    Default My report on my first time dancing

    Hello everyone! This is how most of my day went:
    I went to the club around 2:30 pm and asked for the manager. I walked over to him and told him I wanted to audition, so he took me over to the front desk and talked to me for a while. I think he was just trying to feel me out and I was polite and very honest. So I did tell him I was quite nervous about getting completely naked but that I think I could adapt alright and do well, because I really wanted to have this job. So after him telling me some basics he had me fill out a form with my name, stage name, address, and emergency contact, and then he made a copy of my driver's license. He led me to the dressing room, told me to get dressed and come find him. After I'd gotten dressed he explained the LD booths, the champagne room, and the VIP room. He explained how much the house charges and about how much I should charge. He also said that there is no type of sexual activity allowed, but that if I did do something like that, he didn't want to hear about it, I told him that that was not what I was there for so he didn't have to worry about that at least when it came to me. To which he responded, "a lot of girls walk in here saying that and I end up walking by here and ...(motions dick sucking)." So after that he introduced me to the DJ, I told the DJ what songs I wanted, and what music I liked. I was on stage 4 or 5 times, and picked my own songs only twice. I really liked him because he seemed to feel me out (so to speak) to what I was best at on stage, which turned out to be rock, so he really helped me out (so I tipped him a bit aside from the regular fee).
    I left at 8 PM and came home with 80 dollars, which I know is really bad, especially considering 35 of that is from a single lap dance. Even if it was slow, I know there were other girls making more than me so I can get there, too. I paid 5 to the manager, 10 to the DJ, tipped him an extra 4 dollars, and tipped the two waitresses 4 dollars each. So I actually made 103 dollars dancing, but came home with 80 after tipping and paying fees.
    I also came home feeling very confident. Nothing like boot camp, or a strip club to realize your body is not that bad. I think I will do well. I know that I spent too much time talking to customers who weren't tipping, but it benefited me a lot because I would get comfortable with them and use them while on the stage to calm my nerves.
    Things I did not like, apparently a lot of the girls do extras, which I'm not going to do. They basically give out lap dances on the floor. I won't even sit in a dude's lap unless hes paying for it. I dont think I will ever be in the VIP room again because I'm pretty sure anyone who goes back there is going to have sex, and I have no intentions of getting down like that.
    The worst thing, it was really slow (this isn't the bad thing, I'm getting there). There was a point where there were 2 guys for like a whole hour in the club. That should give you an idea of how not busy it was.... but these girls still did some crazy shit on the stage, a girl was doing her set and another one came up to the stage and was kissing her, next time I glanced over she was eating her out, on the damn stage. SMH. Then, Im not 100% sure, but I think another dancer was letting these three guys finger her, I couldn't see because they were all crowded around her and their hands were all over it and stuff. I wonder what the hell they do on a busy night shift???
    Ultimately, I came home still motivated, and have decided to give this place 3 to 4 weeks before I make a decision to leave. The two bad things I saw are enough for me to want to leave, because I know that customers must come in expecting sex, and I won't be making that available. I even had a guy ask me, "If I pay for that backroom over there we can have sex, right?" I told him no, that this wasn't that type of club... but who knows, maybe it is.

    I would hightail it out of that club and move on to a cleaner place. Not only do you run the risk of angry customers (and with a management that doesn't seem to care, that can get dangerous) but having extras, especially so out in the open like that, is just begging for a club bust. Move on before you get caught up in something like that, you can do better!

    I've been in clubs where there was literally only 1-3 customers all night. If this place is like that & there are more than 2 girls, don't expect to be making money. Even two girls is a lot for 1-3 customers!

    As for the manager, if he's telling you that if you do something in the CR he "doesn't want to hear about it", that's pretty much code for the fact that he knows stuff goes on. Its not good to work for people who want to claim ignorance & yet profit from extras... it's best you move on.

    As far as the entertainers eating each other out on stage, there's another word for that but it's not "stripper" or "dancer". Unless you are working where prostitution is legal, this is just begging for a bust... & clean dancers can get picked up in busts. Again, it would be better if you didn't put your neck out on the line, so keep looking for a better club!
    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.

