1/5 J.B. 3 years ago on Google
I
was
essentially
robbed
there
today.
I
have
been
to
this
place
before
and
never
had
a
bad
experience
until
today.
The
dancer
Lola
refused
to
give
me
any
money
back
or
at
least
give
me
the
dance
I
paid
for
after
she
asked
me
for
a
certain
amount
of
money
I
didn't
have
and
didn't
want
to
pay
before
a
dance.
I
brought
this
issue
up
to
the
gentleman
at
the
counter.
He's
a
nice
guy
and
I
have
seen
him
before
but
he
made
a
comment
to
the
effect
that
the
girl
will
say
"you
were
aggressive
with
her"
if
you
report
this.
I
told
him
I
would
report
this
issue
to
the
police.
The
possibility
someone
may
make
false
allegations
against
me
should
not
prevent
a
business
from
trying
to
help
a
customer
or
resolve
an
issue.
The
guy
at
counter
did
give
me
a
pass
for
a
free
dance.
However,
what
the
girl
gets
paid
is
a
tip
separate
from
that.
I
have
not
reported
this
to
any
authorities
at
this
point.
I
am
a
reasonable
person
and
just
want
a
solution
as
opposed
to
this
business
allowing
a
girl
there
to
keep
ALL
the
money
given
to
her
for
a
service
never
performed
or
given.
I
honestly
was
and
am
angry
about
this.
However,
I
never
cursed,
threatened,
or
maligned
anyone
in
any
way.
Again,
I
have
been
to
this
place
maybe
40
times
in
the
past
20
years
or
so.
I
never
had
a
bad
experience
until
today
but
it
was
so
bad
as
to
cause
me
to
write
this
1
star
review.
Update:
I
spoke
to
Dean
around
11
today.
He
was
mostly
cordial.
But
he
seemed
a
bit
sarcastic
when
he
said
"good
luck"
when
I
asked
for
the
owner
and
said
I
wanted
my
money
back
that
was
effectively
stolen
by
dancer
Lola.
He
said
the
girls
are
independent
contractors
and
talked
of
how
they
can't
really
monitor
them.
The
dancer
Lola
told
me
the
dollar
amount
of
what
she
is
required
to
give
to
ownership
when
books
a
dance,
so
at
the
very
least
I
feel
ownership
needs
to
make
good
with
me
on
that.
I
can
seek
liability
for
Lola
for
the
other
part
then.
Dean
also
mentioned
that
the
owner
was
"in
the
building"
when
this
occurred
yesterday.
There
is
not
much
staff
so
if
owner
is
the
gentleman
who
was
there
at
the
desk,
I
find
your
response
of
"sorry"
from
yesterday
rather
disingenuous
and
dishonest
if
that
happens
to
be
the
case.
If
not,
so
be
it.
Dean
told
me
that
he
didn't
see
Lola
booked
for
this
week,
so
perhaps
she
lost
shifts
because
of
this
incident.
However,
Lola
told
me
she
resides
in
Pennsylvania
and
only
works
weekend
days.
Thus,
she
wouldn't
work
weekdays
anyhow.
Employers
like
to
hide
behind
the
"independent
contractor"
status
and,
in
cases
like
this
one,
it's
abhorrent
and
unacceptable.
I
left
my
cell
number
with
Dean
and
asked
for
the
owner
to
call
me.
I
won't
hold
my
breath.
If
this
isn't
fixed,
I
will
utilize
whatever
combination
of
Small
Claims
Court,
Better
Business
Bureau,
Police,
and
Suffolk
County
District
Attorney's
Office
will
help
my
grievance
be
redressed.
