Work Shifts

Shift Duration: 4 hours

Hours of Operation: 2PM-6PM,  6PM-10PM, 10PM-2AM

Equipment Needed: Megaphone, Name Badges, trash bag, and a sexy outfit

Objective: To entice the citizens of BRC to partake in the toys and attractions of the village. To act as emcee and rile the crowd when appropriate. To make the village more fun!!! Entice passers-by on the streets to come into the bar

Duties:

•  REPORTS TO BAR MANAGER, TRAINING ALSO AVAILABLE FROM APJ
• When the bar, attractions, toys, etc are not crowded or being used, it is your job to go out on the street with a megaphone and entice people to come into our space. You can adopt whatever tone suits you… Carnival barker, game show host, snarky reporter, circus ring leader, info-mercial salesman, etc.
• When the bar area is crowded, but the toys and other camps spaces are not being used, your job is to mingle through the crowd and greet our guests (no megaphone needed)
• Make sure they read the rules of consent (Consent 101)
• Carry some “dirty name badges” with you (male and female). These are a great ice-breaker. These are pre-made name badges (ie. “Hello… My Name is:”) with humorous/dirty names on them. Sometimes they are clever double entendres, sometimes they are obvious, sometimes you need to say them out loud a few times before you get the dirty meaning of the name.
• You go out on the street and stop people. You give them a new dirty name badge. You throw the trash in the trash bag.
  • This is a very social job. You will make lots of new friends. You will make lots of people laugh. You should also use this job to help promote village events, DJs, MPR, etc.
• Have some kind of schtick too… like, say, “Pick a number between Neptune and cucumber”…then choose a name badge for them and say, “Your name for the rest of the day is ______”. Make sure they comprehend the name too.
• Let them know about all the attractions in the village
• Give them a tour of the camps in the village if they want one
• Introduce them to Masters/Mistresses/Slaves that are on duty or available, if they’re interested
• Tell them about the bar games
• Introduce them to other Spankers and other patrons at the bar
• Let them know that they are welcome to dance on the bar or stage
• Get customers to interact with each other… be a matchmaker!
• Promote the upcoming camp events (see the events page or events schedule at the bar for details). We usually have flyers at the bar which list our events for the week.
• Recruit camp slaves! We all need slaves for massages, foot rubs, cooking, etc….and the bar area could always use more human benches! 😉
• Let the customers know that they are in a safe space and it’s OK to get their freak on… within our limits.
• Some people will be happy to just sit and chat at the bar with their friends, and that’s fine. Other people need a little social nudge to get them out of their shells… those are the people you are looking for
• When the whole camp is totally rocking, get on the megaphone and cheerlead/commentate the wild things that are going on (bondage wall, Spank-O-Matic, etc)
• Be fun, be humorous, promote the village and/or camp names often.
• Keep an eye on the streets around SWB to make sure that bicycles and art cars aren’t blocking traffic… this could be a serious problem if emergency vehicles can’t get through. This happens almost every night.

• REPORTS TO DISCO TITS (bar manager) or GROMMET (assistant bar manager), TRAINING ALSO AVAILABLE BY BLACKBIRD, BACON DADDY, POSEIDON, ART CRIMINAL
• Bar backs need to know the whole job description for Bartenders.  Please read all of that.
• The bartenders are SWB’s “front line” personnel.  Your job is to make theirs easier by not letting them get bogged down in resupplying/stocking, cleaning, logistics, etc
• You may also be asked to help-out bartending from time to time
• Make sure the bartenders have full wine bottles ready (with our wine labels already on them). Use funnels to add more wine to existing (labelled) bottles
• Put new labels on wine bottles as needed (we have SWB labels that are humorous)… only put new labels on the bottles when the old ones become damaged or unreadable. Don’t put bottles with our labels in the coolers as the ice/water will ruin them. Chill white wines in the coolers with the existing (real) labels, then funnel the wine into the serving bottles (with our labels) as needed.
• Make sure your hands are clean when working in the coolers!
• Coolers need to be periodically drained of water, and fresh ice added
• Keep the trash/recycling organized. As cans fill up, pull out the bag and tie it off with a twist-tie. Then put a new bag in the can. All aluminum cans should be crushed and stored separately so we can bring them to recycle camp the following day.
• Once any general (non-recycling) trash bag is full and tied up, it should be distributed evenly amongst village members for disposal after the event.
• Keep the bar top free of trash/junk, clean and organized. There are cleaning supplies located under the bar. Use disinfectant spray as needed.
• Keep the supplies under the bar neat and organized. If we are running out of bar supplies (cups, cleaning products, etc) alert the Bar Manager.
• Keep the ground surrounding the bar free of trash.
• Do not leave a messy, sticky bar for the next shift to clean.
• Act as a “go-fer” if the bartenders need anything else.
• Report any violations of the bar or consent to the bartenders or SWB security

