Google This! Cell Phones and Strip Clubs
avalons07
This is a recent phenomenon that I have noticed cropping up within the last two to three years now that cell phones are more prevalent. I have even had clients that I no longer choose to dance for simply because I feel that I wish to be the center of attention while with them. They just can't seem to peel themselves away from their phones. I realize that business can and does need to be conducted within the paramters of the club when guys come in during lunch breaks. I also realize that as dancers we encounter a variety of guys from a variety of walks of life.
Certainly, one can argue what better place than to choose a gentleman's club to discuss business. However, there are a small number of gentlemen that aren't very mindful in terms of where they are and ALWAYS seem to be attached at the hip with their cellie or even worse, and I am not kidding laptops. I am not speaking of alcohol vendors, either. I have been told by a few gents that they find 'solace' and peace in clubs which arguably early during the day when the doors first open I could somewhat understand.
Even funnier, for me personally, is walking up to the guy that is wearing a bluetooth but you don't see it because he has it on the other side and at first you think that he is talking to himself. I have actually had that one happen a couple of times. It wasn't a big deal, it worked to my advantage though.
What just absolutely makes me laugh out loud is that some men will actually take phone calls while out on the dance floor with the music blaring straight into the phone with such verocity it would be easier for them to be heard taking off from a C-130 aircraft at 3000 ft going skydiving.
The reality is that technology is here to stay, and that is a fact of life lving in the twenty first century. So next time you go to the club, please just try to be polite and do your best to use etiquette. Remember we are here for your entertainment. If we see you constantly on your phones, we are going to take that as a don't disturb sign! We ladies realize that this works both ways. Guys, please note. If you see an absence of ladies or find that the ladies are in the corner with one another on their electronic devices, they too may be sending messages to try and get business in. Like Vince Vaughn said in The Internship, I am on the line!
Happy Lapping!

The reverse is also TRUE. Dancers who CAN'T manage to look away from their phones or quit making/taking calls. I guess the only way to get them to stop talking on the cell phone is to have part of your anatomy DEEP down their throats!!
1. The club quits putting ugly dancers on stage
2. The dancers get off THEIR phones and actually come over and ask for a dance

Don't HOLD your breath motorhead. LOL
It may be rude for custies to use the phone at a SC – but I think it is extremely poor business etiquette to allow dancers (i.e. employees) to have their heads buried in their phone while ignoring customers for what seems to be extended periods of time (not a quickie message).
I had not really noticed – but it appears to me that in certain clubs dancers may not be allowed to have their cells on the floor and their heads stuck in it – now that I think about it – there have been a few clubs where I don’t recall this happening at all and a few where it seems pervasive.
I have walked up and sat down next to dancers that are texting and just sat quietly next to them. When they look over at me with that wtf look I ask them if they are sending me dirty text messages. Some say yes...ss
However, I see dancers with on their phones all the time. One dancer at Dreamgirls Sodo never gets off of her phone, unless she's going outside for a smoke break.
So, as many above have commented, don't tell me to not be on my cell if I'm texting my ATF that I'm in the club, when most of the dancers are ignoring me, or are awash in an LCD glow.
Mentioned this to my fave a few minutes later. Sure enough shortly after this there she is again.
Me and my fave didn't find it a flattering look and wondered wtf? Is she there to work or not?
The music blaring. The only thing worse is on the phone in the toilet. (like Minnow said) I make sure I flush the toilet. I would be a little embarrased to explain that to the person on the other line.
