    Eh, not really. But I grew up in Arkansas and now live in upstate NY, so it's not like all my childhood friends are going to come wandering in. And the high school I graduated from here was huge, so I never recognize people, though they often remember me. And my family is all down south. So, I'm not really concerned with the discovery thing. But I'm also really open about what I do. Everyone who knows me knows what I do. My parents know. It's just not a concern for me.

    I too am from Arkansas lol but I'm down here in Louisiana right now. Not too far from home, but far enough to not have to worry about seeing old classmates or anything. The only people I worry about is the men that my bf works with so I am working at a club that is about a 40 minute drive from where I stay. I'm not really worried about it right now, but if it did happen I would either try to avoid them or make a joke about it if there is no way to avoid them.

    I've got a pretty bad one..

    Actually it was my first week dancing. It was a sunday (like I could forget lol) and I was working a a kind of famous shit hole club. I went on stage and the first person I saw was my BROTHER and one of our mutual friends. We looked at each other in horror and he covered his eyes and ran out. Our friend just sat there with his jaw wide open. After, I put some clothes on and he came back in. He yelled at me for a minute and when I explained why I was dancing he seemed to cool off a bit. Now he falls in the same category as my dad; Don't ask don't tell.

    I've had a lot of friends and people I know come in over the years but that was the worst.

    ^^^That is the worst. Sorry girl.

    I work at a popular club in GA and I'm from Florida. People in these states seem to travel back and forth a lot..
    So I've seen MANY people I went to high school with and people I know from my hometown.. Also people i know from when I worked regular jobs here in GA.
    The worst thing is when you see someone you don't want to in the club, and it's just so different. If they are in there, it's no big deal, but if you are working there, it's like some huge issue. Always pisses me off.

    You have to stand your ground. And not let them treat you any kind of way b/c you are working there. This is why I like being sober at work, it's one thing to be working a job that most deam trashy or whatever, it's another to be wasted at work and have the person think your a hot mess stripper..

    ur brother?? that sucks.

    i made the mistake of buying a car from the lot right up the street from where i work. halloween i worked for 12 hours and that was the day the guy who sold me my car came in, i was on stage when he walked in so i couldnt avoid him. when i walked around for tips he said i had no idea like 5 times. he gave me a $20 tip n i kept it moving. the next day i got a random text message from him (he went in my file and got my number) asking me when i would dance and do other things for him. i guess stripper means whore because thats what he thought i was.

    I've never had someone I know come in, but that's
    partly why I picked my club. It's not near where I live, go to school or grew up, and it's an upscale club so most people my age couldn't afford to go anyway. I have run into some people who go to my university, but there's 30,000 people at my school and I've only run into graduate students. Most of the guys that come into my club are 30+ so I love it for that reason.

    One girl at my clubs boyfriend came in one night (he didn't know she worked there) with his friends and my friends ex husband came in once and threatened to tell her parents she was a dancer. Those are the worst I've heard.

    M first year dancing I hung upside down from a side stage that had a cage on it, and dropped right down face to face with my math class partner.

    My reaction? *smile* "Hi Shawn!!"
    Shawn: *mortified, fled*

    Just be confident, who cares.

    Hahahahaha. That is great. So far, an ex lover came in. It was different though. He heard I was working there and purposely went looking for me. The thing is. He happened to come in and sit down at the beginning of my stage set. I take off my glasses when I go on stage. So, I couldn't tell it was him. I kept thinking, why is this dude looking so intently? I'm used to being up there and practically being ignored or the dude is only looking up every so often. Then, he came up on the stage to tip me. I realized it was him and got kind of nervous. He typically doesn't go to strip clubs. I was rather surprised.

    Anyways, I grew up in Atlanta, Georgia. I currently live in Dallas, Texas. My family is still in Georgia. It isn't likely that anyone from school is going to walk in. My family has no clue I do this. The only thing is my last job. I am actually not looking forward to a former boss or coworker happening to walk in.

    There was a close call once. A group of guys I sat with happened to include a brother of a former coworker. They keep demanding I tell my real first name. They wanted to go home and tell my former coworker. I refused, but I am afraid he will walk in one day to figure out who the mystery girl is. Lol. So far, it hasn't happened yet. *keeps fingers crossed*

    This always cracks me up.

    I'm fortunate enough to be completely out about being a dancer to all my friends and family. Everyone accepts me, and it's generally awesome all around. Even in my day job, where I'm again lucky enough to work with my fiance at the company he owns with a friend - everyone knows I'm a dancer. There are days I'm at work during the day, and spend time at the end of the shift getting ready for my job at the club. Our female employees give me makeup and hair advice, and I've had male co-workers come into the club to see me. It's AWESOME.

    I once had my dad walk into the club I worked at. He had NO idea I was working there - I had recently switched clubs. I was just coming out of a dance, so I'm walking across the floor in heels and a g, holding my boobs. I saw my dad and freaked. He was pretty weirded out, but happily introduced his friend to me, and I in turn introduced him to my managers and a few dancer friends. The two of them left, but my dad was very proud when he saw me looking great and making money. It was still kinda awkward. We don't talk about the incident. LOL

    I can imagine it being SO awkward for family or friends who don't know (or even those who DO) when you're not out or you aren't the kind of person to be okay with it. I always feel terrible when I see a girl BOLT to the DR because someone she knows has come in. Luckily, our management, if informed of the situation, will discreetly ask the customers/family members/friends to leave due to the fact that there is an employee present who is uncomfortable with their presence. Some poor girls get stuck while onstage or something ... it's really awful.
