I think Tallia has some valid points but it is more than that. Definitely there are more options for extras, but the reality is do you want to do that with half the people offering.
I break it into two problems, and honestly I think the economy has little to do with it. Tic Toc and IG have more to do with it than anything. Look at all the girls on there doing short little 1-2 minute “dances” that are funding a nice lifestyle. I get it, they are all not raking in Alix Earle money, but they make enough that they do not have to really work and they travel and screw around all day. A good portion of the dancers have that attitude. You are going to give me a lot of money and I will not do a whole lot for it or I am not interested in you! All they need honestly is1 score a night and they are set.
The other problem is a lot of the dancers think you owe them something and what they are doing is worth what they see n TV. Do not get me wrong, I think they work for their money but the also feel like they are doing you a favor and should just hand it over to them.
The good thing is not all the ladies are like this. But unfortunately you have to weed through the bad ones to find the good ones. There are some awesome dancers out there, but most of them are awesome and loyal to their regulars that come to see them and they are hard to get to know.
Also, we all miss the good old days of Platinum Club II!

That became awkward for a whole other reason when I told her I was waiting for someone and couldnt come up with a name right away. This was before the girl with the "I have to go to the bathroom" excuse. I should've just kept walking right out the door. It just wears me down when I cant walk in and just relax for a few minutes without someone trying to push me into something I don't want. I get that all the time in my real life. I certainly dont want it in the club.
Its like the car salesman who tries to steer you towards the the most expensive car on the lot vs the guy that helps you find what you're looking for. The former I will run away from, the latter I will want to give my business to. Now and in a few years when I buy another car. A lot of these girls don't understand long term thinking.
