Forced to wear heels???

Question

Hi everyone I work at a pole-dancing club in london, recently the club has been taken over and this means for us a uniform change.

we are now being told we HAVE to wear 8" heels, and PVC thong and bra for every shift and their are rumors they will be padlocked to our ankles for the 6 hour shift so we cant take them off!!! this is no joke- i have actually seen one of the girls having this done to them as they were being made-up!

Also, we are getting plastered in make-up, I only want to wear a little but we are starting to look like clowns with the amount of blue eyeshadow they put on us!

I love my job and dancing and don't want to leave but am just a bit unhappy.

ive only eva worn 4 inch before so can any girls tell me is it hard 2 walk in 8"?

they have ordered these for us

Answer 1

Good God, Doesn't your back hurt?

Answer 2

your not beinq true to yourself if u continue workinq .

you should either stand up and confront them about your complaints or quit hun . you can seriously qet hurt in those heels , then you wont be able to work for awhile , which is even worse.

qood luckk :D

Answer 3

Those shoes are just crazy!  My tallest heels are 4" and that is enough of a challenge!  I suppose you can get used to the 8" heels  but do you want to?

It sounds like you are really not happy with the changes they are making and its probably time to find a new job.  But I would suggest that you find a new job first before you quit this one.  Its easier to find a job when you have a job.

I hope you find a place that is better to work at.  We spend to much time working to be miserable when we are there.

Good luck!

Answer 4

wow i would just quit.. i mean pole dancing c'mon.. dont sugur coat the job lol!!

Answer 5

Answer 6

Quit

Honestly you might break something

Answer 7

How in the world would your back hurt from wearing heels?

But your feet will kill you if you're working a 6 hour shift and you cant take the shoes off. WOW.

Answer 8

Quit.

1. It's wrong.

2. The heels will hurt your back.

3. If you fall with the heels you can definitely break your ankle.

Answer 9

They can't force you to do anything. You have rights, make sure they're aware that you know that! They can't fire you for not wearing them, either, you can take them to court for unfair dismissal

Answer 10

You just have to get adapted to them.....If you dont like it go to another club!
