Whether to repeat w/ the dancer in question – unless you plan to change the way you club; then no b/c good-chance you’ll have the same issue; and not only w/ her; but if she indeed over-counts; foolish-of-you to think she is the only-one that does so – also; you already accused her of over-counting you w/o u being sure; so u may have “poisoned the waters w/ her” (but at the end of the day a dancer will rarely turn-down-money/selling-dances).
As a custy, it’s very-easy to get distracted as lose-count-of-the-songs (and many over-counting-dancers count on this; as well as most-custies being inexperienced and “ripe-for-the-picking”) – also as has been posted; in many clubs the DJs either:
a) mix the songs together to where it can be hard to detect song breaks and the custy thinks he’s still on the first song
b) cut songs short (when a custy is not getting dances; then he often doesn’t notice the songs lengths)
c) some clubs play songs of varying lengths (seemingly on purpose) – and songs can be anywhere from 2 to 3.5 minutes long
I’ve been over-counted in the past; and as others have posted, since I wasn’t 100%-sure: I went ahead and paid (unless it was egregious; e.g. I thought we did 2 and she tells me we did 6; some dancers don’t give a fuck and will actually do shit like this; count on it).
After a couple of over-counting experiences; I was not gonna let it happen again; thus I:
-
tell the dancer upfront b/f we start to let me know everytime she starts a new-song – this usually eliminates almost-all-over-counters – but like I said; there are dancers that plain-and-simple don’t give a fuck and even when I ask them to let me know everytime they start a new song; they either stop doing it after the 2nd-song claiming “they forgot”; or they still over-count (e.g. they do song no. 3 and the next-one they’ll tell me it’s song no. 5 or even no. 6; it’s happened)
-
since no. 1 above isn’t foolproof – I will usually also use my cellphone stopwatch to keep track – i.e. if songs in the club are on avg 3-minutes for example; when I start my dances I’ll kickoff my cellphone-stopwatch and if I did dances for let’s say 10-minutes or so then I’m sure I did 3-songs
After I started doing the above I never paid an over-counter again – it def sucks to have to do what I do vs just sitting back and enjoying my dances; but due to my-style-of-SCing I tend to run into more over-counting issues and for me I rather take some upfront precautions vs paying for songs/dances she didn’t give me.
