Having been in the industry for a few years I know the do's and dont's when it comes to strip clubs.
I keep my mouth shut about being a shooter.
I keep my mouth shut about working at other clubs.
I keep my mouth shut about the girls I have slept with at the club.
And I especially keep my mouth shut about the staff (non-dancers) I know that work there.
So I was utterly surprised as I got surrounded by the manager (Tim) and about 6 doormen as he explained to me that a girl I used to date said she was uncomfortable with me being there and he said I had to call it a night.
First thought came to my head is my almost identical twin, a guy who is about 7 years older than me, has a few of the same tattoos and looks almost identical to me.
The manager says to walk outside with him and we can get it straightened out.
At this point I am completely confused, I walked around the whole club about 20 minutes before, didn't see anyone I recognized except the waitress (whom I've never slept with and had talked to for a few minutes prior) and then plopped my ass down in front of the stage.
I should mention I was the ONLY person tipping out of the 15-20 guys in that section. Regardless.
I look around at my company, tell him it's entirely too much and I will walk out with him without a problem because I think he's mistaken me for someone else.
We walk out the front door past the doorgirl who looks awful familiar but no one I can put my finger on. get outside, he asks me what my name is and goes back inside. Comes out a few seconds later and tells me my full legal name - something VERY FEW people that I've met in the last 3 years know. I'm talking 5 maybe 6 people tops, none of them female.
So I ask him who could possibly be uncomfortable with me when I don't even recognize anyone in the club? He said her name is "Alex" or "Alec" which TOTALLY throws me off because I occasionally go by the name Alec Ashe when I'm out just to avoid drama.
So I tell him it's no big deal, I was leaving anyways and thanks for not being a douchebag about it.
My buddy the DJ calls me and apologizes, tells me he will find out who the girl was and what the deal was...
I text the ONLY person I know who also knows a girl named Alex (a girl I dated 4 years ago that I haven't heard from in 4 years) and he says "yeah she works there and said she'd get you booted if you ever showed up."
All in all I got a good chuckle out of it, I guess I made a lasting impression on this bitch.
When I told my buddy who it was he started yelling about how stupid it was and he was going to talk to the manager that kicked me out about the whole thing. I told him not to worry about it.
I have NEVER been kicked out of ANYWHERE before.
Sucks but it probably saved me about a grand.
*cliffs*
My ex (this chick)
got me my first boot from a club that I had no idea she worked at, even after walking by her.
