I hate July.
I've been here 4 hours and have $45 profit
Girl please, it ain't altruistic... I gotta bitch to someone :D
But yeah, I made $92 tonight. Pretty much from 4th of July until August out here my brain is like "You crazy bitch, y u choose this job?! You gonna starve!"
I'm super stoked. I worked 20 hours this week and made over 3K. :D:D:D
I worked for 5 hours and made $60. There were people, but they were all being cheap.
So weird how the place can be "busy" but I don't make anything, and then on days when it's "dead" I walk out with $600...
Omg I worked all week mon-fri and it was extremely slow like each day! I think July just sucks out here. The weeks before that had been good but all of a sudden this week was terrible. I'm working all week again starting tomorrow so hopefully it picks back up at least a little bit. I've got some financial goals to make and a slow club is not helping!
Cleared $300 on a dayshift. Not bad! So tired now...
Had my best shift in maybe 5 months yesterday. I cleared $600 and I was so happy. This spring and summer have been so brutal. I've had many shifts where it's hard to even make $60 and I pay about $60 for house fees and tip out all together :( are all my old rich men just scared about the election?
People kept farting in the club and it was Soooo gross!!!! I nearly asphyxiated.
I made decent money, but was paid mostly in club cash, and the poor young guy who was my main source of income for the night was shaking so bad from sticker shock and sexual frustration, I was worried he might fall over. It left me feeling guilty, which has never happened before. My manager was a fucking dick at the end of the night. He also accused me of missing stage when I know I didn't. I had just gotten off stage, but our automatic DJ has been buggy lately. I wore little makeup and was told I look like a "soccer mom." I changed and put on more makeup didn't get that comment again, but still felt pretty shitty. Still trying to get over last night's bullshit. Luckily I'm not going in again until Sunday.
I worked my 7th day in a row, made 200, and now I feel like I'm going to die from exhaustion
Finally a good night. Phew.
Also... dear other dancer: Yes, my regular did buy dances from you before. Yes, I did 'let' you go to VIP with him last week. Yes, he does have a group of us that are his favorites and yes, we will hang out together and all get along and share, and yes, we do let new girls in sometimes.
However, we ladies DO think you are weird, and you ARE in fact interrupting his and my conversation. The fact that neither of us are making eye contact with you, while you are draping yourself on him, coupled with him countering your hustle with suggesting we all just have a drink, should be hint enough for you to stop trying to get dances. He is paying me to drink with him and hang out and your intense hustling is killing the vibe.
Fucking weird situation. This girl is getting annoying... He is AWFUL at saying no, it's a running joke like in that movie where the guy is teaching the girl to say 'no'. Most girls he will let me/his other dancer friend run off. This one, he enjoys getting dances from, so I don't... but he doesn't know how to nicely say no without permanently getting rid of her, he doesn't want to set a precedent for her that she can start being paid to hang out, and he also doesn't want to irritate me... so it becomes this awkward thing where I have to like give them permission. She literally won't leave until she gets $$.
I eventually directed them to go do dances and got up to hustle the crowd so she'd get some money and go away. He only got a few but then I had disappeared with another guy, so I think he thought I had ditched him, and ended up texting me that he was sorry for going with her. Chick came back AGAIN an hour later and tried twice for more, even commented that she felt she was making it awkward... well yeah, when you interrupt a conversation trying to be funny mimicking a sound, it tends to be awkward. I think he's soured on her now at least.
Was a slow and crappy night with cheap customers, had problems right from the start with some Mexican guy who wanted a refund for some stupid reason. Got attacked by a group of foreign men and was spit on and got a gash on my face (bouncers are idiots at this club), still cleared 600+ fortunately so I can at least pay some of my bills!
Damn summer months really do suck lol.
My last shift was my 3rd time back at the club... and I remembered why I hate Fridays. So many noob customers who have no idea how much dances cost. But I did dance for some hot college guys, and gave one of them their first ever lapdance. XD
Also, had to do two-for-one specials for the first time in years. Bleh.
And the creepy older DJ has been kissing my ass recently, I think he's fishing for tips. lol
Gotta love reconnecting with strip club shadiness, haha.
Seashell- yeah I'm fine! Just a surface wound no stitches thank God. I agree, just comes with the territory I guess. Could have been worse if I didn't keep my cool since I was out numbered.
^ JFC, physical injury inflicted by other people should NOT 'come with the territory'. Fuck that club.
My last shift... I got waved down by a black guy. Normally I will not approach them (I'm not racist, calm down, I just know they literally never buy dances from me... literally TWO have only ever gotten a dance from me). It was hella dead so I sat with him. He was trying way too hard to make me 'open up' and pretending he was 'relatable' cause he was young... Ugh. Finally he goes into "Would you ever go on a date from here", blah blah blah, and after a short time of that he went "Well I got a trick who will pay $800". I laughed at him and left.
