    Default Snapping at customers

    Last night I asked a guy VERY nicely if he'd like a dance. It was packed starting at 11, so there was no incentive to spend 5 or 10 minutes trying to get someone to get a dance when you can just move on to one of the 200 other guys and get a yes in under a minute. When it's wall to wall people, my dance hustle is to make sure they see me coming, lean in close, touch them (like a hand on their thigh or wrist), ask how they are, ask their name, and ask for a dance. It takes 30 seconds, tops. I play the numbers game. I guess this guy was REALLY offended by being asked if he'd like a dance without kissing his ass for 10 minutes. SORRY DUDE. I CAN JUST MOVE ONTO THE NEXT ONE AND MAKE MY MONEY.

    The guy looks at me and snidely says "You're not my type. Sorry". This kid must have been 18 and he had a crustache! He was showing off for his friends. I snapped back "Well, you're no fucking Prince Charming".

    I usually am not nasty to customers, but it makes me so pissed that guys who have to pay for the attention of women feel entitled to insult us. He could have said "No thanks" and that would have been the end of that.

    SUCK MAH BALLS CAPTAIN CRUSTACHE.

    Crustache.
    Knowing me and my big mouth, I probably would have told him the pubic hair on his upper lip wasn't working for him.

    Eeewww! A "crustache"?! Face pubes, yay! Lol. I would have laughed and moved on to get a dance as fast as possible, in your face, jerk. I mean, that was pretty rude!

    What exactly is a crustache? Facial pubes? Technically, crotch and face pubes are all secondary sex characteristics. Ok, me so dorky.

    As far as the guy, I don't think he did anything wrong by saying you are not his type. His attitude did suck however. Its only going to get worse with age, sadly...

    I'm guessing it was the snide way he said it rather than the actual words. Facial expressions and inflection can say SO much more than the words coming out......lol, actually that's something we all put into practice in our own work. How ironic.

    Crustache........I don't think I want to know.

    makes "maybe later" sound like music to your ears.

    I hate those "sell me" guys. Come on a Monday night and we'll shoot the shit. We don't get many chances for when the customers have to kiss our ass for our attention, so milk it!

    At least you jsut got sassy with him and didn't try to assault him or pour his drink on him (a certain someone I know did that last night to a guy.)

    A customer told me on sat night that i didn't spend enough time before i popped the question. If he knows its gonna end in "wanna dance" then let's not waste both of our time and just get to the point. there were a few hundred in the club like what u said in your post so why would i waste time stroking his ego before i asked.

    then his friend goes "what it costs money for a dance you must be joking". i just looked at him and said sarcastically "yeah im joking" as i pulled his friends arm in the direction of the dance area.

    jerks.

    A guy like that isn't likely to buy a dance from any dancer anyway. That type is just looking to get dancers to pay attention to him for free. It's passive aggresive bullshit. The ones who pull it are just assholes not worth even a second thought.

    you know we are all going to die eventually so even thinking about a piece of shit like this guy is a waste of time. i do sympathize tho. some people can be real pieces of shit to us. we are just girls trying to make money to survive and better our lives. they are guys who come into our space and some are cool but some like to play games with us. like i said life is way too short. there are good customers out there who will get ten dances or a VIP from you and tell you youre beautiful while they hand you their hard-earned money. fuck everyone else.

    In *some* guys' defense, I can see how it feels impersonal to them. My strategy is to take 3 minutes instead of 30 secs-1min almost always, because I could give you $$ for everytime I get guys who say to me "yr so real! I love that! It's always "wanna dance? okay fine." I just go up to them with an original line, or make fun of them, or say something crazy and then laugh, and then pop the question...this really only takes a few minutes to convince them I'm really into them for them or at least that I'm "different."

    Also, once you snag these guys they tend to be the ones who buy lots of dances, and remember you next time.

    Substance for substance is all I'm saying I guess.

    But yea that was a horrible situation and I feel you lady.

    I had a young guy do this to me the 1st week I was club dancing...I was politely introducing myself & he said, "OK NOW GO AWAY..." It hurt back then but I was a newbie...Now I curse them mentally & maybe step on their foot if given half a chance...LOL
    Crustache, ha ha. That's classic.

    I hate rude assholes. I have guys wave me off, had one guy respond with "fuck no" after being asked for a dance, and my personal favorite those bastards that just stare at you when you ask them, as if you had the nerve to even think they wanted to dance with you. I usually will tell them they are rude and that they should die of gonnoreah and rot in hell.

    Yes, I too feel the same way as you do but in the defense of us dancers: If a customer is looking for someone to shoot the breeze and shit (As Emily pointed out) then yea they need to come into the club on a Monday or Tuesday, when the club is slow. My time is extremely valuable on the weekends. I worked friday competing against about 65-75 girls. If I would've taken the time out to sit and chat for 3min w/ folks I would've been walking out of the club w/ peanuts.

    I can't believe that! I'm always totally polite when I ask for a dance, and if they say "No thanks" or "Maybe later" then I'm like "Ok, thanks anyways" and smile. How hard is it to say "No thanks"?!

    I'd be a good stand up comedian after learning how to insult someone on the spot when they're rude to me. Stripping is training for SO many things.

    My most bad ass moment of the week? I asked some old guy for a dance and he said "No, you remind me of my sister" and I snapped back in front of his friends "That's ok, because you remind me of my grandfather". Dude looked like Gerald Ford, I swear.

    Exactly! If you want attention, come in when the dancer ratio isn't one dancer to 20 guys.

    I wouldn't feel bad about it as long as it rarely happens. I am so thankful to have a job where I can tell someone to fuck off if I want. Sometimes you have to in order to keep your sanity at work!