Shift Duration: 4 hours

Hours of Operation: 10am-2pm, 2pm-6pm, 6pm-10pm, 10pm-2am

Equipment Needed: Everything you need should be located at the bar.  You should also wear your name badge!  And bring a headlamp

Description:  Serve patron drinks while keeping the bar fun and sexy.  Follow the rules.  Encourage Participation.  Be professional, yet fun.

THE RULES OF THE BAR

• REPORTS TO DISCO TITS (bar manager) or GROMMET (assistant bar manager), TRAINING ALSO AVAILABLE BY BLACKBIRD, BACON DADDY, POSEIDON, ART CRIMINAL
• SWB does not tolerate underage drinking (21 and over only!)  Always check IDs… carefully.  On occasion, law enforcement does “sting operations” to entrap bars at Bman.  They will usually use young girls in these stings.  The girls will be sent in and will try to get alcohol or drugs.  Don’t fall for it!  Be diligent!  You can be personally ticketed/fined for serving booze to a minor or having any hand in finding, selling, gifting, trading drugs… plus, they could shut down SWB.  Note:  Weed is still illegal at Bman… because it’s held on BLM (federal) land.
• We are not allowed to serve anyone who is already drunk or clearly on substances.  This is a real law!
• It is okay for 18+ customers to be in the camp and participate in other adult activities… but they can’t drink unless they are over 21… and they can’t be “at the bar”
• People under 18 are not allowed in Spanky’s front yard.
• If you are a seasoned SWB bartender… Disco Tits may ask you to be Bar Lead (head bartender for a shift or two).  She will inform you of your additional responsibilities if she taps you for this honor.
• If a customer orders an “Angel Shot”, that is a code for something.  It means that somebody is harassing them, or they are feeling uncomfortable about someone… or they are in danger.  Be discrete and calm.  Ask if they can identify the person in question, without them noticing.  Immediately let the bar manager/lead know.  It is important to get that customer away from the harassing person/danger right away.  You can get more info/details once they are in a safe location (sanctuary, kitchen, SWB HQ, etc.)  Also, SWB Security needs to be informed of who the harasser/danger is, right away.  Also…if you see a customer in distress, you can offer them an Angel Shot
• We don’t allow photography or video at SWB… unless there is consent from everyone who might appear in the photo/video.  No exceptions.
• We have games at the bar (like Deviant Dare Dice).  Nobody should be forced to play, but please encourage them to play!  And nobody should be forced to perform the result of a roll of the dice if they don’t want to.  A fun approach, when somebody refuses to do what “the dice say” is to tell them they have to leave Spanky’s…. and come back in two minutes and can come back and try again (the last part will confuse them… and then they’ll smile)
• There should always be hand sanitizer visible and accessible to all SWB patrons
• There should also be at least one big water cooler at the bar… with clean ice in it!  Remind patrons to stay hydrated!
• Offer water to any patrons who seem to have had too much alcohol.  It’s illegal to give more booze to somebody who is already drunk
• When welcoming patrons, and checking their IDs, let them know about the Rules of Consent and Rules of the Bar… which should be posted prominently at the bar.  Let them know to report any violations to a bartender, security, or any member of the camp
• Be familiar with the layout of the bar and the location of all the bar supplies
• The vibe at the bar should be fun, but not overly rowdy. The scene should be sexy but not creepy/sleazy. If things get out of hand, nothing stops a ‘bad scene’ faster than killing the music. If you need help with unruly customers, let the bar manager know.  And there will be “SWB Security” available to help. Know who the Security personnel are during your shift.  GROMMET is the head of security.
• Always have a lighter or two and there should be ashtrays on the bar. Please empty the ashtrays often, but be very careful not to dump hot embers into the trash
• Know where the fire extinguisher is and know how to use it.
• There will be a “bar back” (or two) during each shift.  Bartenders should read the job descriptions for their bar backs.
• Keep the bar and trash organized. There will be two types of trash cans at the bar, one for general trash, one for recyclables. Use them properly… make sure others are too.  Empty and crush all cans before putting them in the recycle trash can.
• Be mindful of your “pour”.  We have a limited supply of wine and other alcohol
• There is a “Lost and Found” area in the bar.  Know where it is.  Place any left-behind items in there.
• Learn the proper procedures for the coolers.  There is a system for making sure that cold drinks are served.
• Ensure that there is always cold beer and white wine
• NEVER use your hands to get ice that will be served in drinks.  Contaminating the ice is a health code violation… and gross!  Always use a scooper.  All drink-ice must come from Bman/Arctica.  There is ONE cooler with only ice in it… this is the one for drink ice.  Nothing else goes in that cooler.  It must be sanitized daily (or as needed)
• We don’t ever serve fresh squeezed juice… health code violation.  (store-bought juices and mixers are OK.)
• Don’t serve drinks in used cups (unless it is the customer’s personal cup)
• There are cleaning supplies behind the bar.  Clean messes as they happen
• The last shift of the night is responsible for cleaning up the bar, surrounding bar area, and hiding the alcohol.
• Remind guest bartenders (read: Naked Bartender – dice game) to follow all the bar rules.  Supervise them!
• And once again…CHECK IDs!!!

