Where are you working? I wouldn't recommend Platinum Lace if you are new, they have a ton of cutt throat girls and the customers are mainly tourists, and when I worked there the fees were high.
I'm working at Secrets. The girls are extremely cut throat there too and there is hardly any customers so it's just not working. Tonight a total of about 7 customers came in and there were 15 girls. I sold a £40 dance which paid the £20 house fee so I made a grand total of £20! lol And then I spent £10 of that on food. Oops lol.
A couple girls at Secrets said that PL was good money. They offer £25 house fee for the first two weeks (but you have to work 5 shifts though). I booked off Secrets tomorrow so I think I'm going to audition, and if I get in I'll probably work that night. If it's not for me I already have the rest of the week booked at Secrets so I'll go back. If it's good, I'll just cancel my shifts at Secrets.

Tonight was actually really good! I think everyone did well at my club tonight, not sure what was going on in LA that everyone was flocking to strip clubs. I stole a regular off this bitch that I HATE because she stole one of my best regs out from under my nose a few years ago so I managed to pull a great night off!

Was good but far too much to drink :/ I try to either be sober or at the most tipsy but I have a regular who comes in and insists that I drink with him, and he pays too much to refuse. I can handle it but I felt like crap on Sunday!
He adores me and tips every 5 minutes. I only made £160 in dances from him but £260 in tips.
Another regular takes me into work and also picks me up-so stress free journey there and back, best dancer friend was working..All in all good and chilled. :)

Maybe it is better now, Secrets is very cut throat your right, I worked for them on and off for 2 years, I liked the Euston club the best, goodluck i hope PL is better for you.

I auditioned at PL and didnt get in :(
I'm going to keep working at Secrets I think. I mean it's okay. All of the customers that come in do have money to spend, it's just that there's not many of them lol. I tried Euston on Sunday and it was shit too but I talked to the girls and they said that it's normally not that quiet. I've heard Holborn and Covent Garden is good but I'm just starting to get comfortable with Hammersmith and don't want to move.

UGH I lost it at work tonight! OMG! I had a great customer but he put it all on a card and I ended up going home with $1,200 but all in funny money... I was MAD, like really fucking MAD, to the point that I yelled that I could walk myself to the car and told one of the bouncers to fuck off. He followed me out anyway and gave me a hug and told me he was worried about me because I seem so stressed out at work lately and that the next time I work he would speak to the manager about cashing out some of my funny money (this is not the first time it's happened, I'm sitting on over 2gs in funny money at the the moment). I was ranting in the parking lot for a few moments and then I got in my car, realized my phone is dead, the fucking freeway is closed off, I got TOTALLY LOST for an hour, driving all over fucking Los Angeles, then I found my way and got pulled over cause I was speeding, the cop was nice and let me go with a warning-- fuck, I REALLY need to take a few days off...

Sorry to hear you did not get into Pl, Euston is open on Sundays? Im not surprised it was shit, but it is good during the week and also on Saturdays, the other clubs are good too, I hear Covent Garden is best now, As far as Hammersmith I have always heard its hard to make money and cliquey too, try the city clubs during the week, goodluck.

Yesterday was the worst shift I've had in the past couple of years. There was a ridiculous amount of girls for the laughable amount of customers that meandered in. My hourly was just a smidgen more than I make at my office job. That just ain't right!
I'm going away for a lil vacation on Friday, so I'm beyond happy to be getting a break from the club while things are dead. I wish I could snowbird and just peace out for the dead half of winter but alas.

Thanks for the advice. Yeah I heard Covent Garden is the best but it's full :( I've also heard good things about Holborn but also that the girls are bitches and the housemum is mean. :/ I'm just getting used to Hammersmith so I'm going to just keep going and see how it goes. The girls are actually ok tbh. A little cliquey but I mean they've known each other for a while so they are going to be more friendly to each other than to me; someone they hardly know. Also, it might be cut throat but when hustling a guy, we'll all be talking to him and all the girls will push for a dance with all of us. They'll never try and sell a dance/VIP to only themselves, which is good.
Today I only made £90. :( I did 3 £20 dances and then one guy tipped me 50 quid for nothing (and then I had to minus £20 for the house fee). The housemum came to have a little go at me because I was talking to him for so long. Oops

