Strip Club Peeves

We've all got our peeves when it comes to strip clubs. Here's my list, though I'm sure I'm forgetting a thing or two. What are yours?
1) A dancer who demands a tip—sometimes substantial—after a private dance. If it's part of the cost of the dance, tell me upfront. A tip is at the customer's discretion. If the dancer isn't getting enough in tips, there may be a reason.
2) Dancers who work the crowd demanding tips after getting off the stage. This is sometimes done no matter where the customer is sitting—at the stage, in the middle of the room, or at the bar. Even customers who just walk in aren't safe. As mentioned above, if a dancer isn't getting enough in tips, there may be a reason. Check the attitude.
3) Long delays between dancers on stage. At some clubs, it's routine to wait five minutes or longer between dancers. I understand if there are only two or three dancers working it's difficult to keep the action going. But if the owners are scheduling it that way because it's not a busy time of day, that's a different story. They're telling the customers that it's not worth showing up.
4) Dancers who spend way too much time telling me their problems. I'm fine, to a point, if a dancer wants to open up. But one time, a dancer spent most of the VIP time telling me her problems. What a waste, and a sure way to lose business, no matter what she looks like.
5) Out-of-date web sites. Don't advertise specials that aren't in effect any longer. And if you have a schedule on-line, keep it current. And what's the point of having a Facebook page if you don't post anything?