Objective:  To act as the “Village Supervisor”, oversee the village staff, toys and infrastructure. Ensure that Spankers show up for their work shifts. Act as roving problem solver.

Description: REPORTS TO WEBSTER.  SECURITY TRAINING ALSO AVAILABLE FROM WEBSTER, COLIN, AND DANO.

Duties – Security:

Security’s main job is to ensure that Spankys is a safe, consensual, and healthy environment. Security makes sure that there are no under-age persons drinking alcohol or viewing “adult oriented” scenes in the village. Also, to ensure that the dancers and mistresses are not being harassed by anyone. And to guard private spaces when there are private scenes happening that are not open to the general public.

Security’s job is not one of violence or harsh confrontation, but rather, one of diplomacy and reason. If any situation escalates to a threat of violence, Security should immediately attempt to contact a BRC Ranger or law enforcement. The only exception to this rule would be an imminent threat to somebody else’s safety, at which time Security will immediately announce over the radio “Code Black!,” and your location, and attempt to gain assistance of any Spanky’s management person around. At that point, any Spanky’s management on their radio will come to Security’s aid in an attempt to stop any ensuing violence from occurring.

Photography is not allowed in camp without the explicit consent of everyone in the photograph. Security should be on the lookout for and must ask patrons to delete photos if taken without permission of everyone in the photo. Lastly, the Security Team must always look for non-consensual behavior.

If we need to find Rangers, have Spankers fan out into the street to find nearby rangers, while at least one person goes to the nearest Ranger Station.  Stations are at Center Camp, 3:00 Plaza, and 9:00 Plaza.

Security should know where to find:

• Water – at the bar, headquarters, and kitchen
• Minor first aid and sanctuary – next to Eve’s kitchen – Solar is the head this year (2023)
• Spanky’s Lost & Found – at the bar

• At 10am go to SWB HQ and get the supplies needed. The clipboard should note the cost of ice (per bag of cubes or block). Then find Amethyst, who will give you money for the “bar, kitchen, and HQ” ice order. Then use the megaphone and walk around the village announcing that you are taking ice orders for the village, and Spankers should come to the bar to meet you and place (and pay for) their ice order.
• As you take orders, collect the money needed for each person’s order (give change immediately if you can) and WRITE EVERYTHING down! Note their name, how many bags of cubes/blocks each person ordered, how much they paid and how much change they are to receive (if change wasn’t made on the spot).

