    Never approach a dancer outside of the club if you see her in public (at the store, post office, restaurant, etc), or if you do, NEVER address her by her stage name, nor discuss goings on in the club.

    ^Those are good!

    -Never sit with another girls customer if she just walked away for a second, or if you see another drink at the table.
    -Some girls are territorial over their "songs", so don't dance to a song that another girl always dances to. Otherwise, she will make sure you wont get any money that set. I've seen it :X
    -don't loan out clothes!
    -don't borrow makeup from a girl with sores on her face and cysts on her eyes.

    I think some rules change when its between friends or established dancers. For example, while it's generally inappropriate to ask about another dancer's nightly earnings between friends it can give you a better idea of how you are doing in a club. Or, if another dancer is familiar with a club out of town that you want to travel to it's okay to say "how's the money over there?"

    Other things:

    - Don't steal from dancers or customers - it's not a good way to make friends
    - Don't try to short the staff (DJ's, Bouncers, etc) what you owe them, they had to work too.
    - If you do short these people don't brag about it to other dancers - I have no respect for those who do that sort of thing
    Don't you ever sleep?
    Not at night...that's when the stars have rather better things to do. They're coming out, shining, that sort of thing.

    Don't bogart my style unless you can top it. The original is the best and that doesn't just apply to the Law and Order tagline. -_-

    I'm here to make money. Don't follow me around like a duckling. If I have time when its slow I'll give you a few pointers.

    ALWAYS POINT YOUR TOES ONSTAGE!!!!!! This was drilled into me by my old mentor, whom I hold in the highest regard.

    On my out of the club friend's first night she literally followed me around the whole time, stuck to my side like glue, making it impossible for me to hustle without her trying to get a double dance. OMG!!!

    and i still see veteran strippers not pointing their toes. even bigger OMG!!!!

    Agreed, our top girl and I usually discuss our earnings because she's an amazing machine and she knows that I never get jealous and that she's an inspiration to me. Knowing how well she does lets me know what I am capable of and gets me out working the hustle hard even on shitty days because I know that if she can do it, so can I. Plus she always get all excited for me when I do better than her, which is rare but has happened, lol.

    My own rules:

    -Don't offer advice if it isn't asked for. I got a blonde wig and this other girl keeps telling me how much she hates it but it's making me a lot more money and everyone else loves it on me. And even if I think a girl looks like a bag of ass I won't say anything unless she asks because I don't know what works for her and what makes her feel good out on the floor, giving her that all important money making confidence. I know from when I first started that one well meant comment can make a girl self-conscious and ruin her night. Even if I'm asked I will put any advice in a way that is positive, like, "I don't care for that top on you because it doesn't show off your awesome breasts enough but I love the color and this or this would look really good."

    -Don't double hustle and get pissy when I get dances and you don't. It's happened to me, just move on and keep trying on your own. I work with one of my best friends and we double hustle well together because she and I know enough to be happy when one of us gets dances even if the other doesn't.

    -Don't come into a new club and act like you own the joint. We all get along because we treat each other with respect and you'll get along with us just fine if you do the same.

    Bring yer own fucking wipies! Asking me if I have a wipie cause you have to go onstage is fine, but bumming every goddamn day is not cool. While we're on that subject, if I can smell you from across the DR, you have issues. SHOWER before work, for Christ's sake.
    If you work in a peep show at least bring a blankie or towel to sit in. Don't leave your empty lube packets scattered. Spray Lysol and try to clean up your area.
    CHANGE YOUR FUCKING TAMPON IN THE BATHROOM!!! Also it is disgusting when used tampons are thrown under the lockers. I swear, medieval peasants probably had better hygeine habits than some of these dancers I work with.
    And if you're ahem, serving something on the menu at least try to be discreet and dispose of the used condoms. I hate finding condom wrappers on the floor of VIP. Try to have consideration for the sensibilities of others.
    And if you're gonna sell cups or your pee bring your own damn Dixie cups!!!

    It happens. I have 2 songs that I favor and that i consistently dance to and get annoyed when other girls ask for them, when theyre not common or popular in the club!!

    It depends.
    I would get kind of defensive of songs if a house dancer knew that I was the only one who would dance to those TWO songs in the whole club for most of the night for my set & someone else plays it? Idk, that's just me though *Kanye shrug*

    Ha! Love the way you said that!

    I get precious over songs when they are very unusual, I brought them to the club myself, and no other dancer would have heard of it if I hadnt have brought it.

    They want unusual songs? Go do the same kinda research.

    It got to the point once where dancers asked me too many times `whats that song? Who is it by?`,
    I would end up answering with `NO, YOU CANT!`.

    Dont complain that a girl is ruining your money. Unless she pushes you off someones lap in a dance. You're in sales. Adapt.

    I dunno dude. I am not gonna adapt and do a $5 handjob just cause I see some nasty little skank doing it. Extras ruin everybody's money, because once a customer gets extras from one girl, he'll expect it from everyone else. Its like a cat that has already pissed in the corner. You can't do shit about it cause the smell still lingers.

    Great thread!

    If you know someone from OTC don't assume that they want anyone else to know that you know each other.

    Don't pry too much into other dancers personal lives. It's personal.

    If you notice that a custie has an eye for another girl - go fetch her, and she should return the favour when appropriate.

    Be courteous to the boss but don't kiss ass.

    Be professional - don't use your workplace as somewhere to get blasted.

    I think every club has their own unwritten rules between dancers. For example, what some might consider stealing custies(going up to them when they are already with a girl) is totally fine in some clubs.

    From experience, I'd say that these are far from being unwritten rules. Rather, they are the basic expressions of consideration and etiquette that too many dancers happily ignore.

    My 2 cents: Girls, keep your hands to yourselves. Unless we are really really close friends, I do not want you touching me, stroking my hair or fixing my clothes (unless we doing a double, where some contact is required.)
