Made a road trip to Columbia...

Made a road trip to Columbia on Thu the 21st and returned to Atlanta yesterday, just to get a change of strip club scenery. I have been going to PP for about 15 years but my visits during the last 2 years have been further and further apart as the club continues to go down hill.

When I first started going there dances were 2 for $20 and there were lots of dancers and they were making good money. The club was ranked in the top 10. Today the club is not even in the top 100. Why? Prices! Supposedly management told the dancers to not do dances for less than $20 a piece because the lousy dancers could not make any money. If the dancers are truly independent contractors how can management dictate how much they can charge for dancers and how would they really know how much they are charging? The club doesn't collect from the customer.

So anyhow now dancers are asking as much as $30-40 per dance. The smart customers can negotiate them down to 2 for $30-40 but some dummies are paying the higher prices but buying fewer dances and now those high prices has led to customers staying away. Since there are no customers, now the dancers are stating away too.