    Thanks for everyone's responses. Today was a bit better money-making wise. I worked day shift and came home with over 400 dollars. I was surprisingly the top earner today (for day shift anywho).
    Along with that came a girl who was pissing me off. I was on the stage, dancing my way over to a man wanting to tip me a 20 and this bitch sees the 20 and comes over and starts shaking her shit in his face. It pissed me the fuck off. I still got the 20 and I don't think he tipped her, but if I am brand-fucking new to dancing and know to not do that shit, she should know better as well. Later I tried to get by her because she had one arm on the bar and another on the DJ booth, I said excuse me and she would not move, totally just looked at me and wouldn't move... so I asked again, "could I get by please?" She looked at me for a couple more seconds then said, "yes you can," and moved out the way. I dont know what her deal is but I'm sensing the cattiness already and I don't like it...
    Anyways, I think if I can make 400 dollars on day shift on a Sunday without compromising my morals I think I will be okay. Its about finding the right guys who are on the same level from what I've grasped so far. Anyways, I'm dead tired and have school tomorrow, good night!

    Just want to say, thank you to Stripper Web and everyone who comes on here with good intentions of helping people like me out. A lot of what I was told here has benefited me immensely. I wish you all nothing but the very best, be blessed!

    Okay, I know I said I was okay with it all yesterday, but after reading some more on the site I've decided I won't be staying at this club. Its a dirrty place. As soon as I can audition somewhere else I'm leaving.
    More than twice I've gone in the dressing room and there is a girl in there calling a drug dealer to come drop shit off, if not that they are talking about their baby daddies or about another dancer. Last night, one of the girls got CR for an hour 200 for the club and who knows how much for her. For some reason they decided to go into the lounge next door. Manager and I were about to share a sub, I walked in, saw him sitting, her on her knees, turned around, left the lounge. Saw the manager eating already at the bar, and I says, "So I guess we're eating here." He giggled and said, "yeah I guess we are." I asked him if he went into the lounge he just said, "yep."

    what happened is that you became top earner on your second day which put her in a lesser earner's position. Her problem obviously that she's jealous

    if you look up "Office Skank Costume" on amazon you'll find what I wore to my audition.
    I suggest you dance to stuff you like and are familiar with, that way you can move to it more comfortably. I personally like old school stuff like Keith Sweat and Ginuwine, or Usher, and for my last song I like some rock, Def Leppard, Guns N' Roses, CheVelle, Deftones, Buckcherry, even some poppy Nickelback.
    Find your own style and work it! Thats what I'm figuring out and its a fun process

    That girl is trying to bully you out of the club since you have obviously been doing better. Hold your ground.

    Hello gals, just giving you all an update.
    This weekend was basically same as last weekend. Saturday and Sunday noon to 8PM (I stayed until 10 last night, though). Saturday I came home with only 75 dollars (Came home with 80 last Saturday), and was feeling kinda stressed. I got a good night's sleep and had a nice breakfast with my parents on Sunday morning and put my heels back on and I came home with 580 (I made 420 last Sunday). Seems to me like Sunday is a good day for my club. I added up my money and I broke 1000 yesterday so I'm kinda happy about that.
    I'm still concerned about the extras going on in my club, I've been offered VIP and Champagne but I just tell custies I don't do more than lap dances. Last night a girl came up to me and not really asked but told me a guy wanted to do a threesome and that we only had to fake it so whenever she got done with her set we were doing a champagne room. I said I'd talk to the guy then did a couple LDs and went home without saying anything to her. Hopefully she's not pissed. I went to another club Saturday night after my shift, I called to see when I could audition and it happened to be right after I got off work, so I went over and checked out the place. Its in a nicer area of Miami, about 20 more minutes of a drive but hopefully worth it. It appears smaller but is actually about the same size of the club I'm at now. The stage is quite small but visible from every area of the club. It is also more upscale looking, clean, not dark and dingy
    The locker room looks so much better and they actually have a clean, working shower (the club I'm at has a shower but there is a mop in it, no shower curtain :/).
    I let the manager know during my interview I basically didn't want to go from one brothel to another and he ended up telling me if he catches one of his girls doing extras he would fire them. So I liked that, I'm working there next weekend 9PM til closing, and I'll do Sunday day shift at my current club since it appears that day shift is a good day for me.
    Well, for some reason I am restless and cannot sleep. So I'm going to work on some homework.
    Good luck to everyone this week. I'll update in a week and again let you all know how I'm doing.

