    Default Leaving Strip Clubs and SW

    I'm leaving SW and it's likely to be a permanent departure. I was never a regular poster or visitor here, anyway.

    I quit the club I was working at to start my own business and I have no interest in working at any of the other clubs here in Hawaii. I have ZERO plans to ever go back to my old club. Too much BS going-on there and it was driving me crazy.

    Strip clubs aren't part of my life anymore. I started DJing in 1987 at a club called "The Classic Cat". It was a good gig and I was able to move-out from home and live on my own at the age of twenty-one. I worked at a couple of clubs after that, until I ended-up at the last one. Clubs here aren't fun anymore, from my perspective. At least, not as fun as they used to be. Too many problems, too many drugs and no light at the end of the tunnel, from my perspective.

    Less than a month after I quit the club, one of the girls, who was having psychological problems, committed suicide by jumping from her patio. I was so glad that I wasn't working there at the time. A year or so before that, another girl, a waitress who was going-through a nasty divorce and child custody battle, committed suicide at her home with sleeping pills and I nearly went crazy from my own feelings of grief when I heard the news

    There are too many bad memories of my life working in clubs here in Honolulu and not nearly enough good ones for me to continue to stay in the business.

    Since I no longer work in a club and am unlikely to return to one, if things go the way I want, I think it would be best for me to say goodbye to SW.

    I am wishing everyone all the best. Good luck and take care of yourselves.

    Im sorry about all of those bad memories. But can happen outside of the industry as well. If sounds like you think its because they were in that industry that they did those things, i can tell you its not. Its because of things outside the industry that caused the to do that. People dont jump off a balcony or take pills coz they danced on a poll.' Its coz other things we unbearable.

    But anyway, good luck with your business. and have a nice(r) life.

    I'm very sorry to hear about your co-workers. If it's any consolation, they are at peace now. Congrats on starting a new chapter in your life. I wish you great success!

    Good Luck to you Duane! I hope your business works out for the best. Sorry that you've had to witness so much sadness. Pookie is right, it's the things outside the club that lead people to do things most of the time. I understand where you are coming from though. I too at times get overwhelmed with seeing people at work waste away or hurt themselves. It can be heart breaking...after awhile these people become like family almost. So my heart goes out to you. Good luck though and keep in touch...I do believe you have my email.