Oh I got this from a reg I was trying to bring in tonight, VIA text msg:
"sorry babe my fiancé is being a needy bitch and I can't come in tonight. Delayed response because I was thinking of you while fucking her. I'll be seeing you Monday gorgeous that's when she's in Aspen."
WTF! That actually makes me feel really bad! Not because of what he said, he always tells me how he imagines fucking me (he's weird he always tells me I have to be 2 feet away from him during dances cause he's afraid he'll cheat, RIGHT cause I'm gonna let that happen ::) ) but now I kind of don't want him to come in because I feel bad for this poor girl! He's making her way too real for me. He's been coming in regularly for the past few weeks and drops a lot and I knew he was getting married in three weeks, he's so freaked out about it. But please don't talk about her to me!! I have no idea WHY, this girl is SO wrong for him, she's like the epitome of repressed-upper-class-Connecticut-white-girl and that's NOT what he needs at all. I actually went out of my stripper element the last time he came in to tell him that he should not marry her and he told me he knew that. I can just tell these two people are going to be SO wrong for each other!

tonight was shitt only made £60 and that was from one guy
I was sitting down, on my phone playing Candy Crush, waiting for customers to come in and this guy approaches me. He says "we have a chat? i pay 80 pound" so I was like ok!!
He paid me, then he started talking about how he wanted to lick my ass and all kind of shit. he says he wants a dance so i dance for him and all he wants me to do is wiggle my butt in his face, so I do (but far away) and he starts slowly putting his face in my ass. so gross
i keep having to tell him not to. he keeps talking about how he wants to take me home and lick my ass and how he wants me to sit on his face. ew
thankfully he didnt pay the cover charge for the table so the waiter said we had to move. by that time he was creeping me out so I just got dressed and left. I could have got a VIP out of him tbh but he was creeping me out way too much for me to have to spend an hour with him. gross

Oh god. I got so very drunk last night.
The club was awful, I think the terrible weather kept everyone at home, so I ended up getting hammered with my friend instead. I took home £200 and drank my own body weight in tequila.
Not enough alka seltzer in the world today.

Valentine's Day was not what I thought it would be. My club was DEAD so around midnight I started my mad texting spree of every regular I have cause I was drunk so I couldn't leave and I refused to give up my V-Day to go home with no money. I got ONE reg to come in (after texting about 7) and he spent quite a bit so I went home with $800. All in all not an OK it could've been worse. I thought Valentine's Day was gonna be like CRAZY good!

After working two awful shifts( Wednesday I left without being able to tip out the DJ) I finally had a great night last night . We had a blizzard last night so I tried to call out but the manager begged me to come in. I paid $150 for a cab since it was way too late to grab a train and arrived super late at 9:30pm. It seemed like all anyone wanted to do was buy me drinks but no takers on CR or dances. Some Hells Angels come in and rent out the entire back room. They take two other girls . During the last 20 mins one of them comes out, randomly grabs me to go in and tips me $1040 cash , pays my house fee and tip outs and then gives me $350 in quarters from a jar he had in his car cuz he was outta cash!! I sure as hell took that heavy ass jar of change. My insides were screaming WTF the whole time. Only customer I had all night, best night I had in a long time. Still, a jar of quarters is a first in my stripping career. What a sweetheart thou. Weird but sweet. Billy from Alaska made my night.

Weird night at my club. It was full of bachelor party guys and they just wanted to hang out and watch the stage (while tipping very shitty). I managed to pull a VIP, the guy was an asshole, dirty and refused to tip me, I left with $600 and considering the amount of dances I did it was not good, I left with less than 50% last night.

Last night was *bad*! I went in absolutely glowing and excited. I kept getting complements and drinks, but no one wanted to tip or spend. Two couples were sitting at my tip rail with their arms crossed. I don't understand how men can be all over me and then get *hostile*, violent look in the eyes hostile, when I suggest dances, VIP, private dances. It's happened two nights in a row! I would be elated to make just a couple hundred at this point. I've had to walk away from too many customers because they were either batshit crazy or trying to get too much for too little. Or even try to get straight out sex for um no money at all. That shit wouldn't fly in a brothel, so why would I even risk my job, my health and safety for not even a single dollar.
Jeez! Crazy people aside- last night I met some customers who may be regular potential. And next week apparently a guy is coming back to see me. I'm looking forward to tonight though. It's the last hurrah of the long weekend :)

