    Default new job starts tonight

    I'm going to be picking up some waitress shifts at my club, starting tonight. I feel pretty good about it. The club is a pretty cool place, and I like a lot of my co-workers already. I danced at that club for quite a while, and know a lot of the customers on friendly terms, so that should help. I haven't waitresses in a really long time, but I think I can handle it.

    In a weird way, I think it might be kinda therapeutic for my particular brand of burnout to hang out in that environment and NOT take my clothes off. So, here's hoping I make some money!

    I am definately done dancing, but never thought about waitressing at the club...
    There are still two more clubs in town I could work at, but not sure how good business is there.
    It might be a good transition, plus I have 10+ years serving experience...
    Hmmmm.

    Seems guys spend more on alcohol lately than tipping and dances, so waitressing might be an idea

    Eh. It was kind of a crap night. I made a little over $60, but I don't feel too bad because other girls were saying they made $30 or $40. I was kinda shocked that people tipped so badly...I got stiffed three times, and a lot of people were tipping barely 10% -- if that. Just kind of a lame crowd with lots of young, broke wannabe gangsta types.

    I'll give it a couple of weeks and try different nights to see if I can find something that works for me. Hopefully tonight wasn't representative. If so, I'd probably be better off cocktailing at a straight bar somewhere. When guys have limited money at a titty bar, they're going to spend it on drinks and lapdances first. The girls with the clothes on are going to come in a distant third.

    You're at the club I think you're at, right? I almost went in last night and I'm pretty glad I didn't based on your post

    ^^Yes, ma'am, I was at the same old place. It seemed like there were a few dancers who did OK, but there were a LOT bitching back in the dressing room at the end of the night. I don't think you missed anything. (Although you're gorgeous and could make money whenever. )

    It might depend on developing your own relationships w/ the customers as well. For instance if you know which custy has the regular and always buys an hour, can you be their waitress? Then you'll know that you'll get like, at least a $25 tip for instance.

    If you decide you like the grey area... at my old home club, a couple of the waitresses were ex dancers and would do a few dances (for more $$) during slow periods. This is definitely not liked by some people but at my old club no one seemed to mind...

    If you want to waitress in a SC why don't you try a up-scale place that serves steaks (my apologies if you are do...) so at least they are paying more on their check. You might have bigger spenders then what you dealt with on your first night.

    ^^^where she is is upscale; not sure about how much kitchen business they do, but it is probably the busiest club in town.

    My club is one of the most upscale in town, but there are no Spearmint Rhinos in Austin. Who your clientele is depends a lot on the day of the week. As a dancer I had the best and easiest nights Sunday-Wednesday, when the business travelers are in. Weekends are lots of young, drunk crowds who didn't buy a lot of dances. Thursday could always go either way.

    I actually like the way the club is set up for waitresses...there are a lot of extra ways to make money. If you sell bottle service ( a full bottle of wine or liquor, with set-ups) you get a 10% commission that can range from $12 to $50. If you upsell a customer to VIP, you get $100. If you upsell the Champagne room you get $40 (maybe $60...I forget.)

    So there is an opportunity to make money. I've just got to get the hustle down. I figure I might as well try and sell a bottle to every party of 4+ who is spending decent money.

    The manager who explained all this to me said waitresses rarely try to sell bottles. I don't know why. I love the hustle. If I can find some dancers to hustle with, we could sell a storm.

    If you're working with a bartender named Courtney (black hair, giant tits) tell her I said hi. I used to dance with her at the Show Palace a million years ago.

    ^^ I always try to get tables to upgrade and get a bottle! It usually means they've got money to spend and they'll be spending a fair amount of time with me. If we work together, we'll be hustle buddies! I like working together with the waitresses.

    Awesome! I always liked working with the waitresses, too, when I could find one that knew how. Few and far between, though.
