I visited HB on a Thursday...

I visited HB on a Thursday day-shift. I have not been there for quite some time. As usual for day shift, it was $5 admission which includes lunch and soda. There were perhaps 10 girls working, only one on stage at a time.

I like to tip at the stage show but it seemed I was the only one doing so. The first time I tipped, the girl laughed nervously (turns out she was brand new and a little embarassed). Both times they just held the garter and didn't pay any extra attention for a tip. Both girls came over after their set to chat and ask if I wanted a dance, however.

I turned down the new girl. She was nice but her nervousness was palpable and I didn't figure she'd give a good dance. After a while I was approached by a more 'seasoned' dancer (she'd been at HB for 12 years, she told me!). She took the time to reacquaint me with their pricing structure (2 dances for $25 or 5 for $50 downstairs, or 5 for $60 upstairs). While a bit older than the 18-22 year olds, she was actually quite attractive, very nice and playful and I decided to go upstairs with her.
