Dave can always move his happy ass to Russia where he can be spewing his propaganda there. Or maybe China. I have friends who had to flee Ukraine to escape the BS of Mother Russia idiots have delusions of becoming Tsars again.

Sounds like a Floorman scam more than a manager one. Managers goal is to put butts in the seats. Penthouse branded clubs have guidelines to follow, and if they get caught pulling crap like this they can loose their branding.
If it was my club I would have new people hired to replace the idiots who thought they could do such bullshit.

ID scans are for two main reasons.
1/ to make sure you are the person entering and of legal age. Club Licenses and Liquor Licenses if present are very expensive. In this Industry, they are much easier to remove or be suspended for minor infractions. Underage or false ID is one such infraction that can get a club closed.
2/ to make sure you are not on any watch list from local law enforcement, meaning you would be prone to be a liability on the property. These warnings come from the scan company and are updated daily, so this is for customer protection as much as the club.
The Third and minor reason is that just like Casinos in Vegas or Elsewhere scans work like a concierge service. Do you tend to use the VIP services, Do you spend enough to earn VIP status, Have you won a business card drawing for a special that was run but you didnt need to be present for to win, etc.
The Fourth and not so minor is did you walk out on a tab? or was your CC charged back? This would limit your being able to use such on future visits.
What scans are not for is sending mailers or promotions that are unwanted. You can already opt out of social media tracking which does give updates and promotions via cell phone. You can chose to get texts from a club in the same way.
For those who dont trust a club with their ID, must never use an ATM or run a Tab or buy anything online, since those do collect your info down to your SS# and more.
Being unnerved about a door scan that does a very simple job digitally that used to be done by hand and during peak hours would contribute to the line entering is like saying you will only drive a car pre 2000 because you dont trust a digital dashboard.

The Bartender did as he is supposed to do, since 99.9% of other people would use the singles to tip the girls walking about or on stage. Its done this way to make sure it saves a step when five minutes later you would have to ask for more than the four singles you would have gotten back with a ten to tip on stage or elsewhere.
All it happened to prove is you are the .01% who are petty assholes with pet peeves that dont belong in a club.

We have denied entry to guys who come with their own cloud. The biggest issue is that whatever you use goes with your body chemistry. Some just work better, and some that dont tend to overpower anything else in a mile radius

Agree with 25, I dont think he was even in the Club, since what he described is known from ads around town.

You guys have been watching Van Wilder too many times. Easy fix is you dont go into a club that hires fat girls. Problem solved.

E11even in Miami cost 40 million and Sapphire in Vegas nearly the same cost for Upscale
The Mint in Miami has a sign on the door when you enter everything you can eat for under a dollar with a dollar bill hanging near the ceiling or Lipstix in Dallas for the most Ghetto

One club I worked in Dallas years back had a stack of legal pads hung on the wall with just the list of excuses for not coming in to work a scheduled shift. Everything from A frog in my shower and i cant get ready for work to Labor day is a religious holiday. One girl even had so many deaths in the family we had to keep track in her file once her grandparents died to the same manager three times over six months. The list took up four full legal pads back and front and a new one was ready for the next start carry over kept over the years, of course this was before it was converted to digital.
@blah the club we are building now has a contract, and handouts for dancers that cover almost everything you just mentioned if not more.
@wallanon drug dealing dancers alcohol smuggling dancers underage girl sneaking in dancers are all problems to running a club long term. All easy to fix and to stay out of jail. Drug dealers mean money not going to the club and the other obvious dangers, Alcohol being snuck in by a dancer or a bartender cuts into your profit margins, which is theft, and of course the underage issue is now being called trafficking and coercion which leads to federal jail time. None of these are worth putting up with and risking jail and the bottom line.

Go as a customer, get some dances from a girl working and just tell them you want something to spice up the bedroom with your boyfriend or husband.
Do Not go to the club you want to work at, go to somewhere else. This keeps you safe from the animosity from the girls and the debt guilt they would throw at you.
Oh and stay away from Youtube. The person who gave the first girl a chance on stage and let them do nothing but twerk needed to be removed on the spot and 99% of the so called dancers on YouTube are fake and have never even stepped inside a club.
Learn to be sexy and sensual, not slutty and whorish and you will make more money in the long run.

First off - those wanting weed inside the business will be in jail by the end of opening night as no matter what the state says is legal, its federal law your breaking being a business owner allowing a controlled substance.
2- there have been places where dancers set their own rules before, they have all ended with the club owner going bankrupt and the management in jail with the dancers.
3- RCI Holdings runs all Ricks, Scarletts, Jaguars, XTC, etc, Robert Watters aka Rick retired years back.
4- Cash would be in prison for bribery, since democrats only take in million dollar increments
5- iibb you would have to put digital clocks in every room with seconds included or they would fight over when the minute started, causing more drama and breaking the no clock rule inside the club thats taken from casinos
6- Daycares cant be within 1/4 miles of clubs in nearly every city.
7- Dual side clubs have been tried and need double security to keep the 18 yr olds from sneaking to the other side, doubling security costs. Very few last more than a year.
8- Owners who want to get laid are always running dives, places where law enforcement doesnt bother you takes all those profits Mark wanted to count.
9- You can pay X amount for X time, its called Champagne suites. Dances by the song are best when the clubs set low end limits such as $25 dances with 5 to the house, then you wont have the im a $40 dollar girl running around full of herself. Legacy or not it works.
10- Never use your dancer roster as potential servers or anything else, as they will see an income drop and become miserable people with bad attitudes. Retired Dancers sometimes make good Housemoms or Managers but its very rare.
11- If you are going to call them or think of them as Hoes, you are the wrong mentality to run a business in this Industry.
12- DJs have a place in Mid tier and Upscale clubs but they have to be banned from any contact with the dancers during their shifts, and have to be paid like a normal worker.
13- Tipouts and House fees work best when done as a flat rate and are taught to be counted a tax deductions for the dancers. Fines are penalties listed for breaking written rules with proper paperwork.
14- Lifetime Ban for anyone named Icee, Theme nights, coupons, free cover, Beer buckets, and anything of this nature brings nothing but cheap people without disposable income like people named Icee. Toss them all. Same with Pool Tables and Draft beers. The goal is to make money with the dancers and alcohol, not penny pinching pool people.
15- Pimps and others who are bad for business are easy to spot and easier to remove and ban from the property. Working with local law enforcement helps and actually puts a halt on potential trafficking incidents. Any girl who works for a pimp, you toss them as well, as they cause nothing but problems.
16- Add Rock all night to the ban list with Icee so they can go to the local brothel together.
And yes I do and have worked in the Industry for over 26 years.

@Motorhead Clubs are looking for attractive dancers, but they are also looking for attractive dancers that fit the look and who can have a good chance to make money and do well in and for the club. Ive run clubs for years in various markets, and the owners have all had different ideas of what attractive is. Unless you are an Urban club, if you are blonde runway magazine model type, you will always get hired unless you have baggage and a bad history. Urban Clubs want the total opposite, wanting the thick big ass type girls whose only skill is how to twerk. So yes it has happened before, and I've done it myself putting girls on a waiting list, which is the nice way of saying we dont want to hire you.

You havent been there and there hasnt been a review that saw a dancer there in years. Word of advice is dont waste your time. Go to more established clubs further north.
