so heres my story.
this week i need to make a lot of money. i know i know, we -all- always need to make a lot of money. anyway, i'm saving up for my trip to coachella in april and on top of that, my wisdom teeth are irritating me, so i know i'm going to have to do something about it sooner or later. hopefully i can wait till after coachella (it's a month away) but we'll see. what i -don't- want to happen, is for my teeth to become a priority and for me to have to spend everything i've saved on them and wind up missing something i've wanted to do for the last 7 years (coachella).
but i really digress.....
so i go into work today with the mentality that i'm going to work as hard as possible, hussle, stay positive, etc. unfortunately it's been really slow lately and all my efforts are for nothing because the place is dead. by the time i have 2 hours left in my shift, i've only made 40 bucks. in walks this guy who (i'll make a long story short) really likes me and a friend of mine who works with me. he winds up spending a lot of cash on us to watch us dance on/with eachother, etc. the three of us had a lot of fun and quite a few drinks. i had much less than them because #1 i'm very carefull about getting too drunk at work and #2 i'm good at fake-drinking.
anyway.... over the course of a couple hours he wound up giving each of us about 500 bucks and spent a load on drinks and tipping the girls on stage (he'd give us money to go tip them). so i was pretty happy at the end of my shift. at that point i'm thinking "well that's a good start to the week" of course, i need to have like 4 more days like that, but whatever. i thank him, he seems totaly nice/appreciative. she and i leave.
a 1/2 hour later i get a call from my friend. she tells me that the fucking guy told our manager that we "ripped him off" by telling him things were mosre expensive than they were (we didn't) and that we promised him we'd go back to his house and fuck him.
WHAT???????????????? i have -never- ever ever ever even ALLUDED to that being a possibility with ANY customer. he asked us if we wanted to go to a bar afterwards and i told him no "i have to go pick up my brother from his work.. his car broke down" (it's a lie... but whatever) and she told him "no way, my boyfriend would be pissed!" so i KNOW there's no way he could have surmised any "hook up" was going to happen.
he was having a blast and willingly giving out money. there was no fucking scam. he just probably started to sober up and had some buyers remorse. what kind of asshole says that to the manager though? i could have gotten FIRED over that shit. of course the manager didn't believe him, but that's not the point. i don't appreciate someone fucking with my job like that. what if i was a new girl? even if i didn't get fired for it, it would have made a realllly bad first impression.
and... not that it makes a big diff... but the guy is LOADED. it's not like spending that money "broke" him or anything.
argggg. i'm so irritated.
