Best Days to Work?
I know we all work in different states and different types of clubs...but I am still wondering....
What are your funnest or most profitable days to work?
Friday or Saturday?
Are Tuesday's slow for you too?
What schedule and how many days do you work?
Days vs. Night?
I am looking to increase my hours, but don't want to get burned out. Plus I want to make the most money in the time I spend there.

Re:Best Days to Work?
Monday nights are almost always my best $nights. I usually work Mon, Thurs, Fri, Sat night.
Tuesdays suck ass (usually)
oh yeah, I usually only work 10-2 on F & Sat.

Re:Best Days to Work?
Mon-Thurs 6-2 are the best...I hate weekends unless there is a special event like a feature in town or special event (superbowl, convention,etc)....
Get in earlier and you will catch the after work happy hour boyz!

Re:Best Days to Work?
Night shift, Mon-Thurs... weekends tend to pull the party younguns' who aren't know for their big spending. Conventions make a difference in that, though.

Re:Best Days to Work?
Friday nights are my best nights by a looooooong shot. Saturdays can go either way. I've done alright lately on Wed's. Tonight was Mon and it was pure shit, so was Thursday last week. I think the norm for me is that Sun, Mon, Tues, and Thurs all suck ass--if they don't its due to pure luck. Wed, and Sat average out to be okay. Friday freakin Rocks!!

Re:Best Days to Work?
I liked the weekdays for a while cause there were less dancers and more white-collar customers who hadn't yet transitioned into "rude and obnoxious" mode, but lately I've been loving4-12 Fri, 8-3 Sat, 7-3 Sun and occasional Mondays 4-12......... More men to drag into the V.I.P. room plus day shifters tend to be regulars and I've noticed that they really like the not so attractive girls in the club. Weekends are also more high energy and I'm in Super Hustling Bitch mode right now so I'll work to my best advantage.
I'll also do an occasional Thursday 'cause we have wrestling matches then, the wrestlers are soooo corny that men will practically beg you to give them a dance :')

Re:Best Days to Work?
There is no blanket answer to this question without knowing what city you are in.
Every city is different and different clubs within the same metro area differ as well.
The old thinking that Friday and Saturday nights are the best is not valid anymore. The "target " GC club customer is for the most part in his late 30's to retirement age. That age group of guy unless divorced or separated is married and has a family. These guys are closet club customers and many tend to go to clubs on the way home from work or when they are out of town alone.
Business travelers unless out of town for weeks on end generally leave home on Sunday nights and come back on Friday afternoons or evenings. The weekend night crowd is younger and is not interested in spending $100+ on dances and paying a girl for her time. So you can see that in many clubs the most potential lies on Monday-Thursday. many people work half days on Saturdays now so Friday nights aren't what they used to be in many towns but Saturdays can attract a wider mix of clientele.
In Houston the afternoons can be good. My best most predictable money there is working Sundays from 1-7. Less girls and the guys who come in come in to get dances and are older. Thursdays in Houston are slow but Friday afternoons on the 1st or 15th or just after are good and the club is full until about 7 with a good mix of older customers. The night crowd is riff raff.
On the road, for example Saturday nights in the smaller towns are better.
Tuesday nights seem to yield my overall highest figures anywhere I work. A weeknight focus is important.
I would work 5 nights a week and track your earnings. Vary your nights off and see the patterns. Don't eliminate Sundays if your club is open.
After a few months you should be able to get a good idea when the better times to work are.

Re:Best Days to Work?
Thursday and Friday were the best days for me.

Re:Best Days to Work?
So far, Saturday has been the best for me, but it is really hit or miss right now. We did promotionals for this one event that completely didn't pan out, I made less on that night [Friday] than I did on a Thursday. On Monday this guy came in two hours before closing, chatted with me for a bit, watched me stage dance, then bought two dances. I asked if he wanted any more, he said "maybe later." which I took as a kind brush off. Then after the final stage show for the night, mine, he askes if you can still get VIPs [yup] and buys five more. So, that was pretty good.

Re: Best Days to Work?
Sunday evenings, Wednesday evenings and Thursday evenings are my best. Though since my club is relatively close to an airport, most nights have potential (after all, on any given night there will be at least a few businessmen coming through).

Re: Best Days to Work?
At my club thursday friday and saturday are best now. At my last club I did best on Sundays Mondays and Thursdays.

Re: Best Days to Work?
My four all-time BEST nights were two Wednesdays, one Thursday, and one Saturday. You never know...
-
Re: Best Days to Work?
Definately Saturday nights. Thurs-Sun is my ideal work week. I have to be really bored to work any nights between Mon-Wed that timeframe sucks a$$ out here in SF.

Re: Best Days to Work?
I think best/worst days are different in every club.
I originally thought Friday and Saturday nights would rock, but they're really not that great. Yeah, the club is crowded, BUT a) there are a zillion girls working, b) there's an overload of cheap frat boy types on weekend nights--lots of guys, but all of them sitting on their wallets and being uber-rude and not much fun, and c) the two side stages are open in addition to the main stage, and i fucking hate dancing on the side stages.
Best nights? Sunday and Monday. i LOVE me some Sunday nights at my club. Not as many people there, but everyone who does come on Sundays is there to spend money and have a good time (usually football fans celebrating or consoling themselves after a game, or business people having some last-minute fun before the workweek starts)...usually only 6-8 girls work on Sundays, and usually they're all really cool, and my favorite DJ in the world works Sunday nights...so it has all the ingredients for a great night :)

Re: Best Days to Work?
Wednesdays were pretty good when I danced...

Re: Best Days to Work?
I agree with Katrine that the highest earnings potential nights at any given club are wholely dependent on the main business model going on in that city. If that city is a 'business magnet' which attracts lots of travelling business guys, then typically tuesdays, wednesdays and especially thursdays are good (work is done, party thursday night, fly home friday). If that city has lots of tourist appeal, then fridays and saturdays are usually the best.
