    Default Harsh my mellow, why don't you. :*(

    So I went out to the big, big city today with starry eyes and pointy nipples. I figured I could get a job at one of the many clubs on the strip, and guess what??

    I got shut down at ALL of them!!

    They told me that they were "full" right now. Now I don't know if that's code for "you are an ugly fat heinous blob, please step away from the stage immediately" or if they were actually full, but right now, I don't care. I am tired and my feet hurt from walking everywhere and I cried all my stupid stage makeup off because I am a big baby. I know I need to toughen up, but I just want to be weepy and complain right now.

    I did get to dance at one club though, and I have to say, I've never been more nervous about anything in my entire life...and I don't know that I've ever had more fun doing something. I even got stage tips ($6!! go me ). The manager was really nice and it seemed like they actually might want me there -- he said to give him a couple weeks and see if he could find some room for me on the schedule -- I figure if they didn't want me there he would just shoo me away after my audition?? Coincidentally, I feel like this is the club out of all of them that I would be the most comfortable at. But he said that girls weren't going home with a lot of money right now and it wouldn't be worth my time to come two hours out there to only go home with $100/night, if that...

    I don't know. I am tired right now. But all you SW ladies are wonderful, I would have never had the guts to go out to the city by myself and drag my little suitcase around if it weren't for you guys and your awesome posts. And it's not over yet...but it's definitely nap time right now...

    Where exactly in NorCal are you? From what I gather Cali isn't doing so well right now, on either end of the state. It could very well be the truth. I have girlfriends in SD that are just miserable. I've noticed some girls coming from Cali over here to AZ to dance....if that says anything.


    Would you be willing to post a pic of yourself? Although I am pretty sure this is an issue of location, I'm just curious.....

    This does so like a good club to work at, as the manager is honest. (alot of managers will tell new girls that EVERYONE who works there makes 1G a night, BS BS BS because every additional girl who works will bring the club more money in house fees and tip outs, ect) I think what he is saying is true. He is just trying to protect the income of the girls who already work there. Times are hard and people are being more careful with their money. Just keep a smile on your face and keep trying. Also, money in stripping has WAYYYY more to do with personality than looks. Try to be bouncy and bubbly OR sultry and mysterious. Those two alter egos make me the most $$. Maybe try a different area.

    Well, I am 6'2 and about 185 (which sounds like a lot, but is well within healthy BMI range), about a 36c and a size 9, which is all proportionate to my height...don't get me wrong, I have my little flabbies here and there, but from what I've seen it's par for the course at some of those places. I don't want to put anyone else down, but I deffo saw girls who are in WAY worse shape than i am...but what the hey do i know?? They probably make a fortune.

    I get that the tall thing puts some people off, but I had figured they would want variety *somewhere*...i mean i get that tiny blondes make money, but that's not what EVERYONE likes?

    Yeah, when I danced, I thought I looked smokin'!! I don't know. Maybe I looked like a dump truck and am in denial!! Le sigh!!

    I was in San Francisco. I've heard it's rough everywhere out here now, but at the time I'm really not in a position to travel any further than that.

    I'm not super comfortable posting a pic, but I will see if I can get a link to one and PM you.

    Yeah, I know some places were just shooing me away, but a lot of them really did seem full. At the club I liked, there were about 4 custies and like 13 girls, with more girls arriving when I left.

He is just trying to protect the income of the girls who already work there. Times are hard and people are being more careful with their money. In the past 2.5 years, my average has gone from 400 night to about 150/night. Granted I am in PDX oregon where the industry is saturated. Just keep a smile on your face and keep trying.

    Yeah, I liked the vibe of that place the most and it just seemed like I would fit in there the best. If I don't hear from him in a couple weeks (and I probably won't, I doubt he's got time to sit around calling applicants), then I will call him...I mean, it's like any other job, right?? I just have to be persistent. It couldn't hurt and I will never know until I try!!

    Now I know I can get a blue ribbon in the personality department...I have no trouble approaching, talking and flirting with complete strangers, and I used to be in sales (which is all dancing is at the end of the day, really) so I know I could do well that way.

    I'm keeping my chin up for now...thanks for the kind words
