    Dizzy Ughhh

    Ok, I have only been stripping for a little over a year. Im 27 but look like Im 18, so that doesnt really phase me. I remember when I first started dancing, I had this smile on my face when I hit the stage, I was happy. Im not happy anymore....I just cant bring myself to even smile when I come into work. I dont know if its burn out or life. I went to work last night, which was a Saturday mind you. I made $20, I have never made that amount ever. My club has went from having 10-15 girls a night to have 20-25 and I would say that 85% of them are f*&^ing the customers. I cant compete with that; and I dont want to hear its the recession. I know we are in a recession but the amount of traffic that comes in the club, its like Im chopped liver. I need to reinvent myself and stop getting cold feet when it comes to trying out new clubs. I have a day job and only one more semester to go at school; but this is killing me. Im really concerned that its like this everywhere. I want to be happy heading into work again.

    I just needed to vent ladies. I know with this industry its some good days and some bad days....but I have never ever had a day like that; and Im talking about even when I didnt know how to hustle. I guess I just have to get into hustle mode and pull my shit together.

    Its called burn out - happens to us all. Im going on 8 months off from my last burn out phase. I've had many in my years. Sometimes the best thing is to take some time off and go back with a fresh perspective.

    I know you are nervous about going elsewhere. But if that is what you have to look forward to- you might as well try somewhere new.
    Women of color:
    Shake your ass and preserve your heritage.
    Bang those fucking drums.
    Do it for the present and future generations.
    Have fun and stick it to the man at the same time.

    You are not alone! I am experiencing the same thing. If you look around, you'll see a lot of girls are in this boat.

    I do think it's burnout, coupled with the bad economy. It is very demoralizing to be in an atmosphere where you're constantly rejected, where you're putting yourself out there and not even making minimum wage, where you're watching other girls perform sexual acts just to make a few bucks. It's demeaning and it makes you feel like crap about yourself. At least it did to me.

    I think the harsher working conditions are bringing burnout on faster and in greater droves. You say you have another job--can you afford to take a vacation from dancing until you get your happiness back?
