How do striking strippers survive financially?

I thought CA ruled they were employees yet interview club owner referred to them as independent contractors. Anyway, however they got by during COVID lockdowns is how they’ll make do under a strike. However, might be a good time to get OTC phone numbers in case they do strike.

There were strikes before unions with strike funds. How are strippers a special case?

@PhredJohnson: "I thought CA ruled they were employees yet interview club owner referred to them as independent contractors. "

The conflict in these cases usually centers around the fact that club management wants to *classify* dancers as "independent contractors", but they tend to *treat* them as employees. Something most labor laws do not permit.

I think it’s the not-so-striking ones that struggle. The hot ones do fine. 😎
