    Default i'll never work saturday again.

    really. never again.

    i've been doing very well working weeknights, + sunday night. i've skipped fridays & saturdays to steer clear from the party crowd & one too many girls that i've heard consume my club on the weekends.

    what possessed me to work this saturday, i really don't know.

    in the first thirty minutes i was granted the wonderful task by the manager to "help out/watch out" for a new girl... who was nice enough, but after 20 minutes of explaining the club to her, i realized i wasn't going to make any money this way.

    so then i go over to the manager, to ask him very nicely if i can leave miss new girl alone for a while. he's standing behind the bar, i begin talking and then the peice of wood that opens up and down to let you behind the bar and whatnot, falls on my face. not a light peice of wood by any means. but a heavy, dense, 30 pound, something like a 4x4... lands smack on my eyes and nose.

    blood everywhere. black eyes. & broken nose. & me crying like a baby. in my first 30 minutes!!!

    fabulous.

    luckily, management waived my house fee & i left with a whopping $37.

    i'll take this as a sign not to work saturdays. blah.

    Holy shit! That's awful

    I go back and forth between hating and loving weekends. Take a break from them for a while.

    ouch....!

    did you get your nose set? since you broke it, it needs to be set back, it will hurt like holy hell. but it can heal crooked if you don't.

    ice packs and sleep along with pain killers are the best you can probably do for now...after you get it set.

    broke noses hurt....

    hugs to you....

    omg that's horrible. and you are wayyyyy too nice. You actually took all that time helping out a new girl? thats very sweet of you because if it'd been me, I'd briefly explain the rules and then send her out on her own. it's the managers job to explain and show her around the club right?
    I usually work on weekends... so I've gotten used to it. hope you feel better. :-)

    I'd say that it was a sign to never, ever do Sat. nights again

    yes, it usually is the managers job, & i think he did a little bit. but she was very nice, so i didn't mind it to much for the first 10 minutes. but then she wanted to talk. you know, about life. um, no thanks.

    hurt like a bitch!!! so bad, it's still sore. i'm not for the painkillers. i'm working tonight nonetheless. i took of my stupid bandages, it's a little swollen and bruised. but hey, that's what dermablend is for! i didn't let the doctors set it. i'd be out of work for at least a week if i did. if it heals crooked........ fack.

    be very glad you didn't come in saturday. one too many girls. i finally saw why the club can sometimes be labeled as "ghetto." no thanks. i'll stick to my weeknights.

    I'm suprised they would make you do that, especially on a Saturday night when it is busy and chaotic. Saturday's would probably be overwhelming for someone who is new to dancing. Most clubs I've worked in would only hold auditions/let you start working on like Tues-Thurs nights, when it is slower.

    I talked to a girl at our club today who said she walked with $25 sat. night, after 8 hours. She's a pretty girl too, so that was crazy . Weird night I guess.

    I walked by that thing that hit you on the head today and cringed thinking about it. It's seriously big. It's like a whole fold down counter top.

    I wish you lots of luck tonight. It was slow when I left, but hopefully when the stupid football games are over it'll pick up!

    Oh chica! I hope youre ok! Thats horrible!

    I hate Friday nights. Unfortunately Im only able to work Fri/Sat so Im stuck. I've been a weekender for a while now. It took some time to change my hustle/style to deal with the different crowd but now I couldn't imagine working weeknights.

    Yeah, Saturday Night freaking sucked for me too. I just did not have the patience for all the assholes. I barely made anything. They always try to get me to 'hang out with them' after work. Fuck you cheap ass guys!

    Yeah, don't blame ya at all.

    I hope you're feeling better and that your nose is healing up well.

    As far as working Fri/Sat nights go...

    I see I am not the only one who has come to hate them. For some reason I do better on Sat. night than on Friday night, but Friday nights ...ugh. The bar is filled with drunk bar regulars who rarely buy dances, younger drunk guys who don't tip but want to take me out for dinner, and people who just don't get it. I can't stand the party crowd. I think the only way I could tolerate them would be to get drunk myself, and that's not gonna happen.

    Yeah. Boycott Sat nights, or take a break from them. It's a sign.

    friday and saturday are my top earning nights. weeknights are too slow for me im not into talking to customers so i prefer it to be really busy.

    the crowd can be as annoying as anything but there is no way i could do the whole slow night, talking for ages hustle...

    There are many stereotypes about the industry that I work in. Sometimes they can be true but human beings are very diverse creatures and cannot be pigeon-holed into one category.

    Some of the most effortlessly beautiful, kind, intelligent, successful, motivated, driven and ridiculously hilarious women that I have ever met have been dancers. I've met the best friends that I've ever had in this industry.

    I think all the club requires is that a manager be there. I've seen girls come in at 1am, although they don't work the same night, they've been hired.

    & I really didn't mind telling her a few things about the club, but honestly, I've only been at this paticular club for a month, so I'm sure he could have asked someone with a little bit more... seniority.

    yah, quite a few girls said saturday was bizarre in itself. i did go in monday, swollen nose & all. it was slow, but i mean... i've realized a slow night it was you make it. there's ALWAYS someone in there wanting to spend money. i didn't do too bad.

    & yes, that thing is a weapon!!! i hate trying to explain to people what exactly it was that hit me. it's something you have to see to visualize the whole concept of it falling on your face.

    blah, anywho. haven't seen you in a week or so, maybe i'll see you friday.

    Havana, all they did was WAVE your HOUSE?

    That was the clubs fault. If that happened to a customer, think about it they would have definitely sued the club. I think they need to do something for you beyond waving a house fee, or you should consider getting legal representation.

    I am by no means a sue crazy person, but that is just FUCKED UP.

    I thought the same when I read her story ^ and the club is stupid for not doing anything more.

    I have a lawyer customer, maybe I'll ask.

    She for sure wouldn't be able to work in the club ever again if she did sue

    My goodness! I hope you're okay. I've never liked Saturday nights. Guys seem to be more willing to spend money on every night except Saturdays. I've had a few good Saturdays but for the most part, guys seem to be determined to just sit, drink and stare on Saturdays.

    my nose wasn't shattered. although the bridge of my nose is visibly different from the minor break. i did indeed think about sueing. or at least asking if they'll waive my fees for like..... ever. if not a month or so.

    i don't want to sue, because like holiday said, i wouldn't be able to work there anymore! & this club, other than last saturday, has been finacially rewarding for me.

    but meh... we'll see. i'm hoping to at least get out of house fees for a significant amount of time.

    ^ you at least need to get them to take that thing out of the club and replace it with something safer... and go to the doctor, get your nose checked out/fixed, and make them pay that.

    I know this is super out there but i was just reading about how we manifest according to our beliefs and since you really don't like working on weekends... you kind of manifested that in the form of a bad night.... you know? trippy....
