I walked out of a club in Dallas owing money once. Dallas and I didn't get along well.
Another time, I left a different club in a different place with $9, after fees. I'm only even admitting it because I know that I wasn't the only one to leave wih less than $10 that night, even though the place was full.
I think once I did $8, and once I did $40.





I've left with $20 and $30 a few times, usually due to horrible weather and a lack of customers.
Last Friday I left with -£15. I didn't feel so good and only managed 2 dances. Th clubs really strict on commission so I paid £20 when I walked in the door, I was charged £5 for each dance I did and then an extra £10 on to of it all. Plus £5 for a cab. I wasn't a happy bunny.





$7 is my all time low. about five years ago. I tipped the DJ a dollar and told him he owed me .30 cents. 10% of $7 is .70 cents!




17$ in an out of town club,other girls didn't make anything either,we just laughed about it.
$85. Before I learned to hustle n go.





My worst now is -$80. F-that. Hope it never repeats itself.

UGH...I walked out of the club I worked at with $10. We prob had 3 customers all night.
Yeah I agree, going in the negative sucks. How much were your house fees if you made -$80?
My worst was -$7. It was during a dead dayshift at a club whose clientele was becomming less and less, and increasing more ghetto. I worked 12-5 but not one single customer even walked into the club until 2:30. I made $12 the whole shift, spent $5 on crappy food from the place upstairs from the club, and owed the DJ $14. The DJ was annoying and had PMS too, by the way so I really didn't even want to tip him. That day was what finally pushed me to quit that divey club, especially since I was also working at a much better club. I agree with Tigers Milk when I think "f-that" about going back to the divey club when I was making -$12.
I only made in the negative once, but I do recall there being PLENTY of dayshifts at the same dead club, where I would work 12-4 or 12-5 and only make $35. There was another club that was frequently dead and there were a few times I made diddly shit there too. Ugh. Horrible. Thankfully these shitty shifts were not the norm...and they occured mostly because of a lack of decent crowd...otherwise there'd be no good reason to work there.
I was just thinking the other day...if I were a dancer and I had a consistent string of really bad/unprofitable nights at a club, and then I owed a club a lot of money for not earning enough to cover house fee, I would probably leave and never return again. Financially it just would not be worth it to stay at a club like that, and it definitely wouldn't be worth it to dip into my own pockets to pay house fee. Yeah doing this would burn bridges with that club, but hey...there's a lot of other clubs always willing to hire, plus at least I'd have my dignity. I wouldn't feel very dignified to know that essentially I PAID to take my clothes off, as opposed to GETTING paid to do it. And I wouldn't do this at a club where I'd have one bad night...I would only do this at a club that I wouldn't see myself going back to.
I quit a club because I had a $60 night. It was an 8 hour shift and at 2am with nothing to show for it, I was pissed. Since no one had made any money, the problem wasn't with me that evening and I decided I needed a new club.





$O. Twice.
negative 40, about 3 times at D2 because I didn't have enough to make housefee and tip outs and pay for my cab, so I owed them house and tips. 54 dollars, last night at casa diablo. blah.
Minus $40- I made enough to give the house all of it. I felt like I got kicked in the face. This was California, natch.
Every once in a while, the spirit isn't willing and the crowd sucks. I think I have a worthless night once a month, but I do work a lot.





$100 for a 5 hour shift, over last summer. I wasnt that sad about it though, because I hustled so hard for it and I knew girls were leaving negative that night!
-$20... it sucks knowing that you coulda stayed home and made more.
I remember about 2 yrs ago I cried when I left with $120. Naive me didn't realize that the biz would go so downhill and $120 would hardly be the end of the world.





Working in big clubs I have made less than I paid to work from time to time.
In small clubs where I work bookings, I had an $8.00 night last week and a $60 night but still cleared $1690 for the week including my $300 club base pay.
Sometimes there is bad weather which was the case last week, and guys just won't come out when there is blowing snow and icy roads.
In big clubs I attribute my loss of money to more girls than customers, and the wrong type of clientele.
meh. ive made negative a few times, but thats cos sometimes i go into work just cos i have to, but dont hussle,spend the night in the dressing room sleeping or whatever,and dont talk to a single customer.
my least amount on a night where i *actually* hussled and spoke to guys would be $50, and that was quite recently. i dunno what happened there, it was dead and there were loads of girls working.
oh god one time i spent a whole nite at the club and we did not get one single custmer but it was we had a tight nit group working at the time we just hung out. 0 dollars but they did not make us pay a house fee to be there either.





negative 20
$4.00 once... but I had to leave mid-shift because I got sick. Club was totally DEAD though. Had I stayed the whole shift I might've made $8.00! lol
