I used to be a methhead. Stupidstupidstupid.
*sigh* I apologize for once being the druggie girl. :(
well it's a good thing you quit! ;)
Oh my gosh thank you. I have always wondered the same thing. Yes I think it's everywhere. We got 'em pretty bad in the lame ass bars we have in St. Louis. I kid you not, the bars in St. Louis are very very very small, like three to five girls on a shift. We also have so many rules and we aren't allowed to show very much. It would seem like you wouldn't even need drugs working in a place as small as this, but low and behold, I was cleaning the dressing room and found a bent up burnt up spoon. >:( .
Also the dressing room always smells like weed. Used up gift cards were hidden everwhere. I think if you gotta be fucked up to do the job you shouldn't do the job. :no:
Had this one girl who used to show up drunk for day shift. Day shift starts at 12 pm, why are you already drunk! And then why do you continue to drink! >:(
I digress
I know that some girls had this problem before they started dancing, and that is why they dance, but these girls should look at themselves and say, "Damn I take my clothes off for money to buy drugs." Maybe if they say that out loud they might realise how sad it is :'( .
I don't want to sound like I'm picking on anyone, but I like you am sick of it, but I realise that the drugs were here long before me, and they'll be there long after me. The only good that comes from it is that patrons can spot the crack whores a mile away. This works in your favor because they will ask her for sex, and not you, or they will tip you more for not being one. ;)

Trust me, I've done my fair share of drugs (no more, though!). But, I really haven't seen any girls use them in the clubs for a years. Well, just weed and booze.
I am so so so glad that the club I'm working at is hardcore no-drugs-at-work-period. There's still some girls that get unbelievably shitfaced, but it cuts down on so much nasty crap. Better yet, they have sent some girls home early for being so drunk they couldn't work (though they haven't fired anybody for that, to my knowledge).
Years ago during a dressing room lecture about drugs (manager was warning the girls) a dancer pointed out "If you have to get messed up to be here, you shouldn't be working." But we all know this is an un-ideal world.
PS Keep your bags locked up because someone dumped a packet of No-Doze in my bag once..I was grateful it was nothing worse....IMO the more drugged up a dancer gets, the more devious she is....
You have the right to be outraged about drugs being in the workplace- it doesn't make you any safer, and it's not fair that you have to be around it.Quote:

Even then, the chances of recovery are slim.
BTW- they do know how sad it is, which makes them want to change the way they feel, which makes them need more drugs, which makes them do sad things for the drug.. and then they feel like shit ....ad nauseum.
Educate me, please? What do you use giftcards for? Or is that slang for something?Quote:

cards are used for chopping up powdered drugs.
i used to have a very bad coke problem but i never used it at work.
ive been clean 3 years now.
Rayna Skye, Ironically I have never seen drugs at my club over on the "bad" side of the river. Girls talk about it sometimes and I know girls do them at home, but I have never seen or smelled it at work. Thankfully my club is VERY strict about it and fires girls on the spot.
DUHHH!!! Thanks Miss K.L., I shoulda put that together, I'm a gangsta movie buff. Guess I read "gift" before the card, and started thinking about shopping, knew it couldn't mean that, and ended up somewhere in left field! DUHHH!!!Quote:

Yeah... the drugs are bad all over. Down here crank is so cheap, that half the girls are on it 24/7. It's nasty, nasty stuff.
Is crank meth?
At my club, girls used to go out the backdoor and smoke weed allll the frickin' time. The manager finally had to lock the door and ban anyone from going out it at all--It would get ridiculous. Girls would skip their stage set or not show all together because they were grouped up in the cars smoking. Not to mention it probably looked pretty bad to any cops checking the parking lot.
I'l admit I used to get caught up on the "let's do coke in the bathroom stall" thing. I used to always bitch about girls doing drugs at work, too, but when I did it, it just never occured to me I was being a hypocrite. I'm clean now and to walk back and hear girls sniffling it up in the dressing room is just annoying.
I am glad that there are no drugs used in my club by any of the girls. I do know one who smoke weed, but they do it once they leave, never while working. I have never touched anything stronger that weed, and I haven't done that since highschool. I also don't drink when I work. I stick to bottled water, diet pop or juice. I do know of a few girls who do drink their faces off while working. works to my benifit. They are so sloppy drunk, no guy wants them falling all over them reeeking of booze or puke!
We have random drug checks at the club I work at, where the managers come in, have us leave and go through girls stuff. You WILL be tired if they find any drugs or what looks like paraphanalia. We don't keep druggies for very long, management will usually find a reason to fire you.
That seems like more to me than just a drug bust. o.OQuote:

You know, the sad thing here is ( and we've all had to deal with it, any stripper thats worked a while ) no one can really get mad at all of these geeked out girls. It's MANAGEMENT'S JOB to police their club. If they don't, well you've got some shitty management.
A druggie, is a druggie, especially an addicted one. They will do anything to get what they need.
Now, I'm not a lawyer but I don't think it's legal to just search people's thing without either a warrant or least you being present. A shady manager could use that as an excuse and steal your things. I wouldn't put up with that, I'd tell them they can look but only if I'm standing there.
