I just started dancing this week, and worked 3 day shifts (M, W, F). My dilemma is this. After 4 or 5 hours, I want to go home. Even when I am making good money and the place is beginning to fill up (which is usually right around 4 or 5pm). I am tired out, usually shaky and hungry, and just generally "icky" and lose my motivation.
Technically, our day shift is from 11am-6pm. How long do YOU work? Do you take breaks? How do you keep your energy up and your motivation high?
I have been pulling decent money for my little 4 hour stints. Usually right around $100 an hour. I think I could really bank if I could toughen up and make it the full 7 hours. I just can't do it at this point, and need to know how!![]()
I have issues with sitting down to eat a real meal at work (not real crazy about it). I also don't do energy drinks or caffeine in general (or alcohol). I just don't eat at work (maybe I should start eating protein bars?). I do drink a TON of water the entire time, so I'm always running to use the bathroom. I will take my shoes off for 2 or 3 minutes in the DR, but then I feel like I need to get back out there.
I would love some tips and advice on how to make staying for the full shift, more bearable. This is the biggest thing holding me back from my full potential right now.
Thank you ladies!
