    Default General help!

    Okay, ladies. I have read just about every newbie thread on here. So please help me out with a little reassurance and answers to questions that I couldn't find. I'm sorry if they're out there, I'm just out of it and having issues with the internet!

    1. I'm excited to start stripping, but I am really, REALLY nervous. I have been wanting to do it for years, but I avoided it because I knew that it made my boyfriend uncomfortable. Well, after a little over 5 fucking years of being together he left me and moved on with another girl only a few days afterward. I've been so depressed that I haven't been able to sleep, drink or eat. I just spent the last few days in the hospital because of passing out from dehydration. I'm trying to get my strength back, but I'm still having a hard time stomaching food. I'm afraid that I'm going to get to the strip club and pass out in the middle of a dance. Does anyone have any suggestions for a healthy, but calorie dense food that will be able to get my strength back up? I'm having a hard time eating a lot at once, so I want every bite to count. I'm also a vegan, so I can't eat any meat or dairy or eggs. And any simple, simple exercise routines to get my weak little body ready?

    2. Has anyone ever stripped after a breakup? I'm a little nervous in general because I feel like I may also break down just from men treating me poorly. I was raped several years ago and, again, my fiance/best friend just left me out of the blue. I'm not stripping to get back at him or prove anything, I truly do believe that I'm doing it for the right reasons and it IS something that I've been wanting to do for years. And at this point, I just really want to make money and start over. I have plans to move to NYC, go to the art school of my dreams that I could never afford before, and travel travel travel. I've been killing myself working over 60 hours a week at two minimum wage jobs, and I just feel like this route is going to be a lot better. Is it easy to remind yourself of the positive reasons as to why you're stripping, or is it easier for the negative to take over? I'm just afraid that if something bad would happen to me, it's just another thing that I would have to bottle up. I can't call my boyfriend or come home to him to cry in his arms and feel better about it. I'm not close with my family and I recently had a very large falling out with all of my friends.

    3. I'm going to see if I can get a job at Platinum Horse in Akron, Ohio. When is a good time to go and ask? I'm not even sure if they'll want me, so I'm thinking that I should just go over in my normal clothing (denim short, Abercrombie & Fitch plaid dress shirt and my hair in a ponytail) and ask if they're hiring and maybe just wear some nice, Victoria's Secret lacey underwear underneath. Bad idea? Should I get really dressed up and cake on the makeup? Should I really be prepared with shoes and outfits and underwear right there? I don't even have any yet because I wanted to get a feel for what other girls would be wearing at the club I would be hired at.

    4. And what do you do every time you have to take a ton of cash to the bank? Isn't it awkward? Did you open a new bank account? I know all of the tellers that work at mine and I would feel extremely uncomfortable coming in with huge cash deposits all of a sudden. How does that even work?

    5. Also, please direct me to some other threads that are really helpful for newbies and have great tips for talking to customers and making money!

    Just check out the newbie board/forum. I am not a dancer yet but I will be and it has given me a lot of important information. I am also planning to move to NYC in two years when I start.

    Maybe this isn't helpful...but it doesn't seem like a strip club would be a good place for you to be right now. It seems like you're mentally in a very difficult place. Strip clubs are emotionally draining on an epic level. Now just doesn't seem like the right time for you to hop into something like that.

    I've been wondering the same thing. However, though I am worried that it may be detrimental, I'm also thinking that it could be beneficial.

    1. It's something that I always wanted to do, but didn't because of him.
    2. It will provide me with the money I need to move away and start over.
    3. It will give me a chance to act and hopefully forget a lot of bullshit - to be a completely different person with a different name, living a completely different life.

    That's why I'm hoping for some feedback on stripping after hard breakups. I feel like it could be good or bad for me, but either way would be an extreme and I am not willing for that extreme to be the bad one.

    I'm kinda right there with ya as far as the newly single thing. My ex was extremely controlling. I couldnt even go out with my friends without him talking shit. We've been on and off for about 5 years-ish. Even during break-ups while he was banging other chicks (and being extremely public about it) I still was afraid.

    6 days after I had surgery, he up and left me. Now, i'm a whole new kind of alive. I used to fantasize about dancing. Even driving home from work I'd think, "man, I'd LOVE to dance to this song."

    Now, I'm also getting ready to start. Im pretty nervous too as far as my first night. Also, I know a lot of people that go to this club, so it's a little extra nerve-wracking. Fuck it though. I'm doing this for me. It's something I've wanted to try for years.

    As far as what I've read, it seems as though it's be better to go in and ask during the shift you'd like to work. That's what I did. I went in as a customer, looked around, watched the girls, customers, how they interact and I was totally cool. (aside from nerves to begin!) They even offered me to start that night! Cool thing is too, you can try it, and if it isnt right for you, you don't have to continue. Thats how I see it anyways.

    I guess I don't have much in the dancing experience (I've only waitressed) but I can say that I'm in a similar boat. It'd be cool to share our experiences.

    It is my personal opinion that you should always look hot, even if you are just going in to ask. They will size you up the minute you walk in the door, and sometimes depending on what the door person thinks, they may tell you they are not hiring, or may tell you they are.

    Your question about stripping after a breakup-yes it can be hard. two of the biggest problems will be the self-esteem beating that can ensue, and then the guys that will tell you how great they are and how they would never treat you like that and will try to woo you.

    re: the bank. I opened an account to deposit a minimum amount of cash in-checking account to pay some online bills with. However, I normally just do money orders in place of checks, or strait cash when I need to buy or pay for something. Depositing large amounts of cash can be weird, but I just say I waitress at a bar if asked, and normally they don't ask so whatever. I deposit once a week, but again for me it is minimal. A friend of mine deposits twice a week, in larger sums, and it hasn't been a problem for her yet.

    re: great tips/making money. Take some time and look at the threads in hustle hut. also check out www.stripandgrowrich.com The money you spend to sign up you will make back in one night, maybe two, and a free site is www.howtostrip.org they will both help.

    I also wanted to ask - is it okay to go in and ask about hiring at night? I don't get out of work until 10:30pm, is that a strange time to go to a strip club when you're looking for a job there?

    I went in there at like 9:30 p.m. Talked to management between 10 and 11pm

    Oh I know Bank of America ATMs, you can actually deposit cash after hours through their ATMs! I just deposited money today like that (sunday).

    edit: Im not suggesting going to the ATM late after your shift, just that its always available to deposit without having to talk to people at a desk.

    I usually find going before 6pm is better, that is when the manager is there, is relaxed and calm and better in general. At when after 9ish their running around, lots of girls, lots of customers, him running around. So you should go when their not busy and ask for the shift you want if they do that. Other than that its usally go and leave.
