    Default got my money stolen last night...

    I'm sooo pissed off. I got my money stolen last night from my ankle and wasn't even drunk.. This made me really sad cause I worked really hard for it that night and I don't think I need to tell you guys how emotionally draining this job can be sometimes. Just like last night! I don't even wanna go in tonight and I don't know if I'll ever go back (at least to this particular club cause stuff like that happens all the time over there). Did that ever happen to any of you?

    Where did it happen? On stage? Private dance?

    One of my best friends had this happen last fall right on the main stage!

    Anyhow, I'd suggest you read this thread:

    I'm so sorry this happened to you I've always wondered if this was a possibility ... now I know it is. I've always kept my money in my locker BUT on the other side of that is I always HOPE no one breaks into it while I'm working. Where is the safest place for us to keep our money?

    IDK the safest place, but I know the best one for me-in a purse that I carry with me. I have never had it stolen from there. If I keep it on my ankle or in a garter, it tends to fall off. In my locker-well, I don't trust it there.

    Im so sorry this happened to you.

    I've kept my money in my purse in the past ... usually I would remember to put my purse tucked in the seat w/ my custy ... BUT sometimes I would be forgetful and put my purse on the table. I don't trust myself anymore ... how sad is that? As long as a dancer is not forgetful like me, a purse would possibly be the safest place.

    ^^ Same here, I could never keep mine in a purse because I walk away from my shit all the time. I carry my cell phone in my hand while I'm working and I've left it at customers tables a few times, thank god it was still there when I went back.

    I double-band mine on an ankle garter and I've never had a problem with it before. I'm so sorry that happened to you hun . I say go back to work - now it's happened once, you'll be so vigilant it'll never happen again at least.

    I use a purse. You can read my reasoning in the other thread.

    If you are forgetful: as silly as I think they are, if you are good at exchanging in your small bills for big bills then the lucite money shoes are an option. Even if you just kept your small bills in the garter/purse and the larger bills in the shoes.

    try putting it on a garter at the top of your thigh. fold the bills over the garter and wrap a hair tie around them & it should stay put

    Thanks guys! It was on the stage and they even checked the cameras and know who it was... I always keep it on my ankle with 2 rubber bands. I thought that was the safest way cause we go on stage a lot and I would have to put my purse somewhere where customers are sitting (not a good idea). It was just really frustrating cause I had worked especially hard for it that night and was so happy about how much I'd made. After that, I did not even want to hustle anyone anymore.. The worst thing is: just the night before that, another dancer got her purse stolen and yet another had her phone stolen for the second time in 2 weeks...

    If... they...(I'm assuming you mean management) know who it was then why haven't they confronted/fire that person yet? Has it been the same person stealing each time? Unless that haven't been in since this whole thing went down?I

    'm sorry to hear it totally ruined your night and potential shifts and now you are not motivated to work. I don't blame you in the least. But you've got to stay strong and maybe you should press charges against this thief.

    There's got to be an easier way to hang on to your hard earned cash during a shift besides the garter/ankle and shoe tip thing....besides literally holding it in your hand all shift long?

    I know it's probably unrealistic but what about those fanny-packs from the 90's tied around your waist. I know if might look silly but hell if I'm gonna loose any of MY hard earned cash...fuck that!

    My thoughts exactly! That's a lot of theft to happen in 2 weeks. Why isn't management doing anything about it? Maybe all this shit is a sign to switch clubs.

    Yeah I've been checking out other clubs, but haven't found anything better yet.. the money at this one is really bad, too. About the thing with management: when I found out it got stolen I ran over to the manager and the guys must have noticed that I realized it was gone. It took the manager a while to check the cameras, so the guys were long gone before we found out it was them. The situation with the girl's phone was similar. Both times customers that disappeared before we knew who it was..

    Wow. That is crazy. I was suspecting that it was staff of your club, not a customer! That is crazy. Definitely try a purse or something of that nature. One of the girls I used to dance with kept a small change purse tied to her wrist and never took it off. She just wore it like a leather cuff almost. Maybe try that? You have to get a little crafty to make it look cute but then if someone tried to steal it it's like taking money out of your hand - literally.

    Good luck...

    Sadly, when it comes to money you really just can't trust people.

    I think you mean something like http://www.amazon.com/BLACK-SLIM-WRI...4148953&sr=8-4

    People are pretty slick though - especially the pick pocket types. I don't think I'd even trust that if I were getting in close to customers. Even though it would be hard, a good one may be able to take the whole thing off.

    Honestly NO it never dawned on me. I've never experienced theft or heard of it from custys in any strip club I've worked at. For some odd reason it shocked the shit out of me.

    custys do steal, whether its a drink, a phone or money, its not just other staff who have the evil streak, custys are just as bad.

    and he prob thought this "shes a dancer, look how much she has made, she'll make it back i no time" coz for some reason guys think all dancers are loaded. which is how they prob got round the guilt, stupid custys grrrrr

    i keep my money/tickets in a purse with my phone, and its always in my sight, and before a custy leaves me after a dance ill check to make sure i have everythin still in it, and ill always hold it under my arm while talkin to a customer, or infront of me in both hands.

    im sorry it happend to you, totally sucky, but just learn from it chick, its all i can say, *hugs*

    Folding it around your garter and securing it with rubber bands (use more than one in case the band breaks) is your best option. You can wrap it around a pony tail holder and secure with rubber bands and wear it on your wrist as well. I always do this and have NEVER lost my money. For even more security, when you wear a garter, if you wear thigh highs, leg warmers or knee highs you can tuck it inside for double protection.

    It happened to me this month and yes it was very upsetting, I had my purse stolen and there was 300 in it. (a mini purse). I ws in the VIP with two other girls and when i walked away for a sec it dissappeared and I know one of the two stole it but they denied it, we even searched their lockers and there was no purse, but of course they took the money then ditched the purse. GIrls in this industry can have sticky fingers that are faster than David Blaine's so watch out! Don't be discouraged, what goes around comes around and the person who stole your money will get her own. Just don't do it to anyone else.

    ^^^ When that happens, dig through the trash. I've literally come across wallets in the trash before. I'm not certain, but you might be able to have it checked for fingerprints.

    I've seen girls carry around wallets, clutches, ect. I myself always have my purse on me at all times. I carry only what I need (cell, cigs, lighter.) My purse has a zipper part inside where I store my money. Only once have I had money stolen and it was a $100 that I had dropped. No use wasting my energy getting mad.

    This girl at my other club got fired for stealing money out of another dancers locker so yes, I wouldn't disregard anything anymore. People and common sense these days, yeeeesh
