So I haven't been stripping for almost 7 months. I've been working in a restaurant attached to a hotel. Its pretty upscale, but we have a group of customers we open for early because they're good clients of the hotel and they work for a trucking company. Every few weeks different groups of them come for training to stay.
This morning (6:30 in the morning mind you) I give one of my trucker tables their bill and tell them to write down their names and room numbers on it, because the set-up they have with the hotel gives them free breakfasts (at a reduced price with free drinks and an automatic 15% tip--so like 60 cents per person woo-hoo!). This guy responds with well why don't you give me your name and room number too.
I was so annoyed, but when I was stripping this type of comment was totally par for the course. My automatic reaction was something like "Um, you're not talking to me this way" and walking away.
I guess, I was just annoyed to hear some random old man express his fantasy to me outside of the club. I think I was also confused in terms of what to do about it to because I was at work and if he had taken it any further I probably could have gotten him in trouble.
Its like with stripping, you're signing up to some degree to deal with this type of thing. I bring you coffee, I bring you food, you sexually harass me. And for 60 cents? Hell no. $60 , yeah, you can make a dumbass comment and I'll just roll my eyes in the dressing room while I count my money.
