    Default Wtf happened last week...?

    I worked mon-fri dayshifts last week. It was horrible! Like, for everyone in my club. I've never worked so much and made so little. Like, I left w/ ZERO profit mon-wed, then managed to break $100 thurs and fri. $240 in 40 hours. That shit was surreal.

    Was it like this in other parts of North Carolina, or other areas of the country?
    Is the rest of the summer gonna be like this? Or is it just cuz it's been 99 degrees all week?

    I'm just sort of flabbergasted.

    It's because of the heat. No one wants to go out durring the day when its a thousand degrees out and humid to boot. 240 for the week is painful. That sux. But girl, you already know that a good week makes up for a bad one every time. Let's hope this week is that Good week!

    Well this may have to do with a number of announcements that were made last week or two that will potentially impact club customers ...

    The US congress refused to extend federal long term unemployment checks beyond the existing 99 week limit during the 'last' vote on the matter taken last week ... which will mean that checks will stop flowing to > 1 million long term unemployed this week, some of whom are located in Carolina.

    The Carolina runoff election results of last week may be 'sending a message' about an increasingly conserative trend ... that may have an unwanted impact on Carolina strip clubs.

    Then again it may just be the weather !

    Gov. Schwarzenegger's umpteenth state budget was submitted two weeks ago ... and with the inability of the state legislature to pass major additional state income tax increases, it now appears that tens of thousands of California public sector employees ( like teachers, social welfare workers, cops, park rangers etc.) are now slated to 'lose' their jobs. The state budget proposal also includes the elimination of California state tax credits to businesses, which will lower the profit margins of affected small businesses ( thus lowering the incomes of those small business owners ).

    Of particular interest to Northern California, two weeks ago it became more or less clear that legalization of pot for recreational use will appear on the november ballot ... with poll data showing it is likely to pass. However, this will also result in the legalization, registration, and taxation of California grown pot. This in turn will result in significantly lower 'controlled' pot prices ... thus significantly lower profits for pot growers ... with those newly registered profits now becoming fully subject to federal and California business and/or personal income taxes. This of course will 'drain' billions of currently undocumented dollars out of the Northern California economy, diverting those dollars into federal and state tax coffers instead.
    Lol, we don't live in CA.

    I had average nights most of the week and Saturday was good, but OMFG Friday... I just can't even explain it. A dude offered 3 for $100 then got offended beyond belief when he found out no sex was involved, another guy harassed my friend so badly she was in tears and I had to get the bouncer to make the guy leave her alone, another dude wanted a $20 dance from my other friend (they're meant to be $30) and then refused to pay when she wouldn't get nude (umm LOSER it's a topless club). Lets see, another guy came in and said in his state, getting a dance meant a BJ in the hallway, and if we weren't gonna do that, he was "leaving us little whores behind" (we're whores because we DON'T do that??). Every girl I spoke to at work that night said they were trying to scrape together tip-out just to get out of there, and had a look of total on their face. It was like Punk'd! or something. I made $3 short of my housefee after about 7 hours and the manager let me bail.

    Edit: Oh, and I saw a girl giving a HJ in the couch room, for the first time ever! Jeez

    Last week I banked. This week has not been a great start.

    End of the month. World Cup. What Melonie said. The weather.

    It all adds up.

    I caught this mistake myself and fixed my original post, but you apparently saw my original entry. Still true of California clubs, though !

    I suppose that a larger point can be made that, throughout the USA, lots of recent news blurbs have been coming out over the course of the last two weeks that are causing at least some Americans to again worry about the US economic recovery faltering, the future security of their jobs, their future paychecks shrinking after taxes, etc. Such worries typically cause US consumers ( and in this case the subset of US consumers that are strip club customers ) to cut back on their 'discretionary spending' ... to demand more 'bang for their buck' when they DO engage in 'discretionary spending' etc.

    North Carolina is notoriously crappy. This is the worst state I've ever danced in and that sounds about right. Where abouts in NC are ya?

    I didn't do so well last week here in Colorado Springs-Made a total of a little over $400 for my 14 hours of work, which for me is suck-tastic. I actually decided to take the rest of the week off-worked Monday and Wednesday, then spent the weekend with family instead of busting my ass with drunk customers trying to get a freakin' stage tip from them. Blech...So far, this week has been better-but this being said from just working a 6-hour shift last night.

    Oddly enough last week was a vast improvement over the weeks preceding. I think part of it is because Floridians are finally accepting that it's not going to stop being hot as balls for quite a while and if they want to enjoy life they'd better suck it up and deal and go out. I see the same trend here every time we get our first "cold" snap and whenever the first week of the rainy season happens. Of course, it could also be that I got sick of leaving with far less than I wanted and got my inner megabitch out of the storage box under the bed.
