    Default Not sure what type of club to start at...

    Hi everyone! I have a bit of a dilemma...

    I first started stripping in May at one of San Diego's most busiest and well-known clubs, Cheetahs. It was way too competitive for me, there were like 60 girls working there, and almost all of them were pros having worked there at least 2 years, so my being a newbie got me maybe $40 per 7 hour shift. Plus, the managers were pricks so I stopped working there after about 5 working days. I didn't work at a new strip club till October, where I started again at a smaller, much more employee-friendly club, where the managers and staff are super friendly, the other girls are really nice, and the place is great to work at. But... This place gets NO customers! I mean none! I heard from the other girls this place has such a high turn-over rate with girls, managers, it's insane, and no matter who tries to jump-start this place, it is always empty and rarely are there any men who come in. I worked Thanksgiving with the "promise" that I'd make bank, but walked out with $80 after fees for an 8 hour day. After that I totally lost motivation and stopped going. Since the place is dying for girls (they're ALWAYS short-staffed, sometimes we have to work 10 hour shifts just because there aren't enough girls there), I know I could walk back in at any time even though I just disappeared, but my problem is this...

    Do I go back to the dysfunctional, never has any customers club that's really nice to us girls? Or should I try auditioning at different clubs until I find one I like? I'm not very skilled at dancing, and I posted this in the newbie section because, even though I've technically been gaining experience since May of '09, I've only worked a handful of days at each club. I really like dancing, and I want to stay in this industry, but it seems my options are either nice clubs with no customers, or bad clubs with lots of competition. I feel rather nervous auditioning at the really good clubs since I'm not too skilled, but I really don't want to work at a low-end club to gain experience since they have so few customers. I know this is a recession, and I know becoming a successful dancer takes time, but with so few customers to practice on, I feel like I'm in a catch-22. I'd appreciate any input. Thank you!

    Not living in that area I can't give you any advice on where to apply - but what I will tell you is you don't always need a custie to practice on.

    Practice different aspects of dancing in the shower, out clubbing, infront of the TV, while you do your makeup - any time you want. I personally practice my facial expressions when I'm stuck in traffic. Being open to the idea of someone seeing you acting like a dork might boost your confidence, too - I mean let's face it, you've already been good enough to get hired twice so your confidence should not be lacking!

    Give your couch a lapdance to some of your favourite "workin' ma thang" music, laugh at yourself, tell yourself how awesome and sexy you are, and go watch TV in your pyjamas. I guarantee you'll at least smile, if not feel a bit better.