I had one of the worst nights I've ever had last night. Monday I made $3, Tuesday I made $7. I was there all night and there were SO many girls I could barely speak to anyone, Tuesday I didn't even get to speak to one customer. And, my wisdom tooth is killing me the point I can't sleep for more than a few hours at night, so I haven't really been 100%.
I went in last night cause I'm SO close to my goal, $2,500 away from what I wanted to have for my move next week, even though I never work Wednesday. For three hours not one customer came in, and then this group of guys came in.
I did a lot of dances with this guy and he REALLY pushed my comfort level, like no extras but he was saying really degrading things to be and touching me in ways I am not down with, but I just REALLY needed money and I was worried it was going to be like the night before and no one would come in and he'd be in. Looking back on it it was so fucking stupid, but I had also been drinking quite a lot and wasn't operating at 100%.
Anyway, when time came to pay-- over $800-- he refused to pay, and started yelling and cursing me and saying I had scammed him, that he felt like he was being "robbed." I have never wanted to punch someone so bad, I was fuming but just trying to keep it in. Then his friend got involved and started cursing at me-- looking back on the way they were speaking to me I am amazed that I was able to keep it together and remain so calm. The bouncer ran off and starting yelling at them and then my manager got involved. He gave me 250 and I told him that he was was disgusting, made me sick, and that he was lucky my job was important to me or I would have kicked him so hard in the balls he would have gone sterile and broken his nose.
My manager came up to me afterwards and told me that it was my fault and that he wasn't going to charge me for extra dances but that he should because I'm his least favorite girl at the club, he can't stand me, and that I suck at my job. I couldn't say a word back to him because I knew he would fire me, so I just nodded and walked away.
I went to my car and sat for about ten minutes crying, I got so worked up that I started hyperventilating and had a panic attack (I get them every once and a while) and had to take one of my emergency Xanex. One of my friends came out to check on me and sat with me for another half hour doing breathing exercises with me until I the Xanex calmed me down. I knew they wouldn't let me go home so I just sat on the couch in the club like a zombie for the last 3 hours.
I have never felt so disgusting, so powerless, so used at the club-- for him to refuse to pay after treating me the way he did, and then to be verbally harassed by not one man but three... I went to see my therapist today for an emergency session and I feel a bit better now, but I still feel SO angry and SO sad. I just hate myself right now. And I don't want to go to work but I feel like I have to because I've made $130 in three shifts and I'm moving in less than a week and a half now... UGH.
audrey_k
02-20-2014, 08:43 PM
All I can think is that there's something about me which makes him HATE me... I mean, what did he really lose out of it? Yeah, the club didn't get their cut for those dances, but it's not like those dances cost HIM anything! They cost me something but he was watching TV in his office for those 45 minutes like he always is. I just hate him so much, this is the same one that suspended me for asking him to kick out a customer who assaulted me. I don't get what his issue is with me, he is the ONLY person I do not get along with at my club, like the ONLY one I am on SUCH good terms with every bouncer/waitress and the GM there loves me. I don't know what it is about me that he hates so much. I mean, he saw how upset I was, coming up and saying to me was just CRUEL.
The only person who lost any of their time in the exchange was the bouncer who argued with him for over 20 minutes, and he wasn't mad at me at all-- both of the bouncers, and the waitress, refused to take any tips from my at the end of the night.
I've decided I'm going to work tonight and tomorrow and see how it goes. If I can have two really good nights I think I'm going to say my good bye tomorrow and just spend next week focusing on getting my shit together for my move. If tonight and tomorrow night suck I'll work a couple days next week but I am not working another 5/6 day week next week and the whole weekend, no fucking way.

Last night was a good night!!! I took a week off to recover from being sick. It was also my first shift at a different club a girl friend of mine has been going to. Within 30 minutes we get pulled for a pair of lawyers who got a VIP booth. Within 10 minutes we are both passed three hundred each to just hangout. we got two hundred each an hour later and literally just listened to them brag about all the things they have. No dances at all. That is the perfect situation lol in terms of making easy money. I ended my shift with $775.00 after all the tip outs.

I thought I could make it through the new few shifts but I don't know, I couldn't. I got really upset and started crying and told my manager I wanted to leave and wouldn't be coming back. It wasn't really the way I wanted to go out, but what can you do. I just feel so relieved.

In the meantime, last night was terrible . My blood sugar was low cuz I only had one meal early on in the day, got in late to work as usual ( I really need to get my shit together and stop coming in super late), proceeded to get drunk off champagne that my friends custie bought us. I had a nasty attitude last night and I got the same kinda attitude right back. I did one dance which I hate doing cuz the guys are my club are gross and super grabby. In the last ten minutes of the night my friends custie bought me my own bottle of champagne and tipped me $100 to sit with him for 15 minutes. With my kickback from the bottle ($75) I still left negative $120. I took a cab round trip to work ($220) plus tip outs . Keeping my fingers crossed for Sunday . Gonna do a mid shift . Trying to get some rest and stocking up on healthy food so I can be at my best .