Gotta say, that's the first time anyone's tried to do the pimp thing on me :rotfl:
My last shift I left in the red again. There were 40 girls and 5 customers until 3am, which was when I was ready to get the f**k out of there. I canceled all my shifts until I lose enough weight to go to a good club, because hell will freeze over before I pay a babysitter and house fee to show people my pussy for 6 hours and end up coming out of pocket for it.
i'm really nervous to go back to a certain club tonight. i worked an especially long shift there last week, forgot to order food before the kitchen closed and by 3am i was pretty drunk. i did a VIP with a guy, he paid me for half an hour (what we agreed upon). i remember looking at my phone when we went in and seeing the time. he was difficult (kept trying to finger me) and there was an issue with the credit card reader so the waitress had to keep coming back. i was dancing intermittently the whole time. at one point it had been almost an hour since i sat down with him, i was wasted and exhausted the waitress wasn't coming back (they do that a lot), but i was pretty positive time was up. i told molesty drunk guy i'd be right back. looked for waitress but couldn't find her, my ride texted they were there to pick me up.. and so in my drunken state decided to just tip out the DJ and manager and peace out. never went back to the guy. who knows how long he waited for me to come back? i'm afraid he complained and i'm going to be in trouble. but hopefully he didn't or at least they will be willing to look at the cameras because i'm 100% sure i was in there with him for actually much longer than he paid for. while i don't necessarily think he was deserving of a goodbye, i definitely handled the situation wrong and am regretful and anxious to go back in ugghhh
Working at one of my favorite clubs this week, but I still always get anxiety about working there because it's so nice and their girls are typically really hot and they have high sales expectations. Which I always exceed (I'm already past the number of dances they expect for the whole week and have worked Mon-Wed) but still get stressed out about it.
I do love the club though- the lineup gets little gift bags with candy and body spray and stuff at the beginning of the week, the managers are always checking in to see how your week is and if there is anything you need/suggestions you have, and we have a porter that takes care of all our stage stuff (picking up tips and costumes so we can just get right back to hustling, waiting with water when we get off stage) so we just feel super appreciated the whole time. Oh and doormen are amazing. One told me last night that if a guy tries to get handsy in the back they actually get the guy arrested for sexual assault (because they completely have grounds to do so) which is probably part of the reason they have virtually no problems there. Also a nice change from clubs where you dance for a grabby guy and the club gets mad at you for "letting guys touch you" ffs
There was one club in the city where regardless of how many dances I sold and how kickass my shows were, I was perpetually worst spot on the lineup, so coming to this club and typically being right behind the feature spot is a big change. One of the managers also told me last night that they would really like to see me back here more, so felt awesome about that.
Sadly though one of the really sweet girls on the lineup got fired last night, but she is a bigger girl so technically not up to their standards. It is good to see that they do enforce their own rules, and even though the agency is so short of girls right now that they have no replacement to send for the week, they still made the decision to run one girl short.
I have to find myself a new club. Curret one is under new management and it is now a topless club. It is not just that we have less customers and less profit, personally I will always prefer working nude.
An ex client of mine showed up after 4 months. Was following me around the club saying he needs to talk to me. I told him hes making me uncomfortable and he finally left. I'm definitely not taking his bad breath + b.o + negging me back. So not worth the money.
Welp, experienced my first true August night tonight-- at one point I was certain I would leave in the red, but my night was saved at the 11th hour by a respectful guy who just wanted to relax with a bunch of topless grindy cuddles after his tough work week. Happy to oblige!
New girl started tonight, I've never seen a look like hers before. She was all Shirley Temple beauty pageant glamour on top, but her booty was just... utterly mesmerising. Seriously, I've never seen a bod like that before; me and my sheltered showgirl stripper self would never survive in an urban club, lol!! So she was working it on stage and doing these tricks and making it clap SO LOUD (I didn't even know that level of clapping was possible! TIL), and the hostesses were making the most awful comments about her, totally meangirl-ing and sipping on the haterade. Meanwhile I'm over here completely hypnotised by her booty skillz and watching her clean UP with the similarly hypnotised custies. Why do women cut each other down like that, when we could lift each other up? Le sigh. Anyway, mad props to you, Shirley McBooty :thumbsup:
^Totally agree about being positive... I love it when dancers compliment each other and help each other out. And LOL, Shirley McBooty!! XD
My last shift, there were very few customers and I went down the line of every single one of them, getting turned down for dances. The 5th guy finally bought a couple, and then took me to the champagne room for an hour and a half. My first dance of the night spent $900 on me, out of which I made $600. Woo!!!
Last night was slow with a million girls working and then finally got busy later on, but customer quality was so low. Me and a friend ended up giving up and just sitting and chatting about how the night was a total write off, tomorrow is a new day etc
And then Stripper Jesus took the wheel and two brand new guys came in and asked if they could sit with us, and after about 5 mins of chatting and them doing a couple shots, they bought us out for what was left of the night. So ended up not being so bad after all.
