    Default They asked me to bartend last night

    So i get to work last night and im in the dressing room doing my makeup when my manager walks in. Turns out we have a bachlor party that night and the bartender didnt show up. So he asks me to call my ex girlfriend to see if she can come in and she can't, so he says Jackie stay in your street clothes you are bartending. Mind you I have NEVER been a bartender in a bar (Even though that is my cover story with the family) Turns out i actually had a blast! The guys were all super sweet and tipped me well. A few of them had what i call bartender syndrom where they only want to pay attention to the chick with the most clothes on.. (More attainable perhaps??) Anyway all in all I kinda liked it more then dancing, and im sure i made more money then i would have trying to sell dances to these guys at their party. Best part was twords the end of the party all the chicks left so i'm standing around talking to the guys and they are all your too hot to bartend why dont you dance. So i told them i am a dancer and i pulled off my top and crawled on the bar and they all gave me all the ones they had left in their pocket.

    Weird part was after the party my manager approaches me and makes a comment like its ok for me to tip him for hooking me up. I nodded and told him i would take care of him at the end of the night..I asked my housemom what was an appropraite tip and she got all pissed saying i shouldnt be tipping HIM for ME doing him a favor. I ended up giving him 20 bucks and telling him to consider me for any future bartending openings. (I find out later that the girls who tip him are usally buying him off to keep his mouth shut about their various misbehaviors) OH well..

    I've kinda been burnt out on stripping latly and this was a nice break for me. I ended up going out on the floor and selling quite a few dances after the party too.

    Just wanted to share...
    Love you ladies

    I bartend and dance at my club, and I LOVE BARTENDING!!! I have bartended for years and would never just dance again..... I have said it on here before, with the skills of being a dancer, talking and flirting, and being behind the bar, you can really bank.. I can almost always make more behind the bar, you are less intimidating to shy guys, and a challenge to ego guys, so it works both ways...
    Go for it if you get the chance I bet you'll love it......

    I want to bartend! I agree, I woudln't have tipped him shit. You did him a favor and got him out of that pickle..I would've reminded him of that. Well on the brightside, at least you had an awesome night!

    I'm glad you had a good experience. Before getting through your post, I thought you were going to be pissed off from being asked to bartend. I'm glad you ended up making money. Your manager sounds like kind of a creep though.

    Back here in Australia there is a good way to bartend without having to have the low wages of bartending.... Skimpy/Lingere Bartending! I must admit that I do this once a year or so to give me a break from stripping and it is always lucrative. I get a decent per hour wage (more than if I was a normal bartender/bar wench) as well as tips..... and go back to dancing with re-newed appreciation!

    When the manager made the comment about you tipping him you should have made a comment about him paying YOU an hourly wage. All bartenders i know are paid by the hour on top of tips!!!

    Hmmm well that sounds like it could be a cool new job in the future.

    I know the guys get really into it if a girl from the audience gets up on stage. Imagine if one night you and the DJ staged this. The DJ says something about remember to tip the waitresses and bar tender isnt she a hottie blah blah. Then he suggests to the crowd, would you guys like to see her topless blah blah. Get the crowd going but pretend your shy, get up on the bar then milk it for all its worth. Cuz if it seems spontanious and wild im thinking there would be way more $ comming your way.

    lux44, is so right, we do this kind of thing every once in a while.. Eveyone knows I do dance, but even still, when attention in on what they can't have they will throw the money around to make themsevles the big shot..

    I know what you mean about paying attention to the chick with the clothes on. When I go to a SC and there is a hot waitress, I constantly imagine what she would look like on stage.

    not accusing you but...
    I have a bit of an issue with bartenders (who are always worse than waitresses) who don't properly understand their role - like, dancers --- bartenders. Do one or the other. It's completely unfair to make us compete against bartenders - I mean we're trying to tell these guys that our time and attention is worth 20 a song, and you are giving it away for dollars after their drinks. Waitresses can be the same; I mean we don't have to be in a conspiracy (and I don't think we should be) but we're all working the same ship. Dancers should do their best to help the waitresses and the bartenders maximize their tips (usually a conspicuous-inconspicuous glance at the tip amount will do it) and the waitresses and bartenders shouldn't be drastically underbidding us at our jobs; like be polite, be waitressy, be efficient, be flirty, be cute - but don't chat up the customers, and certainly don't start taking off your clothes.

