Talk about technology catching up with you. The club now has a new for the dances. While the number system remains, the VIP supervisor (for lack of a better description) no longer monitors the light and hits the switch when the dancer singles to keep the dance going. Now the girls have a swipe card. They swipe in at the start of the dance and a little key pad assigns them a chair. The light goes on dimly as the five minutes ends. The girl has to swipe when the light goes bright to end log in that the dance has ended or you and she gets charged. It's nice because you don't get interrupted as you did in the past, having to wait for the light to get shut-off before the dancer starts working. And the pad, I'm guessing, displays the number of dances you have. I'm not sure if the system is tied into the private room (or semi-private since they all have cameras - at least the audience isn't staring in).

I'm guessing that since there are so many more dancers coming in to work the club now it will allow the club, and dancers, to keep better track of what they owe. There is also no fighting over chairs since each is assigned by the computer.

Is there a downside? I guess if the system crashes, that could be a real bummer. I guess they would have to go back to the old system until it gets fixed. I just hope they don't up the price on drinks and admission to pay for this. Bring in more girls. They got the system now, and won't have to hike the price on the patrons.
