After I get back in town next week, I'm finding a new club to work at on a regular basis, and I'm going to limit my shifts at my current club to two a week. I like it there, but until I gain the seniority to work multiple night shifts a week, working more than two day shifts a week is not cutting it. I'm putting a lot of energy into my stage shows and I should be more focused on hustling and making serious cash, not $200 a day. It will be worth it to stick with this club in the long run, but right now I can't give them 20 hours of my time a week. Ten is more acceptable while I'm working my way up.
I need at least $500 a night, and I know it can be done. I just have to put in the hustle and find the right club. I've made over $900 a night here before, but it's not going to happen where I'm dancing now, much as I like the staff, girls and owners at my current workplace. The two night shifts I have worked have been $400 nights, but I tip out $70 so it turns out to be more like a little above $300.
I wonder how I should go about finding this new club. I suppose I should try to audition at two places where I think I can make the most money the first week, and then go from there. I also need to quit drinking at work completely.
Just posting this to encourage myself and hold myself accountable.
