I hate being wrong
Ugh so I totally lost my cool at work the other day and now I have to go in today and apologize. I've been super stressed at work sinse we seem to have between 1-2 new girls starting everyday and there is just not enough money to go around. Wednesday was fairly slow and twice I was talking to a customer when a girl, lets call her B stepped on my toes. The first time she literally drug the customer away from the bar to a table while I was still sitting there and the second customer I got paged to the Dj booth and within 2 seconds she was on his lap etc. We got called back to the dressing room and I literally went crazy on her- not physical just yelling. The manager told me to get dressed and go the f home. I called manager 2 after I got home to find out if I was fired for good and he said no but I cannot let my personal problems affect my job. Um hello my job is my problem right now. Crap it just pisses me off that I have to suck it up and go back to work today and be the good little stripper. So I need you ladies to make me feel better and tell me I am not the only dancer who has ever gotten psycho at work.

Basically, I'd get stuck with Tootsies and Solid Gold. :( Not that I have any interest in stockpiling dollars, but the immediate effect would be just that. Maybe I could trade them for something else like a doctor who will prescribe the medicine that I need.
Of course the business did pick up a bit as it always does, but the cash just isn't there at the level if should be, and that's consitent with the pink site comments and what I am seeing in multiple clubs.
Dancers then start to panic and they take it out on other dancers and sometimes (very unwisely) on customers. In my case, I have at least 8 to 10 dancers that this year alone I've spent a min of 1000 dollars each on and sometimes considerably more, with none ATFs of any type, and when they are desperate they go where they know some cash is, and when that cash is not forthcoming, they can get very testy and sometimes a bit nasty
The winter months after Christmas are going to get very interesting in this business.
Is this a new class of stripper, or has it been like this a long time, or is it some other factor I'm not thinking of right now?
I've had a little frustration when I told strippers "maybe later" or a flat "no" but nothing like what SuperDude mentioned... Personally that would make me want to get up and leave.
There are some very nice clubs and some very nice strippers out there. If that's what you prefer (and not everyone does) it's worth looking for.
If I wish to genuinely say something which means, "Not right now but maybe later," I will go into a long harangue that goes something like, "You're very attractive, and depending on how the evening goes for me, I really might like to buy some dances or just flirt and chat, I dunno, maybe. But right now I'm waiting to do a couple of other things, need to speak to my waitress, ya know, usual stuff. Please do come back by after an hour has passed, or more, if you have the opportunity."
Thing is, dancers are starting to get a 'tude about rejection. I have stormed out, on more than one occasion. Tonight I intend to return to the scene of my last storming-outing, which happened about three months ago, to see whether I'm remembered and whether the behavior has improved. If the entitled little princessy pulls the same shit on me again I'll make sure her manager knows why I'm leaving this time.

Re: No point working in December
Um... yeah... december sucks monkey balls here too.
Last night and tonight... 62 girls when we normally run 40-50.
The bitches looking for that extra Christmas money are coming in to suck some extra dick... and therefore the VIP has an indefinite waiting list all the time. Pooh. Pooh. Pooh.
Tonight was doo doo.
Fuck the cheap assholes. Fuck boys who won't tip.
This is the time where I really wish management were more picky on whom they hire. I'd rather 40 bangin girls then 40 bangin girls +22 fat ass ugly bitches cutting into my money.

"Strip Club Customer Shi..t" we might call it, and extra time doesn't hurt nor does having boatloads of extra cash, however some us are always trying to discern trends sometimes just for kicks (even nonsensical ones) -and at other times, for example with the real estate crash/downturn - which is old news to be me because I was posting quite regularly on HousingBubble sites 1 and 2 back in 2004 and 2005. Staying ahead of the curve can be fun (e.g. in ref to strppers) and (profitable) for example in the case of real estate or other kinds of investments
By the way, I missed figuring out the telecom/tech crash back in 2001, and instead of doing the correct thing and dumping and moving into money markets, I sold certain techs and then reinvested into optical networking companies after they lost approx 80% of their value, a big mistake because most enventually lost about 95% to 98% of their value off their peaks -and didn't recover for years
Also, strip clubs are generally configured so that their labor costs are somewhat self-sustaining, usually handled via a complicated web of tip outs and houses fees of various kinds in and among dancers, bouncers, DJs, housemoms, managers, etc
Dance fees (paid by dancers) to the house? - of course that's an open issue, but I believe many clubs can still make it with even a major hit on those fees
So far strip clubs have stayed ahead of the curve because most dancers on a daily basis can still meet tip out/house fees - however its hard to tell what would happen if earning below those min levels became commonplace, then the strip clubs have some big labor overhead issues they must confront
