managers in CA that are that way. MAJOR CONTROL FREAKS! I would call the manager that hired you and ask him to make it right with the other manager (as obviously it wasn't your fault he hired you without the other managers clearance, maybe you can go back to days there until you can pick up another club.

    I know you probably don't want to but I know how it goes sometimes a manager comes in all pissed off that he wasn't "in the loop" and basically takes it out on someone else. Sometimes all they need is a little time to think logically and sometimes even hearing from you saying "I wish what happened hadn't taken place and surely the next time I will know who the real person is in charge." You certainly don't need to say it like that but make it pertaining to your situation and let them know that you wish the misunderstanding hadn't taken place because you were doing well with their club and thought you would be an asset to their business. Just my & I hope you find something soon!
