I'm gunna need a couple bucks before you take that tinkle." So what if a girl had to piss but was broke? Would she be forced to get dressed and go in an alley? Or to just hold it till she was hospitalized? Maybe the house could loan her the $1.57 US and ding her for a couple points of interest. <br /><br />Oh, and I think we see pretty eye to eye on all that other stuff.TheStripClubInsiderhttp://www.dejavuinsider.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7901476852038000888.post-55468770629221905292011-11-19T16:16:59.758-08:002011-11-19T16:16:59.758-08:00I agree that clubs should - and need - to be run r...I agree that clubs should - and need - to be run respecting both the clubs management and rules. Whilst I do tend to generalize, I've worked in excessively strict clubs and also in those who are super understanding and friendly. However, when you hear scare stories such as the club in the north of England where they charged dancers for every visit to the toilet ( a pound a go) and i know that punishment and intimidation are common tactics, you know something should be done to challenge the status quo. Like I said though, any challenge will cause inconvenience...sassyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05982554130174292082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7901476852038000888.post-65736781175884880192011-11-19T13:28:56.329-08:002011-11-19T13:28:56.329-08:00I think one thing you have to keep in mind is that...I think one thing you have to keep in mind is that there has to be a line drawn that allows for club owners to run thier club as they see fit, and for dancers to be able to run thier business effectively. I cant imagine the rules in London are to much different from Seattle' but it sounds like there are just a bunch of Nazi-esque club owners over there. I've managed several clubs in my area, and haven't once fined a dancer for any reason. Also I've never heard of a situation wear fines are so common that a scale was deemed needed. I have however fired several girls over the years, never for political for personal reasons. Usually for open drug use, wear my hands are tied, or for girls skipping out on house. In most situations the girls will go above my head and get her job back within a few days... which is infuriating by the way. I tend to prefer suspension instead of termination, its increadably effective. That said, as a manager I try to create an environment where girls want to work for me. I have a good team that knows whats expected of them. More often than not my dancers show up on time, work whole shifts, and pay out in full with smiles attached. Adult entertainment can be an ugly business, but it doesn't have to be. Just my two sense... keep up the good work.TheStripClubInsiderhttp://www.dejavuinsider.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7901476852038000888.post-42321396977080153722011-11-19T11:00:54.596-08:002011-11-19T11:00:54.596-08:00Its a really interesting case.

Not least of all because if you are an employee, your employer has a duty of care which involves protection from harassment and discrimination, which could see a rash of claims against lapdancing clubs made by dancers for the harassment that they suffer at the hands of customers.Mhairi McAlpinehttp://mhairi.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
