These are my three things to look for:
1. Is the club run legally to mostly legally
2. Do I make money
3. Are the people easy to deal with
If it satisfies all of those then I am relatively happy. There are places a person could go to make more money, but then #1 & #3 may not be satisfied. If all three conditions are satisfied & an improvement over you last club... really consider before moving to the new club. The improvement would need to be pretty drastic for me, because I am a very committed person & not want others (including clubs & management) to know that I won't just leave on a whim. Being committed has its advantages in every business, including ours, & a good reputation means a lot.
for better or worse, I would also consider adding a fourth factor to that list ... the probability of a club bust.
It's certainly possible ( and proven historically ) that certain clubs can operate with zero LE attention for years even though the club has a reputation for illegal activities. But it's also possible that a new mayor / DA / police chief etc. could reverse that in short order. So knowing the true risk of a club bust involves having a fairly thorough knowledge of the local situation.
Strippers with no teeth -_-
I think RI has some loop hole where prostitution is kind of legal. It generally isn't a desirable place to dance.
I work both in a high end club and a dump. If you can, go get hired at one of the better places. Work both clubs until you get the hang of it. That way you won't be taking as much of a risk. Good luck!
I agree with Kylea2.
How do YOU feel at the club? Do you feel safe? Are you comfortable?
I also agree with xoAnnaBanana...since you are new, it may be a good idea to get the hang of hustling at a smaller place before moving on to a different club. That's what I did. It's also good that you're much prettier than the other girls, it gives you an easy advantage and can make your sales easier. Most men prefer women with teeth but that's my opinion ;)
but also, rather than comparing yourself to the other dancers, how do you do money-wise and how are the customers? Like I mentioned, if you don't feel safe or if you feel pressured to do extras, then it may be better to save your mental health and try somewhere else. Honestly, it's all about how you feel working there! If the goods outweigh the bads, then stick with it for a bit to learn the ropes.
^^Or when you say you have somebody, and they say things like "you should come with me, since he's not here". I mean, since when an SC is a place to find a girlfriend?!
I totally feel you!!!!!!
While it's great to be the good looking stripper amidst a sea of uglies, if a club is KNOWN for having hideous strippers that give extras, you aren't going to get a good clientele coming in (ie. dudes who don't really care what a chick looks like as long as she'll bend the rules for him at a low price), and then it doesn't matter how good looking you are. It sounds like that's the kind of clientele you're getting, so it could be worth trying out a shift at a more upscale club to test the waters and maybe even fully switch.
This is true, even with clubs operating legally there is always the chance. I tend to not work areas though where busts are common. Twice I've been talked into doing so, & although there were no busts, it was very apparent why those areas regularly get busts. Again though, they weren't operating legally & neither were great experiences. However, as you said, they could have been operating legally & simply had a government change which caused reason for a bust.
I say switch clubs hun. It sounds like you not only don't feel safe at this venue but you are learning a hustle for customers you DO NOT want to attract/deal with. You are beautiful I would get a job elsewhere. I understand the little fish feeling but if you stay here and have to deal with this day in and day out it WILL mess with your head
This has nothing to do with anything, but can I just say that theshapeofamother.com is basically the most horrifying thing I've ever seen?
ANYWAY - It really sounds like you don't feel safe. You should probably get the hell out of there before something happens; whether that's a bust or a mental breakdown. I worked in a club where I was LITERALLY the only pretty girl (Not trying to toot my own horn - if I told you where it was I started, you'd understand...) but it was a club known for extras and ugly UGLY girls. We didn't get shit for clientele and being hot didn't help me a lick.
It can't hurt to try someplace else!
1) try a couple of the high end clubs (up to you whether you work at SkankoRamas at he same time)
2) Move
There is no point in finding your feet in a venue where you wont meet your target clietele or/and learn somtehing valuable from the other dancers.
yes. that's what they do. because strippers are all stupid whores with daddy issues, and our facade of self-respect will crumble when smart, experienced men like themselves hold their own. and if you do, well then, there's a bunch of drug addicts and/or bitches (as in, who have pimps) who'll gladly do what they tell them to do in the hope of getting a couple bucks. so of course it's easy for them to believe you're the one with the problem.
ugh. the thing i hate most about these guys is that they seem to think being locked in their home with no resources and getting raped by them day and night as their "wife" would be infinitely superior to being a stripper. they aren't talking about pampered housewives or wives who are in marriages of equals. all you as a woman bring to the table is your fuckability and ability to try to cook and clean well enough they won't beat you for doing a bad job.
so when they say this shit, remember that.
this times a million. good custies don't go to clubs like that, and the johns who do go there aren't looking for you. you may as well be trying to hustle lap dances on a street corner. find a better club, the kind of place that attracts men who can get quality women irl, but who just go to get dances cos it's fun.
I agree with Shannadior - certain clubs have certain reputations. In my city, there are three main clubs, you go to one for extras, one for celeb watching and being generally pretentious, and one for the standard stag party, guys night out, buy a few dances stuff. I work at the last one, and although the girls at the extras club are not necessarily better looking, and definitely have a worse hustle, I KNOW I wouldn't do a damn thing there, because I refuse to suck dick in the champagne room.
Sometimes the way a club looks (decor etc) is not indicative of the quality of the clientele..or of the club in general. By all means try a couple others, but make sure you have something to fall back on!
Good luck!
^ if the bottom of the barrel at a good club goes home with the same money as the hottest girl at a shithole, i'd rather be the uggo at the good club. but you go ahead and do what you want.
and you might want to be honest about wanting to work there, instead of playing a customer. a lot of clubs will be just fine letting prospective dancers come in to see what they need to look like to work there. and some clubs don't let women come in without men anyways.
