Best Time for Club Hopping- Toronto?
So im a dancer in Toronto, ON and i hate the club i currently work at. I wanna work at one of the 3 major clubs in Toronto. Brass Rail, Zanzibar, FYEO but i keep comming at the wrong times. Meaning i come too late and they tell me they have enough girls. They tell me to come back and i do but then they are still packed with girls. My question is when is the best time to try those clubs? when are they most likely to be hiring? Also i wanted to know what are the best seasons for making money and the worst? TIA
Re: Best Time for Club Hopping- Toronto?
Strip club managers are notorious for not wanting to explicitly tell girls that they just don't want to hire them, so if you've gone back to the same club a couple of times and been told no, it might just be time to move on and try your luck at a different club.
That said - I find a good time to go in is either during slow shifts (Sunday-Tuesday) or right at opening. Right at opening on a slow shift is always good since clubs tend to be short on how many girls they'd like to have, so to have a girl willing to work show up asking to get hired is usually an easy ticket in. Of course, some clubs actually care about their girls making money rather than the making money off the girls, so it can be worthwhile to go between the day and night shift (generally around 5pm) since it's not quite busy but it's early enough that management won't mind going through the work of hiring you.
Good luck!

If you're going into FYEO after 7PM and Paul is sending you away saying he has 'too many girls' - it means you're not good looking enough. Try losing weight if you're chubby, or cleaning up your look if you're not super put-together.
Have you tried working HOL on Bloor? It seems shit-tastic, but money CAN be made there on the weekends if you can hustle. I had many a $1000+ weekends at that place once I figured out the blue-collar hustle routine.
Other than that, take Kisca's advice. She knows her Shiz.

Everytime i go into FYEO i dont even get to see the manager. I get to the front desk where theres a lil blonde chick, she calls up and then tells him theres a girl and then she tells me they arnt hiring. It sucks cause he doesnt even get to see me. Am i doing something wrong?
Re: Best Time for Club Hopping- Toronto?
Yeah! That's happened to me at fyeo too! What's up with that? And plus 1 on what 4ever said about hol2. But you have to put up with a lot of shit from the men there, it's a pretty dirty club. Hol in etobicoke is better. Do you want a try out buddy? I've been off since September but school is over soon and I wanna get back in the game!

Is it busy there? Are there alot of extras? I work at hol on bloor and its good but i hate dealing with crap and i want to work someplace where i can make money everyday.
Re: Best Time for Club Hopping- Toronto?
Try the east end Caddys....they hire just about anyone as long as you can pay the $20 house fee. Oh and not to mention its a fun place to work, I don't make much money there (its kinda average $100-200 a night), but I sure do have lots of fun shooting the shit with the regulars in the bar and the girls.
Re: Best Time for Club Hopping- Toronto?
There's definitely less blatant shadiness and it's good if you can get regulars. It does not have as much traffic as hol on bloor though. You could also try filmores if you haven't already though the game there is pretty similar to hol2 IMO. I haven't gotten aroun to trying it yet but solid gold in Burlington looks like it might have potential.
Re: Best Time for Club Hopping- Toronto?
Fyi Filmores is totally dead. It used to be good years ago but has totally died down. I last worked there 2 years ago and left of total boredom - there were hardly any customers on a Friday night! I've never seen a club go so downhill it's kind of sad. I'm not dancing at the moment but plan on returning in Jan/Feb.

Sorry for the late reply - haven't been around SW much lately.
Paul chills in the VIP adjacent to the front desk. Tiny Blonde chick calls his cell. He can see you when he says he's "not hiring" (the glass is see through from the inside). Sometimes the bouncers will speak for him.
I sound like a bitch but I don't mean to be. It really is just a matter of looking hot enough. FYEO usually ALWAYS hires. They need new blood. BR is harder to get into, but again - it's all about looking good.
Filmores isn't that dead..... It's just inconsistent. How well can you hustle, like - honestly? And have you tried out HOL on Bloor? Saturdays are pretty good there, but Monday to Thurs are bust.
