    Default How much time do you put in?

    I'm curious as to how many days and hours a week you work, and which days they are.

    For me, it's 3 days a week. My body (and my mind) can't take more than that with an occasional 4th day thrown in there. I usually try to be there by 7 or so. It takes me about 30-45 minutes to get into my mental selling place.

    Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday I will always be there and I've recently added fridays.

    Traditionally I don't do well fri and sat, cause my club is bachelor party central then and they just annoy me. I'm more of a make my money off of one guy person.

    What works for you all?

    Really bad. I work at most 3 days a week, usually one or two though and I never stay more than 3 or 4 hours. Last week I was in the club a total of 3 hours. I am patheticly lazy about stripping now and I really wish I could go more and make more money but it's so HARD to deal with people sober, as I have been sober 8 months now. When I drank, I worked 4-5 days a week, 7 or 8-hr shifts.

    Oh and I almost never work ofn weekends due to the high influx of girls and cheap customers, I have better luck with out of towners during the Mon-Wed stretch.

    I work 3-4 days a week from 7 to 10 hr. Depending on how much money I made by the 7th hour.
    My club doesn't have a set schedual or set time. But I do it to myself. I mean I am my own boss.

    the maximum I can work per week is 4, MAYBE 5 nights a week with short shifts, and the 5 nights a week was only at one particular awesome club in portland, oregon - (205) because it was stage only, no hustle, and my mind didn't get tired as easily from talking to useless idiots.

    Now.. I can work 3 maximum at my current club, but lately it's more like 1 or 2.

    I used to just do weekend. Now I'll dance 3 days on, take a day off, then 3 more days.

    I am currently retired but considering starting again. At the time I stopped dancing I worked Tues, Fri, & Sat nights, 6-8 hr shifts. I would have added more shifts, but I had a 48hr/week day job. Three nights a week plus days in the office was pushing the limits of my endurance.

    I try to work about three or four nights a week. I've been working three since I've been on vacation, thursday-saturday. I make the most money on those three days.

    I usually stay for five or six hours, go in at 9 and stay until close (3/4am)

    it's my second part-time type job, so i do 2 or three nights depending.

    i don't have to go by any schedule but my own, so I usually do Wed. and Fri. cause that works best for me. I start at 8:30 and finish around one-ish when the club closes.

    i don't want to get jaded, or have stripping become more than my part time money maker, so i still strickly to my gut when it comes to working.

    when i was doing it more and focusing on it more it became less fun, and i promised i wouldn't do it if it wasn't fun for me anymore!

    Lately, zero time in the clubs. It's summer, and it's dead, and I'm scared of how little money I'll make. I've been doing topless cleaning and bachelor parties and dancing with a burlesque troupe--anything I can do to stay out of the clubs, basically.

    But during the rest of the year, I typically work 2 shifts a week (6-8 hours each). Like Charlie, that seems to be the max I can handle. I'd like to be able to work more and still feel like myself, but I haven't learned how to yet.

    ^ Exactly. It's so crazy. When I work too much, my self-esteem goes down, my body hates me, I don't feel sexy (sex life goes in the shitter), etc. etc. I am FLOORED by women who can dance 6 times a week for years on end. Floored. I wish I could do that...for real. But I can only do my very best when working 1 or 2 times a week. Blah.

    I try to work 3 days a week, but that doesn't always happen. I have a day job, and I'm trying to get promoted there, so that has to be prioritized. I always work friday and sunday nights, and I have my own lil' schedule for that...... I try to be at work by 8. If I'm not getting ready by 630 at the latest, it throws my whole groove off.

    I have my own little ritual. I light my candles (spiritual ones), hop in the shower and shave if i haven't already, turn on the hair straightener, put on lotion, do my makeup, then straighten my hair and get dressed. When I get to work, I get a drink, head back, rat my hair up, then get dressed and do my lips up. By that time I'm fully in the groove of things.

    4 days a week, 5-8 hours a shift. Any more than that is just suicide for me.

    I KNOW!!!! me too!!! Having a ritual really made a difference for me. I shower, do my hair and most of the makeup (leaving lips and lashes to do at the club)

    While I'm doing that I watch/listen to the Strip and grow rich videos to get selling points in my mind for the night. I really notice a difference in my attitude when I do this. And of course, I browse hustle hut and write down the good ones to take with me. I love my ritual.

    ^^^^ lol I'm glad to hear that some of you guys do the same thing as me! my poor boyfriend, he's learned that it's a BAD idea to interupt my routine unless he comes bearing wine or a grilled cheese sandwich...... bless his heart, he's VERY supportive, and comes bearing compliments (i've trained him well).

    I haven't been doing really well money wise lately, I think I need to go back to my vegas schedule. Nap, workout, shower, drink, hair, makeup, drive, change, drink, hustle.

    i guess i'm just spoiled since dancing isn't my main income, so i'm being lazy

    I work 5-6 nights a week. I generally take off Sundays and Mondays cause my main club is dead, sometimes I'll take off a Wednesday instead of a Monday.

    Nights I do well on are random. Tuesdays are my good luck days, I usually dont get that many dances but always somehow get lucky with tips. Wednesdays and Saturdays are hit and miss. Thursdays suck. Fridays are best.

    I am not currently dancing but when I was, before I got preg, we were required to work 2 shifts a week. If you came in early (3-5), you could get off early after working an 8 hour shift. I always opted for fri n sat nights (bc I was in school fulltime an hour away) n coming in around 8-9 and workin til close (2), and did very well....

    I am currently camming, so w/o a fulltimebabysitter or choosing to have our family watch her (dont want them to find out), I am currently putting in 20-30 hours per week, with help of her daddy watching her while he is home from work...

    When I was in France I worked five or six nights a week for two months which I found tough. You had to do a minimum of five nights a week to stay in club accommodation. At least I didn't have a day job but I was revising for an exam. And in that club it closed later if it was busy, which wasn't good for my sleeping pattern. No wonder I failed the exam!

    In New York I worked five nights a week for two months and I plan to again in France. Does anyone else just ache CONSTANTLY? After about three or four weeks I was starting to get tired. Thankfully (?) I didn't have a ton of friends in New York so I was like, what else am I really going to be doing with more time off?

    Both times I had a lot of time off - like two or three weeks minimum - between dancing that schedule and doing something else.
