I'm going in for my first night shift this Thursday (starting at 3 and although I can leave by 8, I'm hoping to stay til at least 10 or so, depending on how things go). I've been dancing for a few months now but have only stuck with day shifts or early weekend shifts just because they tend to work better with my class/other work schedule and I've been pretty satisfied with how much money I make on them. Plus, I like when there aren't many girls on the floor, and nights will likely be more packed. For some reason, I'm also just a little intimidated by the late shift, not entirely sure why. But once summer hits I'll only really be able to work late shifts, so I want to get used to them, and it's about time I tried something new, especially if it could result in more monies.
So, any tips? Any aspects that will be super different that I should be prepared for? I know it varies by club and area, but even general advice would be much appreciated. I'm expecting less super loyal regulars (weekday day shifts don't seem to be too lucrative at this club without them, and it's not possible for me to work regularly enough to cultivate them) which is nice, more drunks (I've only ever dealt with one, and I wasn't too fond of him) which isn't so nice, and more of a younger crowd (which I find tends to like me, so that could be good) but otherwise, is there much of a difference?