• REPORTS TO EVE, TRAINING ALSO AVAILABLE BY MARY H.
• Bring all coffee-making equipment and supplies to the bar area.
• This is where we will serve coffee every morning.
• Start brewing two pots/urns of coffee.
• Set up the milk/creamer/alcohol/cups/spoons/etc into a logical coffee service area (set things up so cups/napkins/things don’t blow away).
• Make sure coffee is constantly brewing in one of the pots/urns, so we never have down time.
• Although coffee is self-served, your job is to ensure that nobody underage is served alcohol in or out of their coffee. If they look under age 35, check ID.
• At the end of your shift, begin cleaning up and putting supplies back in the kitchen. There are cleaning supplies under the bar to wipe up any messes.  Please throw away any miscellaneous trash, and please clean the coffee pots/urns before putting them away in the kitchen

Shift Duration: 4 hours

Hours of Operation: 2pm-6pm, 6pm-10pm, 10pm-2am

Equipment Needed: Laminated Consent Flyers, BDSM toys and cleaning supplies (located in the Bondage Dome), a sexy outfit, an open mind, sunglasses or a mask if you want to remain incognito

Objective: As a member of the M.O.D. Squad (master/mistress On Duty), it is your duty to provide entertainment and a fun/safe BDSM scene for participants and to put on a good show for the crowd. This is done to the extent of your comfort level and that of your slave/switch/master/mistress.

Duties:

• REPORTS TO THUMPER, TRAINING AVAILABLE FROM LINDSAY, OLIVIA, MICHELLE, or FRANCOIS
• First and foremost, all “scenes” will be safe and consensual. Nobody will
  be forced or coerced into doing anything they don’t freely want to do.
• Safe words will be used to control the scene. Participants will inform each other that the safe word “yellow” means that the scene is getting too intense and the Master/Mistress should “back down” a bit, but the scene doesn’t have to end yet. The safe word “red” means that the slave would like the scene to end now. Honor the safe words. If gags
  are used in the scene, use agreed upon “safe gestures.”
• There will be no public fluid exchange. The public bondage wall and other associated toys are not about sex, they are about entertainment. They are, however, about being sexy… and kinky… and perverted… but in a fun way. Actual sex is between you and whomever your consenting partner is, and should be done consensually in a private session (not open to the public).
• All scenes will usually involve at least two people from Spanky’s. One (or more) to perform the “scene” and one (or more) to control the crowd. The “crowd control person” makes sure that nobody gets too close to accidentally get hitting by a whip/paddle/etc AND to make sure that onlookers don’t interfere with the scene or take unauthorized photos/video.
• It’s OK to recruit non-Spankers to assist in maintaining a safety zone.
• Non-Spanky’s couples/groups ARE allowed to use the toys/equipment (ie. be both Dom and sub) but only under the supervision of a Spanky’s M.O.D Squad member, to control the crowd and enforce the rules.
• If you are unsure of how to use any of the equipment safely and properly (whips, paddles, etc.) don’t use them until you have learned (Leaders of the M.O.D. Squad are happy to give lessons).
• When finished with the toys, clean them and keep them stored in their proper place.
• Upon meeting a new participant, ask them if they have ever done this before and get as much info as you can about what they want to happen during the session. Find out about the degree of nudity with which they are comfortable.
• Make sure there is a complete understanding between the dom/sub regarding what their limits and/or comfort levels are. The more you/they know, the better the session will be for everyone.
• Check in occasionally during the sessions to make sure the participant is still doing OK.
• At the end of the session, give the participant aftercare if needed.
• Keep the scene fun and entertaining!

Shift Duration: 8 hrs

Hours of Operation: 10am-6pm, 6pm-2am

Equipment Needed: Preferably medical training (Doctor, Nurse, ALS, EMT, basic first-aid training), SWB Radio, SWB medical kit & defibrillator, knowledge of where things are located in SWB Sanctuary (usually a tent adjacent to the camp kitchen), knowledge of who has art-cars in SWB and their locations.

