I need ideas. My club's GM has been visiting waaaaaaay too often for my liking lately. Nowadays he'll come in every night for a week, leave for a week or two, and then come right back and plant himself at the bar every night for another week. Just watching us for a week straight.
The problem is, when he's here, he tells the night managers that he wants every girl sitting with a customer at all times "so that no one walks out" (a.k.a. so the bar doesn't lose out on a single precious drink sale.) So this sets up a situation where every custy in the room soon realizes that they can get our time and company for free. Especially now that it's August and slow as fuck, and there are usually more dancers than customers on any given night. So no one spends anything. Why should they, when it's painfully obvious that we're being forced to give it away for free? Why buy dances when you can sit and drink and bore me to death without spending a single dollar on me? Forget about trying to sell VIP rooms...why would they spend $300 to have me all to themselves when they obviously can have me all to themselves right in their fucking chair while they nurse one beer and watch the stage for free all night?
Last time he was here, I went in the night before he got there and made $400.
Every night that he was here, and the managers were up our asses about sitting with every customer all the time even if they weren't spending a dime...I never left with more than $60. How stupid do you have to be to not realize that giving it away for free will make your club LESS money, not more? OK, maybe they sold a bit more alcohol...but I guarantee they would have made a lot more if customers actually had to buy dances and rooms to get our time and attention.![]()
So...he's coming in again next week. I've thought about working day shifts next week b/c he's only there at night, but I'm so *not* the dayshift type, and day shift here is known for being 47356294587 times dirtier. DOn't really want to deal with all that bullshit either. And I recently moved, so the only other club I work at is now 2 hours away. Otherwise, I'd totally "go on vacation" whenever the GM came in, and work at the other club until he's gone again.
Is there ANY way to make money in this situation, despite customers seeing that they can clearly get my time for free?![]()
