New batch of idiots ... (or SICK OF IT ALL PART II)or "Wrong side of the Couch!!!

OK read the previous post if you wanna know the rest of the story. Here goes part 2 : I just get tired of these new "mangers" in the adult business. I read this guy's site, and he was so much like the little wide eyed dumbasses they get to babysit the clubs nowdays. I hated every minute of the last "corporate" strip club I managed. Mostly becuase you have an illiterate drug addict amd former meth dealer now calling the shots in a big chain of clubs. Now this guys goes and steals a damn manual from the Dollhouse corporation. Doesn't even have the creativity to fucking re print the book. On the front it says "Property of Dollhouse Corporation" and some warning about taking it out of the club. OK so obviously this competitor I worked for didn't give a damn. Because the moron kept it around for reference. So now we had to call the dancers "entertainers". You actually get reprimanded or fired for saying "stripper" or "dancer" . Now tell me this . Are these damn girls dancing nowdays really trying to entertain anything other than their own money and themselves nowdays? No one is fucking trying to train them on anything that pertains to customer service. Just these damn "believe your own hype" bullshit the "manuals" say about how you're a damn "entertainer". These girls are told they demand respect and demand money etc. when they give nothing but a " But I show my pussy , I deserve to be rich" mentality. I watch dancers going up to guys saying " If you don't have any damn money why do you come here!" and whining about how they "gotta make the rent by tomorrow" .Meanwhile after getting the loot from a lovesick puppy dog eyed customer, they end up sitting around drinking hennessy with Kilo G Money the dope man , giving him the customer service. No wonder the song "In Da Club" was so popular. It's all about the dope man coming in and getting all the love. Now the aftermath of this bullshit is we now got customers and tricks and marks and college boys trying to be "managers". These guys are brainwashed by every bullshit philosophy about how these girls are all "just trying to work through college" or they are all "victims" of molestation, drug abuse or just suffer becuase their beauty attracts the wrong type of men.They have never been married to a stripper, maybe dated one or hung out. But not enough experience with the "female praying mantis" mentality of the average adult business female to really understand . These guys actually beleive the girls's 5 year boyfriend and father of their 3 kids is a stalking asshole when he calls the club trying to find their kid's mom. Mom's out high at the club, drug dealer's or dance club after work because her kid's father is "smothering her" (usually called "abuse" ) by wondering why she hasn't come home in 4 days. No matter how unfit some of these women are, there is never a shortage of doe eyed tricks in management positions at the "club" just waiting to sick security on the guy when he pulls up with a carload of unloved kids. Don't get me wrong, I care about a lot of people in the industry , but even a good dancer will tell you she is the exception, not the rule in our industry. People who beleive industry lies are the enablers in our business. For example: If you as a manager encourage women to go home after work, take care of the kids, know the husbands, etc. you create a work ethic for your girls that nowdays is fading away. The great entertainer Dean Martin pretended to be drunk for years in his performances because it created a laugh. Dancers trying to become these drug addicted party sluts because theat's the "norm" in the industry should learn how to really perform. But instead they are caught up in the self-pity and "angst" of being a sex object. I want to puke when I hear all these stupid songs made by sex object women about how damn independent they are or not being held down or "I don't care what people say about me" and Me ME ME center of the universe , me and my belly rings and slutty clothes , but please see my whore ass as a "real" person. "It's so hard to be a little sex object" Blah Blaah . How about being a guy who tries his best at life and gets fucked over because the women of his dreams wants a "thug" with 50 lbs of dope in the trunk? These damn girls make the trick managers feel so sorry for them they get away with totally destroying the industry with their drug addictions and lack of respect for their co workers and liveleyhood. So many guys I see in management are on "The wrong side of the couch" . They need to still be on the couch, buying dances, believing the hype. We have lost our customer base and turned them into staff people. How many of these guys have ever built a club? Done an ad? Payed the bills or dealt with drink inventory or ever done anything but walk around with a clipboard spouting commercial philosophies about "entertainers" and the "sanctity of the dancer" . How many of these guys had to put money out of their own pocket becuase the owner won't promote the club, or he's in jail? Or go to court to stay open? Or have an ATF agent or Organized Crime Task Force agent throw you down on the pavement and padlock the doors? Or have to do any damn thing that has anything to do with actually running a business? These new guys are glorified McDonalds mangers. Can't cook real food. Just pouring out pre made frozen burgers into the fryer and serving crap food to the customer.And they never have a clue about the real service or food industry. Smiling behind a counter or window and spouting a catch phrase is nothing like running a 5 star resturaunt. You have to actually "know " your customers and demand somthing real from your staff. We built the industry up from go go bars and prostitution to a commercial based business your average college age girl could work in and never have to have sex or do anything other than tease and pay attention to guys. Now with the lack of any real redeeming quality in our industry being "pushed" out by stupid philosophies that don't work, the money will be gone soon enough. Well at least these idiots have September 11 or the economy or high gas prices to blame... I mean It was going to hell before then , but no one will admit that the groundwork was there before . Just like the morons who "thought" that the only customers we should worry about are the "upscale" customers. Well tell me this , how much money does the CLUB make off a rich guy? In the average setting, the guy is a VIP , gets in free and usually hands the girl money instead of actually spending money that is that circulated back to the club itself. Maybe we make some service charges, but for the most part the guy eventually buys sex from one of the girls and takes his business outside the club. Now don't get me wrong, we need guys like that to keep our women happy. But the real profit is in the addicts, the guys who come in and fall in love or spend a portion of their check every week. And they bring friends because they fucking live in the club or they buy dances and nerchandise because they are devoted fans. But no , all these geniuses (most of whom are going out of business) decided "fuck the average customer" and "taught" their staff to kiss ass with the select few guys who get it all for free . Who does this help? No one. Because it causes a lazy ass mentality among girls , those "he's my damn customer" fights. And this "I just want to sit on my ass and miss stage call and get money from my customer." These girls are inheritly lazy enough as it is. Meanwhile a guy who actually wants to put money "in house" is left sitting. But of course tell a dancer this and she'll curse you out, because they have no clue how to really make money in the industry. And the sad thing is there would usually be some Aston Kutcher looking manger sitting behind her at the employee meeting backing her up, thinking "that guy hates the dancers and is crazy. " The even sadder thing is the former lawyers, accountants and Denny's managers who now "own" clubs will agree with them . Because the truth is, we now have an industry full of know it alls and "jack of all trades" who think if they use the word "business" in a lot of sentences and quote "The Godfather" ever now and then they actually know the industry. So I say to all you TRICKS - FUCK YOU ALL, GOODNIGHT...
