Yes, you read that right. I have heard and participated in good-natured banter about a job like this. People say things like, "man I'd LOVE to get paid to travel around getting lapdances!" Who wouldn't? I reckon most people would love to be able to get lapdances on a regular basis, period, but to actually get paid for it?? Best. Job. EVAR!
Back to my story. I went in to work the other night (I've recently started a new club) and one of the managers came to me quietly and said that the club owner employs shoppers to check up on the staff and dancers, and that I got a really good review. Cool! Nice to know the ownership of this place cares enough about the business to do something like that. Most club owners couldn't care less how things are going as long as there is cash to collect daily/weekly/monthly, which means most clubs are generally poorly run, terrible excuses for a business. In my experience, most clubs are better described as private ATM machines which are sucked dry as efficiently as possible and left to languish in stripper hell until closed or sold.
But not this club. It's been around for decades and apparently continues to be profitable. The fact the place is treated like a real business was immediately obvious to me. The managers actually watch what's going on and keep things (mostly) in line. Staff and dancers do what they're supposed to do. However we are not micro-managed to death either. Of course nothing is perfect but I can't begin to say how much more pleasant it is to work in a generally professional environment, rather than the giant free-for-all (or micro-management corpo-fuck HELL) that is most clubs.
And, I love that I was able to make a good impression on at least some of The Right People at this club so easily, just by doing what I always do at work, which does not ever involve kissing ass or excessive palm-greasing (or, contrary to the beliefs of some, intra-office "favors"). Thankyouverymuch.
But back to the whole strip club secret shopper thing. I have seen shopper reports in other service businesses, so I can imagine the report one might turn in after shopping a strip club.
Were you greeted pleasantly at the door? Yes the doorgirl who took my money was really cute.
Did the waitress bring your drink efficiently and in a friendly manner? Yes she was fast with my drinks and even offered me change! And she was very attractive.
Were you approached by any entertainers? If so, were they friendly and sexy, and did they wait until you'd received your first drink? No strippers approached until I had my first drink. 2 different girls approached within 10 minutes. They were both attractive and friendly but the first did not fit my preference. The second one was really hot so I bought my dance from her.
How was your lapdance? Were you offered any "extras"? Did the entertainer break any rules or laws? The stripper gave a very good lapdance. She did not offer "extras". I tested to see if she would let me grope her and she moved my hands in a very nice way. Her dance was excellent, but she did not break rules or laws that I know of. She had a great rack.
Haaaaaaa
