Well, I'm taking off my socks....

One of my bar owners has decided that having the same good KJ every week should not be normal. Perhaps because singers tend to sing the same songs... Different KJs will have different singers singing the same songs.... it's a good thing that radio stations never repeat a play list every hour....nobody would tune in.

I argued that people like consistency and he doesn't change his food menu every other week.... So after many inferior KJs that aren't working on my off weeks...I still haven't passed the audition... he has a KJ that does karaoke with puppets.... They sing and dance while you're singing your song along with you. The puppets move their lips they don't actually sing with you. Now I guess the KJ is also a ventriloquist and the puppets sing during time wasting breaks...

So mostly everyone left by 11 o clock...

Now I not only have one bar owner like this...I have two... Both bar owners know my nights are more profitable but they continue to lose money every other week for the last eight months.... On crap KJs.... Can anyone see the logical reason for them being brain dead and willingly losing money? PLEASE explain it to me before I KILL myself..

Oh...one more thing...neither wants to pay me full money...

I'm working on my new karaoke show...I'm going shoeless wearing my socks on my hands....

[EDIT] Do not place links to market products in posts!

they charge less, that's all.
bar owners are not smart enough to equate the bad nights with bad karaoke...karaoke is karaoke to them.

I see about 15 reasons to leave this gig and no reason to keep it besides the little money it does pay. Line up a new gig and quit. This situation is only going to get worse.

When you do quit, make sure your boss hears it from a puppet, not you

I have to admit that the puppets are a new one on me.

This situation can only go downhill from here. A bar owner with that little business sense is either going to screw you, not pay you, close the doors and never tell you, etc, etc. Run away.
