Memorial Day Closed!!

DrumEsq

Missouri

So I came into town for a flight tomorrow morning. I decided to hit up the clubs. I visit my two usual closed and lots are empty and clubs are closed. I think to myself what a bad decision by the club owner.
I decide to head to my backup club. It’s open and many cars in the lot. I walk in and sit at the bar. The best tender is the usual door girl I know. I look around and there are 22 customers (counted), 5 non- dancer staff, one dancer on a stage and no dancers on the floor. In a panic the bartender is on the phone and cannot wait on me. There ends up being one more dancer that emerges.
The bartender finally gets to me and says they are so busy and they did not expect it to be this busy. I ordered a drink. Then I tell her that her two primary competitor clubs are closed today. She says “THEY ARE??”
Should they be shocked? Wouldn’t they try to take advantage of this? Is it fair to the staff and dancers to be open?
