Lol funny you mentioned being turned down by clubs. I did research and called four different clubs in Greensboro and Raleigh and they were all hiring and told me to come in.....They all said they were hiring when I got there. Even after I mentioned that I drove almost two hours out of my way to get there. Wouldn't even let me audition just turned me away at the door. Dunno why, I had on a cute Black dress that had a mesh panel in the front to show cleavage, and my makeup was done/hair curled. <.< It seems like lately I cant get hired anywhere though.

Well, when I went to my 1st club to apply as a waitress, the hiring manager said my application looked good, but she needed to do a background check on me, and that if I hadn't heard back from them in a week I should call them for a follow-up. I never called for a follow-up on my application because I assumed they didn't want me there. If they did, they would have called.

I had a helluva time getting hired out here! Nobody would even let me audition--it was an awful, ego-bruising experience that I never want to re-live again.

The first club I showed up at didn't even let me audition because it was a super competitive club and I had no experience. The second club I showed up at, I accidentally tripped off the stage. I was super nervous and I've basically blocked that out of my memory until now. After trying out two super competitive clubs, I tried out a dive and got hired. Six months later I went back to the competitive clubs and they hired me.

Penthouse in NOLA. They said it was because of my tattoos.

I have to add Polekatz Chicago to the list of places I've been rejected at. I want to try NYC and other places on the east coast this year hopefully I won't be adding any more clubs to the rejected list. So far I've been having pretty good luck getting hired where I want to work.

I have, for not wanting to do a shit shift for a month. Went back, sucked it up and did the shit shift for a month. Wanted to die. Hate the clientele that it brought in. *shivers*

One club in LA didn't hire me a million years ago when I first started dancing, but now I'm not surprised because it was a very urban club and I'm as white as it gets and have no curves. One club in London wouldn't hire me and I cried, I had to send in photos and they rejected me. It was weird because all the difficult clubs in London have hired me-- Browns, Stringfellows, etc-- but not this one.

I've gotten turned down twice from the same club in Atlanta. It sucks because Atlanta has such ugly looking clubs and put of the three nicer ones, this was the only one that didn't require a schedule so now I feel like I have to either dance in the ratchet clubs or travel super far. I find it odd that this club won't hire me because I was hired in a way bigger and nicer club in Dallas with no issue. But I guess that's how the industry is lol.

I didn't get hired at two clubs: I mentioned in earlier posts that one wouldn't even let me in to audition! the second club, i think it was because i was really thin and wasn't doing much pole tricks like the girls around me.
