    Default Addicted to work?

    I know most dancers (including myself, I go through phases) dread going into work. Well, I started at a new club a few weeks ago, and have been working 3-4 days a week. Tonight is Thursday, and I feel guilty about not going in!

    I don't know if it is because I haven't met my weekly goal, or if I just love working at this new place.

    Tell me I'm not the only one that feels bad about not working?!

    It always refreshes me when I start at a new club. It's easier to work more in a new environment, than to go into the same old place you've been at forever.

    I think most of us go through phases. I have weeks where I can work 5 days,and occasional weeks where I can barely handle one.

    I don't know if this is the case for you. but I've found my cycle really makes a difference. When I'm menstruating or ovulating, I can work a lot. When I'm pms-ing...not so much. But then, I make more money on the menstral/ovulation periods, so that probably keeps me feeling motivated.

    This thread is making me ant to change clubs for a while, I'm feeling stale at my place, maybe I need to shake things up.

    Yeah, I'm going through one of those phases right now. I've been working at my current club about 2 months. My schedule is only allowing me to work three days next week, and I'm dying to do some more. I guess i'm addicted to the money part.

    I had a weekend off, oh this is soooo sad, and I actually ended up going in on Friday night b/c I was bored. I think it's because if I'm just at home I'm thinking....I could be making $X tonight....oh how I would love to pay down my car loan! lol

    My cycle does affect how I work and if I want to also! It also helps that my boobs get huge. :-)

    I'm totally addicted to work. If I'm not at work I feel guilty for not being there. Working is my version of crack.

    recovering addict, here

    I "only" work around 4 nights a week now. I never got burnout, but I physically can't do it anymore. Plus my money dropped these days and it's hard to get excited.

    It turns out I'm not addicted to sitting on guys' laps. Just the money. Go figure.

    I was addicted when I first started, and it made me so much money. I haven't felt addicted again until now, strangely. Now it's like I suddenly want to work everyday, and I resent my day job from preventing me from working more doubles. Strange! But I'll take it while it lasts.

    For me, weirdly, I need to be very busy with school and 'dayjobs' in order to strip as much as possible. It is a paradox.

    ^^^^ Agreed. Maybe I'm headed towards burnout. Or maybe it's just cause we seem to have hit the summer slump in my town and the money is a little dissapointing. I don't love it anymore.

    I would probably be addicted to working if the money were better.

    I haven't been in in EONS, and I'm feeling the need to try again, but, then again, maybe that's me wanting to prove myself to myself..

    Agree! I work 5-6 days a week and sometimes work more than that.. It is definitely like crack. When I get on a roll, it's awesome.
    But then, if i take more than 2 days off, I don't want to go back! I have to stay on a consistent schedule or I slack off for a week, work straight for a week.. it's bad. I forget how nice it is to take time off then I never want to go back! lol

    It is great working a lot and staying motivated. As long as you are saving I'd say it's the best thing you could be doing! Even if I take a night off and go out, I think about how much money I COULD be making-- it's bad!
    Keep up the good work!

    I took a week off probably because I was consistently working 3 and 4 days a week.
