    Angry Club gets half?????

    Im really new to this and the club im working in now is my very first club so Im not sure about this... Its $20 for a topless table dance, the custy buys a dance ticket from the bartender, hands it to the dancer of his choice, he gets a 5 minute (timed) topless dance, and then the dancer claims the ticket after the dance at the bar. Now my problem is that we only get half of that money ($10) and its sooooooooo hard to sell another dance because usually the guy will buy only 1 ticket because he doesnt want to stop and go back up to the bar.... its a pain to keep going up to the bar and buying another ticket, plus it ruins the mood/zone they get in. Is this type of behavior norm in clubs or is this as much of a pain in the ass as i think it is??? And does the house usually take so much out of the private dances???

    Take it out back and bury it!

    At both clubs I work at, dances are $20 and the dancer only keeps half. The only thing that's different is that if the customer wants another dance after the first one, we can get the $20 from him and give it to the bar after the second dance. Then they write out another ticket for that dance. Maybe ask the manager if it is ok for you to do this, so that you don't have to keep getting out of the booth to get more tickets if the customer wants more dances after the first one.
    Take the road less traveled- just make sure you have a map.

    You'd think they'd want to make it easier to buy multiples if they're getting a cut of each dance. That's a pretty bad business decision. I would book it to another club as quickly as possible.

    Definitly not all clubs but I guess sum. Mine isn't like that at all. You pay up front and get dances in the V.I.P room for how ever mintues You want. If the guy want's more mintues all he gotta do is ring a buzzer!

    And at My club You pay $20 to work there. Then You get all the money from You'r dances but the club charges an extra $5 for them selfs that a coustomer has to pay....

    Nope. I learned the hard way that clubs that take half are BAD NEWS. Don't do it- they obviously hve no respect for the dancers to extort that much from them.

    agreed. I don't have nearly as much travel expierience as Scarlett, but all the clubs I've worked in have only gotten 15-20% of my earnings after housefees, tipouts, etc. I think if they're requiring you to give more than that, it's time to find a new place.
