Stuff that irks me at work

There are a few things guys say at work that really irks me. No, not saying no to dances. That's fine. You are allowed to do that - still.
I might not be your type and I am totally ok with that. Or you might not be "ready" - though you should, always - lol. Or you might not have any $ left. There are all kinds of reasons. But I do think that everybody, upon entering a strip club (unless you are a frequent regular) should have to buy one ticket/voucher that would go towards a dance. If you do not find any girls in there to be attractive then you can use the voucher next time you come in, give it away to your buddy or just give it away to one of the dancers. It should not be ok for people to come in, hug one lukewarm beer all night and just sit there and take up room. You can't walk into a restaurant and not order something to eat. Or a coffeshop and use the free wifi without ordering something to drink. Same should apply in a strip club.
The club where I saw the most of this phenomenon was at The Bush Company in Anchorage. I actually heard one of the managers tell all of us girls at an employee meeting that she did not care whether the men coming through the door tipped us on stage, even while sitting at the stage (!) or bought dances, all that mattered to her was that they bought at least one beer or drink. Yeah.......talk about catering to the girls! Sure, charge us to work there, collect YOUR tip and don't care if the girls make money or not. If it wasn't for the girls willing to get naked in there every night, that place wouldn't exist. There are plenty of bars in town.
Needless to say, that was my last employee meeting there. I think that the club used to be great but the last year or so I was there the quality of the people coming in and the quality of the girls that got hired started declining alarmingly. Maybe the place has gotten better but I've heard that it's still pretty bad nowadays.......but don't take my word for it......
But back to what I really wanted to say......I can't stand when guys come up to me while I am sitting by myself and blurt out "SMILE!", "why don't you smile, what's wrong?", or "why are you sitting here by yourself, are you not having a good time?".
First of all, who the heck sits around with a permanent smile plastered on their face? I don't. Actually I do not know anyone that does. Just because I work in a strip club doesn't mean that I always have to sport a dumb smile. I smile when I WANT to, thank you! Do you go into a bank/coffe shop/store and ask/demand to know why the person helping you is not smiling? No, you don't. So spare me that treatment.
Also, the sitting by myself. I do not mind talking to people at work. I've had countless of great/interesting/funny conversations without expecting or getting any money, neither do I want to. But if I see an individual or a group of people that seem annoying, inebriated or if I am not in the mood to talk at the moment, then I will sit by myself and enjoy the quiet time. There is nothing wrong, I like my own company. I just don't want to talk to you and neither do I have to. If somebody in the club has nothing to offer me besides some highly irritating drunk talk that makes no sense, then why should I even bother? You want to talk? Talk to your friends. I am busy. With myself.