Smh...the managers removed the doors from the bathroom stalls at my club cuz they caught a girl with a needle in her arm. Plus the other toilet is out of order ( permanently it seems) so now we have only one stall to share between 20-30 girls and the female custies.

Audrey - I am sorry you went thru all that..can I please ask that you take it easy w/liquor, especially w/meds? Thank you. I understand how you feel, really, & the mgr. you mentioned is a total ass (no surprise, a lot of 'em are).
I want to say how well you handled the jerks you danced for (& said mgr) along with the total sitch (excluding what I mentioned above). That's a LOT. It's not an easy job on any level, it's extremely emotionally & physically demanding (I'm sure you already know) but when you throw in, oh 5+ jerks it's really something.
Anyway, as far as why people hate on us, well tons o' reasons, none of 'em our fault (especially in your case).
I mean, I have had lots o' people hate on me for no good reason, just ridiculous, even in 'vanilla' jobs..it was so funny, this one lady really young vary attractive started in on me..(i wasn't the only 'old bee-octh in there) I've no idea why, I was very pleasant to her..whenever I'd get up to go to another area in the office..there she was, blocking my way EVERY. Single. Time! Just for an example..
Anyway, I hope I don't sound condescending or mean. I'm glad you're outta there, & you can go on to something better that you deserve.

whirlerz - I honestly never drink, it's just not really my thing-- when I go out with friends I'll maybe have one or two drinks, but that's it. So the fact that I have been getting repeated wasted at work was a sign to me that the environment in my club has become something that I can no longer deal with. When I started working there I was just having a couple wine coolers a night, then it got to the point that I was drinking 1/3-1/2 bottle of Fireball whiskey a night and losing track of money :( in all the years I have worked I have NEVER been like that. I just could not deal with that place anymore.

I've managed to get a 'regular' (he comes in now and then and has just a couple of dances, but only with me, unfortunately) who is the most revolting guy on the planet. He's overweight, has about three teeth, all of which are brown and slimy, and he STINKS.
I've tried not dancing for him/talking to other guys so he can't approach, but he'll just follow me round the club or out to the smoking area until I do the damn dances, so it's easier to get them over with so he goes home.
Last night I finished a dance, and he told me "Very nice, I wish you could stay like that (naked) all night." So I told him that I would love to, and it would be £XXX. He responded by saying "WTF, it would be cheaper to date you, and then I'd get to shag you as well, do you want my number?"
While I was recoiling in horror, he asked what I was doing the next day, and when I said I was getting a sunbed, he asked if he could watch, then offered to "rub lotion on my minge" for me.
He then told me while I was taking his money "I can't stop staring at your tits. And your minge."
I don't know if you guys use the word minge in America, but it's, in my opinion, one of the grossest, most off-putting words you can use for pussy/kitty/vagina/whatever you prefer as long it's not MINGE!!
Luckily, a friend's regular rescued me by calling me over to join them for a drink, so I could tell him I was probably going to be with them all night and I would see him another time!
God, I hope he doesn't come in again! This guy has nothing going for him whatsoever, not one redeeming feature - except for a large amount of confidence I suppose... :/

Last night was the best night I've had at this new club, but not where I intend money wise. I realized a couple of things-
I try to look expensive, but I don't feel expensive. I have to work on my self confidence.
I'm starting a new policy. When someone starts pushing me to go home with him- I start pushing the VIP/private dances. One of two things will happen. He'll take the hint and realize I'm not going to sleep with him but will want to take me to a private area- win win situation. Or...he'll get all offended and not want to talk to me anymore. My time is no longer wasted. Awesome :)
I also realize the management/DJ at my club are really freaking cool. They're all helping me make money, giving me hints on how to maximize my money, and constrictive criticism on how to appeal to a wider base of customers. I really needed that pep talk.
Gonna try one more time tonight. Gonna fill myself with positive energy, make myself feel sexy and imagine every guy in there is Cillian Murphy, Cykeem White, or Tom Hiddleson. I would NOT be shy if some sexy ass mf walked in there.

I mean it was busy but just not really that many to go around. And tbh not a lot of people came from rugby, it was only busy because it was a Saturday night. Shit really.

I have huge boobs. ::) They're magical. I rub them and money materializes.

I had my first shift on Friday. I was working from 9 'til 2. Made £170, so pleased with that
:)
Made a rookie error though and forgot to tip anyone, so I'll do that next time.
