    Don't go in to work....I never go when I'm sick. No one wants to flirt with a sick girl, no matter how hot she is. Stay home and I hope you feel better.

    I troll around on stripperweb, craigslist, play Sims, watch movies and read fanfiction when I'm bored. Haha. You should probably sleep some too....

    I agree, don't go in while you're sick. Don't wanna get anyone else sick and it will just drain you at work.

    I FB and post way too many things on there.
    SW, of course, OMGPOP.COM is a really fun site!
    failbook, textsfromlastnight, those are funny sites too.
    I always end up at some new site just clicking on links.

    I'll play dress up....take pics.
    I'll clean.
    Watch movies/TV
    Rearrange things


    I hope you feel better though!!

    I wanna stay home tonight, but since this week has been crap, I gotta go in.

    Good ideas!

    I love sims and failbook always makes me laugh.. its going to be a movie and sleeping night for me..

    Deff taking the day off... I got a cold sore on my nose! Im really hoping it wont get worse since I hate them so much.. and I didnt know it was possable to get them on your nose.. Only got them on my lip before, which I thought was weird.. and never in summer! Im glad I have aberva and l-lysine pills.

    Stay home. It's better for you and it shows consideration to those around you. I left Fargo early because there was this one girl who knew she was nasty sick but still came in anyways. I'm an uber germ-a-phobe especially when I'm on the road...

    I wouldn't go unless you NEED the money badly. I've worked sick and never have great nights - you are only human.

    Don't work when you are sick. It will not only prolong your cold, but may make it appear as if you are desperate to other dancers and/or customers.

    -Watch TLC
    -Watch Animal planet
    -go on facebook, oh and check up on SW!
    -do some online "window shopping"
    -drink lots of water and orange juice.
    -sleep, sleep and more sleep

    i've worked sick a couple times over the years if i really needed the money. if it was busy, i'd do ok. if it was slow and low energy, it would suck. in other words,

    but the more important thing is that it was soooooo draining, and it would often extend the time it took to get better. in the long run, it's worth it to just stay home and sleep a lot.

    then, when you're feeling better, you'll be stir-crazy from sitting around at home, so you'll hustle your ass off.

    Stay home and nurse yourself better! If I don't feel 100% then what's the point of even going in?

    You can stay home and read up on your sales skills for half price! LOL! Shameless self promotion ;P

    well if you are sick you should stay home because you will get other people sick, especially the other dancers, when they dance for the customers that u have gotten sick. that is not very nice!

    Depends on how sick you are I guess. If you have no energy and you're sneezing/coughing then it's best to stay home. However, when I lose my voice due to sickness I always go in because for some reason guys LOVE my raspy sick voice. I always bank on those days haha

    in the last few years, i've been sick a bunch. pretty much every time was because of a girl working sick. it really pisses me off. it sucks to take time off when sick, only to have to take more time off because another girl didn't. all those sick days can add up to a lot of money.

    it's a really good reason to keep in mind when you don't feel like working. you never know when some girl is gonna come in with the flu and you'll be stuck having to decide whether to stay home or work when you've got bills due.

    i rarely work sick, but i could do it easy because i never look sick. i could feel numb and be running a fever and you'd never know from looking at me. it's just so hard to feel sexy when i've got burning gunk in my throat, and i get so paranoid about my breath.

    I'm sick. I hate it when bitches go into work coughing up one lung because they need the money to fund whatever habit!!! Stay your asses home!!!! It is disrespectful to other dancers, not to mention it slows your recovery time!!!!

    Agreed!

    Same with anyone - I was once out for dinner and the waitress told me she had a wicked stomach flu. I was pissed!

    If an ignorant dancer gets me sick, my son will usually get it, then my nephew - means I am out for a ton of shifts. That irritates me. Do everyone a favor and just stay home and rest ~ people will love you for it.

    There's a new girl in my club that has been sick since day 1. She is coughing like crazy and complaining how bad she feels and taking meds.. Yesterday I was eating next to her when she just wouldn't stop coughing. Even the hostess mentioned her that she should have some rest, but she was like "No-no, I need to work". Ahhh, it really pisses me off that management doesn't do anything. Customers aren't paying for sick girls! It looks so damn bad.

    This bitch at work was practically coughing up her lungs. I asked her to please stay on the other side of the room, as she could infect me and others. I may have been a bit harsh, because I snarled at her "Why the fuck are you at work if you're so sick?" Still, she fucking deserved it. If you're inconsiderate enough to come to work and infect me plus dozens of other people you deserve to get ripped a new asshole.

    Now I can't say with 100% certainty that swine flu bitch infected me but the odds are definitely in my favor.

    there's a reason why people with normal jobs have "sick days" you won't be productive if you're sick. if I'm even slightly sick and I go into work I just spend the entire night wishing I hadn't.

    kills 2 birds with one stone. first, they make money that night. then they make more money when the other girls are all home fighting off the illness they caught from the bitch who was coughing up a lung in the dressing room.

    i'm out sick now myself. yay.