    I used to do this with waitresses and bartenders in 3 of the 5 Daytona clubs I worked in. But what you do, to avoid pissing off the dancers (who understandably feel that it is money coming out of their pockets), is to wait until the end of the night. Like the last song, or nearly so. And you can only do it in the less-formal clubs, too. I know better than to even think of it in my present club.

    Meanwhile, all night you keep mentioning about how sexy the bartender or waitress is, how 'we'd all love to see her dance, wouldn't we', etc. The waitress or bartender will play along 'The DJ wants to put me onstage at the end of the night, what do you think?'

    The guys, instead of leaving to go to the other stripclub with 75 dancers--like they usually did--will either stick around or come back later. Last song or two of the night, the dancers all have their customers getting dances anyway, and the bartender/waitress gets to have fun and get a bunch of tips.

    There were two clubs I used to put them on during the night instead of at the end (or both, or either), but in those clubs the dancers were all for it, lol! Either to take a break from going up themselves, or because they were really close friends with them and wanted to see them up there themselves.

    At my club, I dance and bartend, and we all work together to help eachother....

    Because I also work dance shifts, I know what girls go through out there..
    When no one is tipping, I get them up to the stage, help them sell there drink quota.. Help sell champagne rooms for them.
    It depends on the bartender/waitress..
    I make a hell of alot behind the bar because I am a damn good fast efficient bartender, who is flirty, and dances around and has a high energy level that rubs off on others...
    I am not underbidding, or undermining I am doing my job in an entertainment biz, that I have found my niche. A guy may stay longer because he likes watching me run around behind the bar, after a while though, I am still behind the bar, so then his attention will go to a dancer who can sit next to him and give him dances...I am a good warm up for someone who may have only had a beer or 2, and then left, instead they stay, and in the end it is the girls that benefit from it

    Okay - Now I'll have to change my opinion that bartending is inherently evil.

    I'm glad you make good money; I have no problem with bartenders making good money. I would question your characterization that as a bartender you are in the "entertainment biz" but if you feel confident that you are not undermining the girls, and (probably a better measure) that the dancers would agree with that assessment, then I'm sure you're fine. But really - we all know what I'm talking about. The female bartender or waitress in stripclubs thinks it is her job to entertain the customer rather than serve them, and is doing it for 2 dollars on each drink. It makes our job harder, and it is undercutting us - especially when they are cute.

    I know the type you are talking about, we have a few bartenders, who are like this.
    Our "club", as it is a neighborhood dive, is a little different then cooperate or bigger classer clubs... One high end club I worked at, bartenders could do a dance for a customer for 100.00, they only kept 25.00 of that, the rest going to the club, that to me is just greed on the clubs part..
    The way our dive bar is set up is so based or drink sales for the girls, and you get your bartending shifts by what your numbers are, so yes to this place being an entertaining bartender plays a big part in keeping my shifts I want for the last 5 years.
    I have worked with bartenders here that have hustled customers more then any dancer I have ever seen, from how much they can get for someone to see a flash of their tits, to the sob stories and so on.. To me that is undermining the girls..
    Me I make it fun and energectic when I am back there, all the while makeing sure no one is with out good service first, so yes, to me I make it entertaining ,it should be. Guys are out to have fun forget life for a while.. If I can add to that from behind the bar then I will...

    That's the way it was at the two clubs I put them up even during the middle of the night sometimes. The dancers never minded--actually sometimes it would be their idea, lol! They would line the tip rail and cheer her and give her dollars.

    It only works in an atmosphere where everyone is helping each other out and working together (except usually the manager, but what else is new, lol). Both of those clubs were smaller. The other club, which was actually pretty big, I would wait until the end of the night--but again, none of the dancers had a problem with it. It was another incidence of a 'team effort' kind of atmosphere, though--the only time I have seen it happen in a bigger club (though sometimes you'll see some of that feeling where I am now).

    I have seen clubs where it would never work, though, and worked in a few, probably 2-3 of the 8 clubs I've worked in, where I would never do it. And I have dated dancers who would bitch like hell about waitresses in their club that were practically giving guys lapdances for a fucking dollar tip. Not cool...
