What im not dancing? Panic!!!
I've been really sick lately and havent gone into work. Whenever a long period of time goes by without me working I start to panic. My thoughts are: "If I don't go to work, I will start to gain weight", "If I don't go to work I'll be broke", "If I don't go to work another cute girl is going to steal my custumers" "If I don't go to work the managers will forget about me" "If I don't go to work, I might not be able to go back".... Does anyone else panic when there not working for awhile?:O /:O :D
Re: What im not dancing? Panic!!!
nope. i relax and enjoy my time off!
just concentrate on getting better, so you can go back and rock it!

RELAX - Ive gone months without going into work and customers still love me. I havent worked in Sacramento in about 4 months and got a text Friday night from a customer saying "please tell me youre working, I have $500 burning a hole in my pocket" course i wasnt there and im sick and couldnt go so grrrrrrr
then another text "its boring here without you, leaving with my $500" ahhh Im like come over here and GIVE IT TO ME!!!
And you wont gain weight that fast and the managers WONT forget about you. Mine never do.

Yes, I f-ing do ! I worked at one club in Houston where the dances were $10. I'd charge $20 whenever I could, no one else knew I did this (well except for 2 close friends I worked with) and I'd never wanted to miss a day for fear I'd lose my good regulars. Sure enough, I took one day off and another chick danced (who just happened to be one of the close friends I mentioned early) for a reg and when I danced for him again he gave me $50 instead of $100 ! I was so pissed.. more at myself than anything. Gee, I used to be really addicted to the money, like crazy addicted and I'd have to go to work or I'd sit at home thinking about all I was missing out on.
I never worried about the management though, just the money I was missing out on.
Re: What im not dancing? Panic!!!
yea and i like to think it figures shit like this happens but if i HAD been to work he probably wouldnt have sent the text. for some reason life works out like that for me...
Re: What im not dancing? Panic!!!
i get anxious when i have to take time off because of health related stuff and other than that i dont take any time off at all. Since i don't exchange any contact info with customers other than tell them my set schedule and the club phone number, i do worry about them going elsewhere, forgetting about me, thinking i quit that club, etc. And i sit at home and think about the money i could possibly be making if i could only go into work and try. i will say i've gotten a lot better at this ever since i had my BA and took off 7 weeks and realized it wasn't the end of the world.
