    Default Does a stripclub waitress make good money?

    is anyone here a server at a stripclub? I was considering being a waitress or bartender (although I'd probably be a better waitress) at a stripclub till I've reached my ideal weight...I still have some pounds to lose and I'm not toned enough to be on stage yet...but I was just curious...are the tips good? I'm not the ugliest thing in the room lol and I don't think anyone would kick me out of bed...is that a factor? I just want to know...and how do I go about getting a waitressing job?

    I think it really depends on the club.some waitresses at my club make more than dancers some of the other dancers.i personally have never waitressed.

    As mentioned above, it depends on the club and on you. Lots of waitresses I've seen push pretty hard for their tips, so it takes a lot of confidence to make the same kind of money as dancers.
    Be wary of clubs that advertise for cocktail servers, though. There's a large club in my area that does this, but they only "hire" the ladies to pressure them into being dancers..... after a couple of nights, if you don't want to dance they tell you they don't need any more waitresses and you're out of that job. At a lot of the clubs I've worked at, the same waitresses have been there for YEARS so waitress/bartender job openings with good money potential can be rare. And yes, they do make those jobs available to dancers or former dancers before bringing in someone new.

    yes, looking good is a factor in getting tips, just like looking good is a factor with stripping. but its not the only factor obviously. at my club, i don't see the waitresses getting tipped much..maybe a dollar or two. the most i've seen is a guy give the waitress a 20. i think bartenders make a lot more.
    but you never know until you try! there are girls here from all over the world, none of us are going to be able to tell you exactly how much you will make

    Just go in and ask.. that is how I got started dancing actually.
    But they really don't make as much as you'd think. Most guys tip $1 a drink so it can take for-ev-er to break $100 on a shift.

    If your goal is to dance, just start dancing. You're your own worst critic, and you may find that you can get hired at a decent club regardless of the fact that you think you could stand to lose a few pounds -- you'll also tone up a lot faster while dancing then just hitting the gym. You can also start at a dive if you'd be more comfortable there, but I think you're best off just jumping in and making the big bucks!

    I think it really depends on the club. There are some clubs where the girls will tip you, so you'll make more there than you would at a club where just the customers tip you. The waitresses I used to work with in LA made anywhere from 150 on the week nights to $300 on the weekends, but they were getting tipped by the girls as well, I have no idea what they make here cause I'm not friendly with them. You don't have the same freedom though, I can walk away from a dickwad and a waitress can't do that, and I can give them attitude right back in their faces whereas a waitress can't do that either, so be prepared to deal with some shit-stains who are going to try and convince you to take off your clothes-- guys are always attracted to waitresses cause they want what they can't have. I personally think it's harder to get a waitressing job than a dancing job though, and they definitely only want to hire sexy girls, so if dancing is what you want to do, go with that!

    Yes, waitresses make good money in NYC. It is a little hard to get a job, though. Start going in and asking.

    I served and sold shots at a different club than the one I danced at a couple years ago. I wanted to transition into serving/bartending at the time. The $ was Okay. Not great. I made about $100-$200 or less a night IF they let me sell shots. What I didn't like was that the managers were in control of my schedule so if they didn't need me for more than two shifts a week, or only wanted me slow shifts I was SoL and wouldn't make much. That's something to keep in mind. If you want total control of your schedule and/or really need $ then go straight to dancing.

    If you just start dancing full time you will tone up pretty quickly. Maybe start on day shift. There are fewer crowds and it will give you a chance to work on your hustle.

    I think the difference between waitressing/bartending and dancing is that the former largely depends on quantity, while the later can get by with quality. So if you're in a high-traffic club, as a waitress/bartender you have more potential to make good money than if you are working in a slow club, since, as someone else pointed out, you're (normally) only getting tipped a few dollars per drink.

    I started out waitressing at a club and it really wasn't worth it. It was a good way to get to know about clubs and how they worked, but frankly the money really sucked, plus you were expected to wear heels like the dancers and a skimpy outfit, which is downright hazardous when carrying food and having to go into a kitchen where the floors might be wet or dirty.
    For your own health, just try dancing.
