Additional Information
Blush is the most micro-managing money hungry club i have EVER worked at… and i i currently work at 3 deja vu owned clubs, to shed some light on this perspective. Also, pittsburgh is the worst city that i have ever worked in. --------------------
Ok, the positives. if you do have the misfortune of working in pittsburgh, Blush is the money making club. A lot of girls bank here. there is a very high earning potential. However, IMO, it takes a certain attitude and a high level of patience to reach this potential-- i didn't; i made more money in clubs with lower earning potentials. The club is more consistently packed than pretty much any club i have ever seen. its a small club, in an old hotel.---------------------
It is nude, the dances are two way contact (no kitty touching allowed obviously). on stage, you are up for 3 songs, first clothed, second topless, 3rd mandatory nude. you share the stage with another girl. then one of the two girls is sent to the cage stage on the side for another 3. you will make good money on stage here, but it sucks sharing it with another girl… a lot of girls are not very creative in their dance moves and the entire stage set is spread eagle pussy shots.. nothing wrong with showing a little puss, but its nice to use a bit of variety. and if you are sharing the stage with a dancer who is raunchier than some (some girls are raunchy) then some customers will get saucy when you don't offer the same services from the stage. honestly, just tell the customers they are at the tip rail and are obligated to tip each song, they will grudgingly tip you. when they didn't i would just move away and put my hand over my lady bits and my other arm over my boobs and basically make sure they didn't see anything fun. expect 15-100 dollars per stage set.-------------------
Dances are 25$, you keep 15. they are very easy to sell. They are nude, although management wont make you go nude if you don't want to. customers are allowed to touch you, although not the kitty. Pittsburgh customers are horribly grippy and are rude. Oh, and they smell bad. Blush is a teeny club, and steelers fans load up on cheap beer at the game, then have no reservations about farting in the tiny crowded club. its gross. And the farting is not the worst part, expect them to be mentally rude. and expect to swat a lot of hands away from your pussy. ugh. i honestly hated it here, if you read through my posts during this time, i was at my grumpiest. ----------------
VIP rooms: wow what a RIPOFF (for you). half hr is 175, you keep 90. But wait! Your customer decides to pay credit! Your customer pays 192.50 and you keep 81$, the DJ keeps 5, meaning the club keeps 106.50$. So yea, Blush thinks they deserve more than half on an already underpriced room for YOUR nude entertainment, and YOUR sales work, and your tolerance of bullshit. The hour is 350, you keep 180. They don't help you make your sales. The VIP rooms are in the old hotel rooms, there is a cheap little CD player in them from the 90s with a cd, the CD players are sometimes belligerent and you will have to toggle with it a bit to make it work. Also, i initially thought the club was completely clean. Then i found out there are no cameras in the room, so i am reassessing this thought. You have to keep the hotel room doors 12 inches open. Now, on the second floor, the vip host is within ear shot. However, when the second floor fills up they put you on the 3rd floor. And there is basically nobody up there to watch out for your safety. and no cameras. -----------------------
the house moms are bitchy, with some being downright cunts. one of them was alright i guess. The DR is on the second floor, you cannot hear the dj from here so you don't know when you are on stage. Before your first song the DJ is supposed to call the house mom to tell her to warn you, sometimes he doesn't. Which brings me to another point, the dj is shitty and pretty much refused to play my music… if you dance to alternative stuff you are pretty much SOL… also he often forgot my name. So yea, the dj will often not even call the house mom before your first set, and then after you are supposed to be on stage he will call and be like "so and so is already supposed to be on stage." then you get to run down the stairs in your heels to make it on stage for a rude crowd of people and dance to music that you don't like. FUNNNNN. There are two bathrooms in the dressing room, bot with half doors and you have to ask permission to use the back bathroom. Blush treats you like children and assumes that if they give you an inch of privacy, you will take a mile and do a lot of blow off the toilet seat. so yea, expect this type of treatment from the management. also, regardless of the situation downstairs or your mood, you are not allowed to hang out in the dressing room. ----------------
So yea, i think blush really needs to review the legal definitions of independent contractor. this club seems to have no understanding of the difference between an independent contractor and an employee. oh, except for the fact that they can charge Independent contractors a house fee. they understand that part really well. but the other parts, i.e. we can entertain as we want, we don't HAVE to work while we are there since they cant tell use how to work, etc. they are pretty confused on.------------------
The girls are really nice. a lot are a trainwreck though, i saw lots of crying when i worked here. i think this is largely due to the asshole, sexual assault-y customers and disrespectful management. --------------------
Oh yea, blush bucks (funny moony)-- don't count on getting your money back in the near future! At the end of the night, you go to the office to cash these in, and they have a certain amount of cash they will give out and after it runs out you are SOL. you have the option of then leaving your blush bucks in an envelope and trusting it with the management or trying your luck the next time you work. I have heard horror stories from the girls about management dipping into their bush bucks when left overnight… who knows if this is true. i have also heard horror stories from girls who kept coming back to get their blush bucks cashed in, and it took them like 3 weeks to get it done. The girls tend to rack up a lot of them, and management doesn't give a fuck whether they get cashed in a timely fashion.-------------------
Man i fucking hated this club.
