    Default fuck it. I'm going to the cheetah.

    I just realized that the cheetah and 2001 odyssey have equal money making potential- the problem is me.

    So tonight I'm just going to get out there and hustle EVERYONE for dances and make a ton of money- there is no sense driving an hour each way to go to a club that is high mileage and I don't know very well when I can potentially make the same amount if I just get out there and do what I'm supposed to do at the cheetah.

    I HAVE to make money to afford an apartment, a month's worth of living expenses and my first tuition payment by the time i leave august 18th, so I have a month to do it... and I'm just going to do it. I can't stand living here and this is the only way.

    so I'm going tonight, a saturday night, after the full moon, and I'm going to be awesome.

    and I think I'll do well because I'm feeling angry and determined... and that usually results in me being more assertive, which results in more dances. because I am completely the opposite of assertive in most cases.

    Default Re: fuck it. I'm going to the cheetah.

    I just got back. I had no problem walking up to guys and getting dances, or dancing on stage- it all came back to me no problem. I think I just needed a really busy club to snap me out of it- going on a Saturday was definitely better than Tuesday.

    I had a guy-friend come in and keep me company (and he bought a feature dance) in the first half of the night so I could have someone to sit and talk to, which was nice, he helped me feel more comfortable. My legs are so out of shape from not dancing for almost three months, that I was shaking halfway through the night whenver I gave a dance, and the customers all thought I was nervous- i had to tell them i just hadn't danced in a while and my legs were tired. I couldn't believe how much my legs were shaking... it was really bad.

    I don't know how many dances I sold, I paid ouit 85 freaking dollars, and tipped out 23, a total of 108 dollars I tipped out!!! ONE THIRD of what I made!! That's ridiculous.. it breaks down like this:

    3-$15 2-4-1 feature dances= $45
    Stage fee (before 9pm)=$25
    Manager= $10
    Housemom= $5 (who by the way, is a freaking C-U-N-T and doesn't need to be there.
    $3- valet. I could do it myself.
    $5 for 2 bouncers
    $10 for DJ, he deserved more because he's awesome, but i'll get him next time.

    and I have a grand total of 228 in my purse at the moment, which means I made a total of 336 dollars. That is WAY too much to be paying out, IMO, what do you think?? A freaking THIRD of my earnings? I could deal with 40-50 and going home with 280 or so.., but 108???

    If my stage tips were 36 dollars, then I told 18-19 dances including features, that sounds about right I think.

    so... 228 is better than nothing though. I am going to be so freaking sore in the morning, dancing standing upright all night without a pole is extremely tiring. I was sweating so bad.... gross.

    but yeah!! I did it!! yayyy

    yeah, I'm going to have to step down to 6 inchers from my 8 inchers... when I started I wore 6 inchers and it was much easier to dance on the stage and to give dances because i didn't have to bend down as low. The chairs are really low so it's awkward to give a dance when the top of the seat is hitting your shin! taking my shoes off isn't an option.. so 6 inchers it is.....

    I know what you mean about paying out so much! I was dancing in Texas for a just one month and got very used to paying out very little. At my home club in Tucson it is a different story...
    Tonight I payed out 100, walked with 490.
    But, I love my club. If it weren't for the club...

    holy shit. Dancing without a pole and no floorwork and giving lapdances rather than couch dances is WAY more of a workout than I remember.

    My ass is so sore. My hamstrings are sore. My obliques are sore. My lower back muscles?? are sore. my calves are sore. even my arms are sore??!! wtf?

    this is crazy. I guess i'm going to get in super good shape though

    A third is too much if you're leaving with $230. $530? $830? $1030? It becomes easier to take with higher earnings. Plus it looks like your payouts are flat, so the more you earn, the lower the percentage you'll be paying out. That is the genius of flat fees.

    Also, I would not factor in the cost of the feature dances (selling merchandise, right?) unless they are making you pay for merchandise you have not sold. If you're doing a feature and you sell the t-shirt or hat or whatever, you already know that you're only keeping half the money or whatever. Sucks, but not as much as paying out on every single dance. And tipouts totaling $33 and a $25 house fee? I think most of us here would consider that a raging bargain!

    Anyhow, just trying to put it in perspective for you -- you will appreciate that they don't take a percentage on the good nights. And good for you for tackling it head on. I hope you get the money you need together quickly.

    alright so i tipped out 108-45 features= 63 dollars, and i made 336... so that's what.. a fifth of what i made?? There are some girls who tipped out 75% of what they made... so i feel lucky to have made that.

    aww, I hear you about the no pole thing. It just seems so weird not to have one! 5" and 6" heels do help...but meh! I love my 7" heels. They make me feel like a model (when else am I ever going to be 5'9"?)

    Glad you had a better night this time. And this is your first real weekend night back; you'll probably start earning more (and therefore paying out a smaller percentage) as you get back into the swing of it.
