Take a deep breathe and pat yourself on the back.
Fake it 'til you make it. Watch what the good ones do and do pretty much that until you get comfortable and improvise. Go watch the day before or pack several options and leave them in the car while you see what others do in the hour before your shift starts. Try to avoid drinking and do warmups before you go there or in the ladies/dressing room.

Re: i got hired!!! help!!!!
Congratulations and good luck, If you got hired it's because you got what there looking for. You will do fine. Look, listen and learn, take your time and don't expect too much from yourself. I'm sure the management ( if there any good ) will work you through all your training and get you off to a good start.
Best of Luck too you

Re: i got hired!!! help!!!!
Congratulations,
First off get enough sleep. Eat light so you don't get sick. Think apple juice and toast. Any thing with milk and you'll want to puke for hours. Make sure to stay hydrated( drink water not alcohol) because you'r body may not be use to being this active for this long. And if you start to feel dirty, or guilty, just remember that God created the female body, and it is a beautiful thing. You are only expressing the power of desire that God created in the form of a woman. It is beautiful, it is art.
Take a deep breath, start slow, and don't forget to smile!

get a pair of stripper shoes and practice walking and dancing in them! They are hard to get used to at first...knees get wobbly when nervous and legs wear out fast in them.

Re: i got hired!!! help!!!!
Congratulations! Believe it or not, the worst is over. It's not easy, but it definitely gets easier and easier from here. Take a deep breath and don't worry!
I would say definitely get plenty of sleep, but also eat a good meal. You will need your energy. Everyone is different, but I swear if I don't eat a good meal (nothing too heavy) just before starting my shift (I take it to work and eat just before getting dressed), I get major hungry before the end of the shift - stomach growling, headaches...
Make sure you pack your shoes, garter, spare thongs, a couple outfits, baby wipes, deodorant, yummy body spray, a padlock or combination lock for your bag or locker, and breath stuff (mints or Sweet Breath drops not gum). It wouldn't hurt to take a bottle of water to keep in your bag or locker just in case.
All the other people's advice is great. The only other thing I would add is just don't try to think of everything at once before you've even started your first day. Relax, watch and listen when you get there. It'll all come in due time.
Smile and have fun! :)
Re: i got hired!!! help!!!!
Soph, relax. Settle down and try to recapture the spirit you had when you first went to dance then just keep going over it. You almost sound disappointed you've won.
Re: i got hired!!! help!!!!
O ya and Don't use BABY OIL ever! It makes the pole and floor very slippery! Very Dangerous.. I've known alot of newbie dancers that do this. I don't know why though, it seems kinda gross to me..? lol :P
