    Default Money in portland

    Is it just me or is it horrible right now???

    I worked Thursday, Sunday and Tuesday (last night) and made 270, 180, and 290. It was really hard to even get that, at the D1 last night there were no more than 20 customers in the door all night, and they didn't even start coming until midnight. From 5-12 it was completely dead, except for about 5 customers that were glued to video poker or the bar. Is it the weather?? The end of the month? Is it me?? It can't be me, because the other girls there were saying it's been pretty bad lately too.

    I hope tomorrow is better..... usually 300 is my MINIMUM, 500 is average.. when I left to go travel (first week of december) I was almost hitting the thousand dollar mark every night consistently... what is going on???

    From what I've experienced/seen/heard, that's definitely not too bad for Portland right now. Things suck way more in many places.

    That's it. I'm definitely going to the Dolphin.

    I worked at the Dolphin tonight and I love the club, but yeah, it was as dead as Exotica and Safari (my other two Portland experiences). At least there was more stage tipping, but I started work at 5 pm and by 11:30 I had about $50 in stage tips and no dances. I eventually left with $250 but sheesh.

    Glad to hear it's not just me. I hope it picks back up again soon, a consistent G per night sounds like a very happy place for me!

    You know what. I worked d2 tonight and it sucked fucking ass. I was also forced to schedule by G. Probably won't show up for most shifts, except the shifts when B. is working. Better vibe then I think, at least for me. I mean, I could have tried harder to hustle tonight, but it really was not good. And I mean not good as in millions of girls, to the point where there were 2-3 girls just hanging out and sitting at the bar at any given point in the night. When I'm not able to consistently flow money, I get fucking bored, and it sets me back. That's when I say "fuck it" and stop trying. That's whats been going on lately for me. I did ok tonight, I made around the $200-300 mark, however...it was boring and stupid and I left in a bad mood. Then somehow I got lost in Lake Oswego on the way back to SE. Yup. I'm a dumbass. Finally got home at 3:30.

    I'm not sure if it's the general Portland suckage or it's just me. I feel out of practice and I'm competing with _every bitch who works at the club_. I saw at least two girls get VIPs tonight, but we all should have done better. There was also the usual plague of flying douche bags. Can you tell I'm pissed?

    and on a rare positive note...I think the solution to this is to just work more. Yes, I said it. I worked on Monday and it was more worthless than tonight. I am personally going to bust my ass the next month because this is not cutting it. I am the queen of working a few nights and taking a month off (my living expenses are pretty low living with five other people) but I'm not doing that anymore...the more nights I work, the better change I will have a rock star night. Also, I'm trying out a million new places. I'm sick sick sick of hustling couch dances. I'd honestly rather work at Jiggles right now (no offense to anyone that works there) because damn, I hate -struggling- for $200.

    I feel y'all.

    I would also like to add...I think that things are going to improve a lot for us in the next few months as the winter bullshit is driven away by spring sunshine and tax rebates come in. I hope so at least!

    Yeah I'm hoping February is an awesome month- especially with casa diablo opening, I'm planning on working 4 nights a week.

    I hope there's a heat wave or something (does that happen in portland?) that forces all the spending custies out of their houses and into the strip club. Everyone is hibernating right now!!! grrrr!!

    Don't they go outside when the weather's nice though? You'd think they'd all want to snuggle up in a nice warm VIP room with a warm body through the winter!

    ^ you'd think right? I notice again and again that when it's crappy outside, it always slows down a bit.

    It is slow now everywhere, but I just keep going in. What's the old stripper adage? "It only takes one customer".

    But next year, I'm definitely going to remember to take more of my time off in Jan.

    Yup. It does only take one. I learned that last night, when I made all my money in the last hour of my shift and most of it off one really awesome, very attractive, fun guy who I really liked. It wasn't enough money but it saved my weekly average from going all to hell.

    D1 in Milwaukie. I saw your name on the schedule, LOL! Looking forward to meeting you. It's a great club so far... so glad I found a place with some class.
