    Default I turned around and went home

    Do you ever get ready for work, start driving and proceed to go home, all because you don't feel like dealing with work???? because I just did.. I simply said fuck it.

    I've done that once because I started feeling very ill on the way there. But sometimes a mental break can really do some good.

    I used to do that all the time, i would feel anxious and paniky and just turn around and go bk home. I haven't done it in like 4 months, which is a pretty big deal for me. I hope you don't make a habit of it like I used to, not good.

    That's why you should do your hair, and at least most of your makeup at home! If I made enough effort to do all those things, then no way was I going to turn around and not work!

    My club would never let me do that. They'd fine me out the ass.

    I've done that so many times. Even will full hair and make-up already done. Geeze, are half of us strippers because we have too much anxiety for an everyday job? Sometimes I just can't deal with people....

    Ladies,
    I totally understand why you wouldn't want to go in to work sometimes -- a lot more hassles than most jobs I'm sure. But from a manager's perspective...employees not showing up is reeaaalllllyyyyy irritating. Then again, it might not be that bad in strip clubs.

    Oh wow. I thought I was the only one.

    I'd get there, and keep driving past. But then I'd feel guilty for not going, so I would just drive in circles around the club..nto wanting to go in..but not wanting to go home.

    I've never done that here since all the clubs I've worked at here make you stick to a strict schedule and don't let you come and go as you please, but I have done that at an out of state club where dancers could come and go as they pleased. I had my hair and makeup done and everything-I just didn't feel like going in. What a waste of makeup, huh?

    Yeah, like when i have a bf. I hate to go home like a jackass and admit I chickened out. So I'd drive around to try and find the guts but then I just get worse the longer I postpone. Finally I have to go home and be disappointed in myself and embarrassed.

    Man, my club overbooks girls so bad, the only thing they'd miss if I didn't show up would be my stage fee.

    I do it pretty often. -shrug- I don't miss my mandatory days, which are just once a month, but other than that, if I don't feel like going to work, then I'll go in do my hair and makeup, hang around, and then if I still have that "eh, fuck it" mood, then I go home.

    and the odd thing is, I very rarely regret doing this. I'm of the opinion that yes, I should work more, but also, since I don't NEED to work a ton, then I really need to WANT to be at work.

    Yep. Totally.

    But I think it's good to give yourself a night off if you just aren't feelin' it. A good entertainer knows when to stay home.

    Yeah I've done it...it's not good to go into work with a "fuck I don't wanna be here" attitude...you usually don't do your best, and custies usually feel those vibes.

    I've come close to doing that. I always just end up going in anyway... not because I'm a saint or anything. Feelings like that for me in the car lead to a strange feeling walking in the back door. I set my suitcase down and see shoes and naked bodies bustling to get ready for the shift and I don't feel like I should be there some nights. It's as if my real self doesn't want to give way to my stripper self in those moments and I feel terribly out of place in the environment.

    We all say this is "just a job" but it isn't. It's so much more complicated. You don't just physically show up and clock in and trust that everything is going to be okay. It takes a lot of mental fortitude to deal with the unknowns and possibilities in a job where anything can happen on a nightly basis.

    have done this numerous times. Will actually go and see how many cars are in the parking lot, as if this is a good indicator of how the night will go...

    I get some major anxiety sometimes on the way to work, but I know that I'll get over it as soon as I get on the floor and that forces me inside. Like Kat said, can't waste that hair and makeup!!! But if I get there and my friends want to go out, it's not too had to convince me, haha. I never just drive up there and leave tho.
