how much did you make this week?
there have been plenty of threads recently about girls not making money. i just wanted to do a quick poll to see what our averages are right now. the poll is anonymous, so please be honest. you don't have to post a response unless you want to. the days should include last weekend (starting on saturday) up till and including yesterday (friday). AND PLEASE, only respond if you worked AT LEAST 4 shifts.
if you worked less than 4 shifts and you really want to tell us, go ahead, just DON'T VOTE ON THE POLL.

Re: how much did you make this week?
I worked 4 shifts -- monday, tuesday, wednesday, friday -- and did pretty well. Average/high for me. I voted, but I don't know if we're saying numbers in this poll, so I guess I won't say how much I made.
We do have a ton of girls lately, but I've been lucky enough to sniff out some good customers lately, too.

Re: how much did you make this week?
I worked last Saturday, and then this Thursday, Friday, and today. I've been at a couple of decent clubs, so right now I'm happy with what I'm making. Hopefully I get lucky these next couple weeks, because it's been *really* slow at a couple of places.

Re: how much did you make this week?
I've done pretty good this week considering im at a gig with no private dancing at all. Its all paid stage. I don't know im somewhat pulling myself out of debt but not enough *sigh*
Anyway im happy with what I made. Im lucky I know i'll make apx the same every week I work. Though it requires working Mon - Sat every week.

Re: how much did you make this week?
I have to say that this year is up for me in total numbers from last year, and at first I thought maybe I'd worked more days but that turns out not to be the case (unless I work 14 more shifts between now and Dec 31, which I can safely say is not happening). I credit this to some lucrative travel trips, mainly, though my hometown average is up from last year, too. I am happy. Could always be better, though!

Re: how much did you make this week?
I did ok, fairly average week for me, though it felt like I was making less. My averages typically only vary by a couple of hundred each way per week though, in good or bad times.

Re: how much did you make this week?
Worked Saturday, Monday, Wed, and Friday. (8th -14th)
Two days were about $200 under average. Boo.

Re: how much did you make this week?
I didn't work enough this week, but damn... these numbers look kind of dismal.
-
Re: how much did you make this week?
So I made less then I thought :( The agency fucked up and booked me out at less then my normal show price *le sigh*
-
Re: how much did you make this week?
Oops! I didn't know that it was the past SEVEN days... It was pretty lame for me... but nothing to cry over (3 days). I would have made up for it by picking up another shift but I had a test and some other appointments. (1k)

Re: how much did you make this week?
It started out okay on Monday, slow as frozen oatmeal on Tuesday, better Weds, and then finally a banging Friday. I was going to work tonight but my toes are too bloody. And tomorrow's supposed to bring 60cm of snow. I can't imagine I'd be able to drive to the club if I tried. Ugh.
I thought this year was worse somehow, but it turns out the money is still somewhat decent when I get back into the swing of things. Still. I remember the time when I could go in on a Sunday and know I'd leave with $700++. What the hell happened to that, I don't know.

Re: how much did you make this week?
K, I'm one of the Under 250 girls. I worked two nights this week and... Tuesday I left early because I was sick and it sucked ass. And Friday it sucked ass again, I had a friend visit, and we had about 23,456 girls working.
So... I don't normally suck too much ass haha.

Re: how much did you make this week?
^^^^ I was wondering! But you didn't work at least four shifts like it says in the poll, so you're fucking up the curve. I pray that's the case with the other FIVE votes in that category and that there aren't girls here who averaged $62.50 a shift (or less)!
-
Re: how much did you make this week?
Under $250 for me, and I worked 4 days exactly. Meh.
-
Re: how much did you make this week?
I didn't work at all this week because I've been sick, but these numbers are scaring me. I pray I have a decent week coming up.
-
Re: how much did you make this week?
I worked exactly 4 shifts, and I voted 1500-2000 category. Up from last year, but I was a baby stripper at this time last year so that's to be expected.

well i voted 500-700 because i made 600... but i worked 4 shifts. so i averaged 150 a shift.. BUT i made 200 on friday. one day (i think it was tuesday) i only made 60 bucks.

Re: how much did you make this week?
Having a $60 shift sucks, but not as bad as having four of 'em, which is what a $250 week is.
So, clearly, the reputation of Portland as a low money stripper town can't compete with the dreary forecast in southern FL, something that I find shocking.
Penny, you're a fuckin' Suicide Girl. Move to Oregon. Unless you have some kind of bizarre characteristic that isn't apparent in your hot photos, I can't imagine you'd have a $600 week here. Also, no touching.
edit: oh wait, you won't dance naked, right? Or am I confusing you with someone else?

Re: how much did you make this week?
I find it hard to believe that we really had 2 girls who averaged more than $1000 per shift... but hey! stranger things have happened, huh?

Re: how much did you make this week?
oops ... I just skewed the survey because I posted before reading about the four shift minimum. Actually, I earned more than $4000 this week by sitting home and doing nothing other than managing my investments. Save and invest, girls - it sure beats still doing lap dances when you're on the long side of 35 !!!
It's also fairly disturbing to see that 40% of SW girls participating in the survey averaged less than $200 a shift ! Earnings this low really start to bring into question whether 'stripping' is worth the time and effort, versus working at a 'straight' job which provides some benefits, which provides something positive on resumes, which builds 'seniority', and which builds some future retirement / Social Security credit. Hopefully the economic situation will improve one of these days, but by most indications 2008 is likely to be worse than 2007 in terms of the general economy. This is even more disturbing if you consider that SW girls typically represent a segment of dancers who are, shall we say, 'above average' in terms of intelligence, appearance, and hustle - meaning that if SW girls are having these sort of earnings difficulties that 'other' dancers are probably having even MORE difficulties.
On the subject of earning over $4k in 4 shifts, that is a definite possibility in Manhattan clubs this time of year. The reason of course is that the big banks / brokers / corporations have already announced that big year end bonuses will be paid again this year. Of course, bonus time in December is followed by tax time in January, meaning that this month's Manhattan 'easy money' will drop drastically over the course of the next few months - as has happened like clockwork for the past few years at least !

Re: how much did you make this week?
I'm sorry I messed up the poll too..I did only three shifts and put it under the 1500-2000 category. Although I did around 1800 I'm sure if I had worked friday night as planned I'd have made only 200 so we can just pretend. Sorry guys!

^^^That's exactly what I want to do. I'm working my ass off to pay off the rest of my debt (debt-free by Jan 15th!!) and then I get to save for the first time in my life. That being said, 2008 will be looking up for me regardless of what the state of the economy will be doing for or against my average earnings.

I can't speak for the other girl, but I put my base pay into my pay for the week. It helps pad my average. Otherwise (without base pay) I'm doing about $700-800 a shift right now. I fight for it though. :'(

Re: how much did you make this week?
I didn't vote because I only worked 2 days this week but I made a little over 1200.