Objective: To be “on call” for Healthcare, Melt-Down, and First Aid related problems… and deal with these situations

Description:

• REPORTS TO SOLAR, TRAINING ALSO AVAILABLE BY AMETHYST AND ADMIRAL PAINJOY
• Spanky’s “Sancturary” is a place where somebody who is having a playa-meltdown can retreat and recover. Snacks, water, shade, and comfort are available… as well as some wonderful Spankers.
• Sanctuary is also a place where Spankers can find somebody with medical training, or psychiatric experience (Zendo), or just a shoulder to cry on.  Minor first aid can be administered, as well.
• While SWB doesn’t provide advanced medical care, we can provide first aid and comfort. As the Sanctuary Team volunteer, you can provide this… but more importantly, you make “judgement calls” regarding whether or not the person in crisis needs to be taken to Rampart (Burning Man Medical Tent – found at CENTER CAMP) for immediate, advanced medical support
• If somebody is having a Really Bad Trip, contact Burning Man Rangers to have that person transported to Zendo.

Shift Duration: 4 hours

Hours of Operation: 2pm-6pm, 6pm-10pm, 10pm-2am

Equipment Needed:  A sexy costume, a riding crop, and the Spank-O-Matic, oh yeah, and a finger!

Objective: To safely administer spankings to our customers on the world-famous Spank-O-Matic machine… without damaging the machine!

Duties:

• REPORTS TO [TBD]
• The Spank-O-Matic is a fun experience for both the administrator and participant as long as you are properly trained and you understand the importance of getting the butt in the correct position.
• Inform customers that they must resist the temptation to put their hands behind them during the spanking as this could cause a broken finger.
• DO NOT DRY-FIRE MACHINE. It is tempting to depress the lever and see the paddle move.  You will be asked by timid participants to see it work prior to decide if they wish to participate.  You will also want to do it, simply because you are being told not to…. The SOM has an air activated cylinder connected to an arm with a paddle attached.  This simulates being spanked by a real person using an arm and holding a paddle.   The concept is simple and works on the principal of inertia. When you are spanking someone with the typical method, your arm would swing backwards a certain distance and then forward making contact with buttocks. Success! Now imagine the person moved out of the way as you were just about to connect on 2nd spanking…. Where would your hand end up?  Would you hit something else? Would you hurt your hand?  The paddle on the SOM swings forward with a lot of force.  People’s buttocks are the brakes (soft landing) for the paddle.  Without buttocks to act as the brakes for the paddle, the paddle will slam hard and is the reason the SOM gets broken. This is what we call a dry-fire.  This is also why it is so important to be trained on how to get peoples buttocks in the right position.
  • Last burn, on burn night, somebody figured out how to turn on the machine and use it (unsupervised/untrained) and were able to slam the paddle “Dry-Fire” so many times, it broke all the welds that keep the paddle and air cylinder secured.
• Prior to administering spankings, make sure the customer is positioned properly (hands on handles, feet in proper position, and bent at the waist and knees) and that they are not wearing anything that could hurt/stab them when the paddle strikes.  If the buttocks are too far back, they don’t get the full experience (weak spank). If they are too far forward, the paddle will miss them and the machine will dry-fire.
• Nudity is allowed and encouraged, but not required.
• The customer should be informed to say “thank you” when they have had enough spankings.
• A riding crop is useful when positioning people to the right height and distance from the machine to receive a proper spank.
• Pay close attention to the customer when you depress the trigger to ensure that they are following the rules.
• Stop when they say “thank you” or if you notice a problem or malfunction.
• If there are many people waiting for a spanking, try to keep them a bit organized.
• Ask the crowd to keep a safe distance from the scene. Pictures are only allowed with the customer’s permission.

Safety:

• Inform customers that they must resist the temptation to put their hands behind them during the spanking as this could cause a broken finger.
• Do not operate the machine unless you have been trained in its use by [TBD] or another qualified instructor.
• The Operator’s job is to spank the SOM participants by depressing the SOM activator button. Be sure to try it on yourself to understand how firm it is and how quickly it can re-cycle.
• It is important that you pay close attention to everything that is happening, particularly the reactions of the participant.
• DO NOT start spanking until everything is ready and safe.
• Stop spanking if the participant takes their hands off their knees, or if you see any problem with the machine or situation.
• Check the SOM often for loose parts.
• Do not allow anyone within 5 ft. of the SOM, except for the participant.
• NEVER give the controls to anyone else.
• If you need to put the controls down for any reason, turn off the machine first by disconnecting the air supply.
• If the machine becomes unsafe in any way, shut it down and inform [TBD].

