Breakdown of Fees and Fines
Saturday, December 21, 2019 2:47 AM
I worked here for a night to check it out while in Detroit and now understand why dancers charge so much for their services. It isn't "GPS". It's that the club has a charge or a fine for almost anything and everything entertainers do. It's extremely expensive to work at this club as an entertainer. Selling a service for $200 or less doesn't even cover full tip out. The high fees are structured so that girls have to charge so much just so they can turn a profit and leave with something.
DJ $20
Mom $10
Freelance fee $75
Valet $8
VIP/House fee $100 after three songs
House fee and DJ need to be paid by 1:30 a.m. otherwise there is a fine tacked on of $50.
Entertainers are charged a $50 fine if they are late to stage and $100 if they miss stage.
There is no automatic skipping stage if somebody is in the VIP. If the dancer is more than three songs away from being on stage and wants to skip, it's a $50 skip fee. If the entertainer was called to stage within three songs, it's a $100 skip fee.
If entertainers are caught FaceTiming, on a phone call, or just on their phones way too much, they are fined $100. I was told being on our phones a little here and there is okay, but not excessively.
We are fined $100 if we sit on the countertops in the locker room.
If we are on schedule and miss a shift, it's $100 fine that has to be paid the next time we work. Schedules require a minimum of three days/nights. They can be any nights or days out of the week.
Leaving a shift early is $100 fine paid to the DJ.
Showing up before 6:30 p.m. is a fine, but I don't remember what the fine is. They do this because it's a small locker room and they have a lot of day shift and night shift girls coming and going and they want to minimize clutter in the locker room.
Day shift is not allowed to stay over and both shifts are completely separate of each other.
Normal lap dances are $30 per song and tableside dances are allowed at $15 a song.
Any dancer that is not on stage for 7 p.m. stage review is automatically late and it's a $50 fine.
If we're on stage for that review, we have to stay on the floor and entertain whatever customers are left over from day shift and are not allowed to return to the locker room again until 8 p.m. If we leave the floor, it's a $50 fine I was told.
I missed the part about the late fees after 8 p.m., but it does go up... I just forget the increments.
There's a sign in the locker room that says we are forbidden from discussing "sex talk" while on the floor. I assume that's meant to be between dancers so that nobody can overhear. Everyone in the locker room was quiet about what they do and nobody asked questions. I got the feeling a lot of the girls I worked with knew each other and were all regular entertainers there.
Oh, there's also a $50 fine if we are not up for final review at the end of the night. The exception to this, of course, is if the entertainer is in VIP doing a dance or whatever.
Flight Club makes it almost impossible to work as a non extras dancer while trying to take some kind of profit home. The high prices that everybody complains about aren't necessarily the girls having "golden pussy syndrome", but moreso so the club can get paid and so we can leave with some income. If a girl is a freelancer and late for her shift, she already owes the bar almost $300 as soon as she walks in.
Hopefully this better explains the high prices at this club.
Also, other than cocaine, I didn't see much drug use. Girls aren't allowed to lock the bathroom in the locker room, which minimizes drug use. There also weren't a lot of extremely drunk girls, and those who were drunk held their composure very well. Also, not saying which girls (but I do know at least six) have pimps/squads. I know the girls from one of the squads are with their pimp by choice. I actually followed this pimp on Instagram and they all live in the same house. I follow those girls on Instagram as well and they seem really happy with their lives outside of work.
