    Default schedules**rant**

    I know that I have comented on this topic before but I just cant take it the my club is becoming so out of control with it. They want all the girls to adhere to a very strict schedule. Which is fine and I understand why but they arent being flexible at all. Im a dancer because of the money and the flexibility. Im a mother of two and a wife this isnt my life its just my job. When my kids are sick I need to be home and not have to worry about being punished for it by owing tons of back house fees.

    So the manager/owner has decided that he dosent want to take care of the schedule any more so he is going to put the responsibility on one of our floormen. And when we dont come in it comes out of his paycheck. How ridiculous is that? This is a really sweet guy and I dont want to do that to him because there are times when I cant come in. And these poor guys dont make much anyways. Hes going to end up owing the club.

    Theyre just a bunch of greedy assholes Im just about fed up with all of this bullshit!!!

    That sucks he can' be flexible for some of the dancers- especially ones with family. I had to leave one club because working every single day of the week with a family isn't something I could do.

    Thats bullshit!!!!

    Seriously its not on! When I did rostering at my old club, I wias a total bitch about people ditiching shifts at this last minute, BUT sick kids were always a ok excuse, it was the hungover/drugfucked/shift at other club/cant be bothered excuses I couldnt stand. Most of hte girls were reliable, so I knew if they called in at the last minute, it was a genuine excuse (and they generally felt guilty about the late notice, so I knew I could call them in if someone else called in sick, another night)

    Its really unreasonable of them to fine you for not coming in, there should be a time limit (ie if you call in with less than 4 hours notice - depending on how long it would take for a replacement to get into work) but if you are giving decent notice AND (this was the big thing for me) are reliabe 99% of the time, you shouldnt be fined!

    I don't mind giving the club a schedule and sticking to it. We have to maintain a schedule but my club is pretty liberal. You are suppossed to work 4 shifts but they let me and others shedule 2. They won't usually fine you if you call off before your shift as long as the reason is understandable and it doesn't happen all the time. Its easy to change your schedule and request days/weeks off as long as you give a least a weeks notice. I could NOT work at a club like that. I worked one night at a club where you HAD to work 5 nights a week and weekends were mandatory. So you had to work Fri and Sat and really only got to pick 3 days on your schedule. You still had to pay for call offs also. WTF!!! Definetely couldnt work there. Whats the point of paying a club if you can't even make your own damn schedule???

    Ugh! No way that would fly with me. Its different when you have kids. They should realize you are balancing a family with this and give you some leeway. Boo.

    I think they should be more flex when u have kids or if you are really sick and just cant do it because who wants a sick dancer around rite? lol Kids are always more important.

    I don't think it should be more important because you have children. ANY legitimate reason is good. What if your partner got really ill and can't drive home? They're family too and just as valid as children. Just because someone DOESN'T have kids, doesn't mean they don't have a great reason to call out. Just saying.

    Doing that to their floorguy is so illegal. Have him call a lawyer -- they'd probably love a case like that . . .

    That's what I was going to say!! U said it first.

    Anyway, I don't understand why they are taking it out of the floorguy's paycheck. Is that legal?