Shift Duration: 4 hours during burn week

Hours of Operation: 8am-12pm, 12pm – 4pm, 4pm – 8pm

Equipment Needed:  All equipment will be located in the kitchen

Objective of Early Shift (8am – 12pm):

1. To create a coffee service for Spankers each morning, maintain the brewing of coffee
   through the duration of the shift, and clean up and put everything back afterwards
2. To monitor and keep the kitchen orderly. Spankers will often come to the kitchen
   with the intent of cooking something there. Most have their own kitchen set ups, but
   sometimes they are making something that requires extra space so we make the kitchen
   available to them. The monitor will be there to answer questions as to where things are,
   to make sure people clean up after themselves and that they do not waste water in the
   process. It is also to make sure that we have adequate water in the kitchen and that
   someone is taking out the trash as needed…essentially to help with questions an keep
   things neat and operational.

Coffee Job: You should be familiar with all the necessary equipment and supplies the day before your shift.  The kitchen staff might not be awake yet to show you where everything is.

• REPORTS TO EVE, TRAINING ALSO AVAILABLE BY MARY H. AND JENNIFER W.
• All coffee-making equipment and supplies are in the kitchen
• Start brewing urn(s) of coffee
• Spankers (and customers!) can drink coffee at the bar or in the kitchen, so set up the creamer, cups, spoons/etc into two logical coffee service areas – one in kitchen and one in bar (set things up so cups/napkins/things don’t blow away)
• Bring coffee liqueurs to bar (Kahlua, Bailey’s, Rumchata, Jameson)
• Make sure coffee is constantly brewing in one of the pots/urns, so we never run out
• At the end of your shift, begin cleaning up and putting supplies back. There are cleaning supplies near the sink. Please throw away any miscellaneous trash, and please clean the coffee pots/urns before putting them away in the kitchen.

Objective of kitchen monitor shifts (12pm-4pm and 4pm-8pm):

• Monitor the kitchen, no coffee duties.

Shift Duration: 3 hours

Hours of Operation: 8 PM-10 PM, 10PM-12AM, 12AM-2AM

Equipment Needed:  Bluetooth tablet (supplied), Sanitizing wipes (supplied), sexy Cowboy/Cowgirl outfit optional. ASSLESS CHAPS ENCOURAGED.

Objective: Encourage riders to enjoy exploring Trigger’s unique and powerful vibrations to each rider’s comfort level.

Duties:  Reports to Trigger’s creator, Jeff. You’ll meet him during your training.

Rules:  DON’T BE A CREEP. THIS RIDE WAS INVENTED FOR THE PLEASURE OF THE RIDER. PLEASE RESPECT THEIR INDIVIDUAL EXPERIENCE AND COMFORT LEVEL.
THEY ARE ALWAYS IN CONTROL OF THE RIDE. SHORT OR LONG – THE RIDER GETS TO DECIDE.

Basics:  Once the rider mounts the saddle, explain to the rider the correct riding position to get the most enjoyment during their experience. You will be trained how to help the rider find the right position. POSITION IS VERY IMPORTANT. You explain the controls and then turn over speed controls to the rider. Once the rider has tested out the variable speed of the saddle, then we will switch controls over to a blue tooth tablet. The APP has pre-programmed patterns. This tablet can be controlled by the operator, the rider, or someone designated by the rider (boyfriend, girlfriend, friend, stranger, person in the crowd or anyone the rider appoints).

Note: Some riders will enjoy the crowd’s participation and some will be more quiet. Follow your rider’s direction (watch their face). Some riders like to “put on a show” and others tune out the crowd. When the ride is over, make sure the rider presses the RED STOP BUTTON. This activates the alarm/bell. Encourage the crowd to clap and cheer for the rider.

CONSENT:  Per Spanky’s Wine Bar Rules, photographs and video are not allowed. Exception only with the permission of the rider and anyone else visible in the photo. ONLY THE RIDER CAN GIVE CONSENT TO BEING PHOTOGRAPHED OR VIDEOED. (example: I am his/her friend/partner etc – That is NOT consent) ONLY THE RIDER CAN GIVE CONSENT.

GIDDY UP!
