I often visit black dives which are often small clubs with not much seating and even less “good seatingâ€.
What I mean by “good seating†is the few seats in a smallish club which are good for getting dances.
I am often frustrated when I go to many a small club when I see dancers lounging and taking up a good chunk of the good dance seats. This often happens when the club is kinda slow and the dancers are just sitting around - but if frustrates me when they take up the good seats jus to sit there and then a custy cannot get a dance in one of the good seats.
I was recently at a black dive and I asked a dancer that had asked me if I wanted to dances if she could ask one of the dancers that was just lounging in one of the good seats; if we could borrow the seat for a dance. The dancer that was lounging put a face as if we were asking her for a kidney and said why we couldn't get a dance at one of the other empty seats (the crappy seats) – my dancer explained to the dancer that I preferred that seat (a high-top) for my dances – the dancer eventually gave up the seat but w/ some serious attitude.
Do any of you ever encounter this problem – i.e. dancers taking up the good seats and just sitting/lounging there. IMO employees should not be taking up seats; especially in a small club; and also have an attitude about it when a customer requests that seat for dances – not to sit himself; - but to get dances.
Not in the same way PC, but at TL, there's one spot that all the dancers prefer and it's an unstated rule that if somebody's sitting in that spot but not getting a dance, they gotta move it when somebody is getting a dance. There's none of this "I was here first" shit. That's the test drive chair. Get a dance or move.
