Strippers in New York have claimed a new wave of scantily clad bartenders are stealing their tips from under them. The dancers are complaining that the bar staff, who call themselves 'startenders', dress as raunchily as they do and dance just as provocatively for cash-throwing customers.  They say the only differences are that they are behind the bar and not on stage, and unlike them, they do not have to pay the house to work there.

, and unlike them, they do not have to pay the house to work there.”

And this would be because Vinny and Vito and Tony are suddenly morons...?

Whats with the straight blonde hair? Isn’t that cultural appropriation? What a bigot!

[Tax-chick]

The wig is curly blonde hair, not straight.

While I would mostly agree with you, there is a line between a big butt and a fat a$$.

[Alas Babylon!]

You are disgusting.

I was just having my breakfast!

AND black boys, too.

Probably more so.

So the complaint is that the bar girls are essentially dressing and acting like strippers and taking the strippers tips. But if the strippers strike the bar girls will get all the tips. The strike benefits the bar girls.

I never knew until now that strippers paid the clubs to dance there. I always thought it was the other way around.

Junk. In the trunk.

Now THAT’s what I call a cat fight.
