Naive strip club staff

Last night at Dancers Showclub in Indy, I had several bizarre experiences that made me feel totally out of sync with two members of the staff.
When my waitress approached me, I ordered a cocktail with Tanqueray gin. She asked me to say the name three times, particularly slowly the last time. I asked if she had ever heard of it, and she said she hadn't. She seemed very dubious about its existence, but I assured her the bartender would know what I was talking about. When she came back with my drink, I asked her if the bartender knew what I had been asking for. She might have been the subject of a little fun at the bar, since she rolled her eyes and very sheepishly said, "Yes."
We then had to settle the tab. The drink was $6. She took my $20, stood there with her head cocked to one side for about fifteen seconds and said, "How much do I owe you back?" She couldn't decide if it was fourteen or fifteen dollars. We discussed subtraction, number placement, etc.
Later, I was getting some privates from the most attractive girl in the club. She seemed to shy away from my sleeves, and I realized she was getting caught on my cufflinks, so I took them off. She got wide-eyed and said, "you didn't have to pull them off." I asked her what she was talking about, and she said, "your buttons--you didn't have to pull them off." I held up a cufflink to her face, and she told me that she didn't know what is was. I unfolded the cuff of my sleeve, and showed her that nothing had to be torn off--she thought that I had torn the cuff buttons off of my shirt, as she had never seen French cuffs before.
Well, the evening offered a lengthening experience to me, so hopefully it was a broadening experience to some of the staff.
Got something to say?
