Get a hotel room

The place is a little more mellow than some of the other well-known, bigger chain strip clubs in NYC. I've heard it described as "dive-y" but I wouldn't say that, I'd think it's a bit more humble, with less commotion and definitely less music that vibrates off the walls and would scare off anyone older as some of the other places.

Now, as to the issues. The place is known internationally around the stripper circuit for hiring workers who are not authorized to work in the United States. I worked here several years ago while visiting the city, and got hired again by male management after having recently moved here. The dark-haired, olive-skinned, gaunt, older woman doing orientation had issue with me. There was a forty year old woman with a Japanese passport sitting next to me during this process, who was also a new hire. She could not even speak English, which I found pretty pathetic but also unfair to someone like myself, as someone who had to go through great lengths to get my Greencard and then my American passport. The woman doing the orientation seemed angry because she kept bending my passport which I provided as my id for employment-I thought the passport would break. She would not let me read the contract, and she started nitpicking about the dumbest things such as the way my signature was signed or the initials I used to designate my identity on each one of the bullet points of the contract and just, talking down to me. Her words were, "Do you know how many times we've been sued? This has to be done this way for legal reasons..." This was way past her making the non-English-speaking Japanese woman go and start working, with nothing but a quick scribble over the independent contract agreement. Like, so sketch... An older male, probably owner, came up to me and said to the witch lady, "Well, if she is not cooperating, maybe this isn't the right place for you." So after waiting around for orientation for an hour, I got fired right on the spot.

My suggestion is if you stop down talking to your independent contract workers, and treating them like employees, maybe you won't get sued so much. Or otherwise, you can always hire non-Americans who are not authorized to work in the US, who you can fine $200 upon $200 each time they miss a shift consecutively even if they bring in a doctor's note, keep the vast majority of the room fees charged to the customer (dancer keeps 200 out of 2000 room, for example and fees to work nightly are approximately 200), and whatever else ya'll do that you shouldn't.
