Quote from DeJha: You lose them how you meet them.
We were thrilled to speak with DeJha for an interview to hear her story firsthand. Here it is:
Biller & Kimble: How did get started as a dancer?
DV: I got started as a dancer when I went through some financial hardships and needed a quick way to make some money. A girl I considered a sister had plugged me into my first strip club, known as Sinbad’s Stripclub.
BK: What has been your favorite part about working with Biller & Kimble?
DV: My favorite part is the fact that everyone in that company I have spoken to or worked with was so down to earth. They always made sure to keep me up to date. I love this company as a whole, and I will do my best to send them all of the business I come across.
BK: How did you learn you might not be properly paid at your job?
DV: I simply learned from working in different clubs and comparing the policies in each club. That is when I was able to catch the pattern from the money you had to pay to work in that club to the fines they also took out if you made a certain amount of money.
BK: What advice do you have for other tipped employees/dancers?
DV: The advice I give would be to do your research on the club before you work there. A lot of strippers work in the same places and can give you better information from working on the inside. Make sure you save all of your money as well in case anything suddenly stops.