    Oh side note for some of the girls who are new like me and audition for the first time. The audition I went to on Saturday night after work, it wasn't really even an audition. He asked me flat out, stretch marks? Scars? Tats? I showed him my only tattoo, he said it was gorgeous and asked me to stay and work that night. So, I didn't even change out of my civies or anything
    So auditions can be reallllllll easy I guess, but do keep in mind I still had my makeup/hair all done up because I'd just gotten off work.

    Good job making that money girl! But seriously, you are losing out on SO much money not doing rooms. Just cause other girls are doing stuff in them doesn't mean you have to. So go, do a room, dance, entertain, flirt, laugh, drink, cuddle, get/give massages, whatever and most importantly, GET YOUR MONEY. Who gives a flying fuck what the other girls are doing? I'm glad you auditioned at hopefully a better club but if you're in Miami, it's to be expected. Miami is notorious for extras and they go on in nearly every club there. It's very high mileage but again, doesn't mean you have to do them. If you don't mind me asking which clubs are you working in? Maybe I can point you in a better direction.

    UPDATE!
    Last weekend was okay. I worked Saturday night shift at a classier club in a nicer part of Miami. If there is one thing I can say about it, it was intimidating. There were definitely many more beautiful IN SHAPE women there. Hardly any overweight girls. The club I started at I would say two thirds of the girls there are overweight or have very noticeable stretch marks/scars/sagging. It was intimidating because there were so many GORGEOUS girls and many of them were amazing on the pole and their floor work was just as good. Another thing that was different about this club is the staff was no where near as friendly as the other place. The club I started at has less dancers, and they're kinda crazy/hood, but the staff is wonderful, the manager/bartenders/waitresses are great. At this new club they are ALL ABOUT THE DAMN MONEY. The DJ plays whatever he wants and seemed even annoyed at the fact that I tried to introduce myself. Also, I had no problems with the other girls, they were friendly if I asked any questions (the girls at my first club are not that friendly). I had a guy try to get a champagne room but we couldn't come to an agreement, he wanted sex, I said no, then he wanted to just talk and get dances I said yes but he wanted to pay only 100 dollars so I again said no and walked away because he was wasting my time. I came home with about 220 dollars.
    Sunday I worked day shift at my first club (the ghetto one). I didn't do as well as I have, but I forgot it was father's day. So, I learned something new, you have to remember some dates such as these and consider weather going in and working is worth it or not. It was pretty dead, I worked 6 hours and came home with about 200 dollars. It was a bummer to work two shifts and come home with what I'd like to make in a single shift.
    Something else I've come to realize, you can NEVER be sure how much you will make. After my first two weeks I figured I could make X amount per month working the shifts I was working. Not true, there is so much more involved then your skills at the job. Things like holidays, the 1st of the month sounds good but you have to keep in mind people pay most of their bills on the 1st as well. So the weekend after the 15th (when most people get paid again but don't have as many or any bills) is probably the best (unless of course some stupid holiday like father's day (WTF ever) comes up).
    So, after this weekend I have decided the following is extremely important in order for me to be successful at a nicer, upscale club, and it fits perfectly into my little 'saying' I had since a while ago. Triple F!
    1) Fit - If I am not working out and get pudgy, I'm already giving about 30 girls an advantage to make more money than me. This is a competition and looking good helps immensely!
    2) Fierce - This is all about dealing with the guys. Being timid and uptight does not work for anyone (not for me, or other girls from what I have seen). Loosen up, KNOW you are sexy and that people are paying to be in your presence. Embrace a sexy attitude and work it. Remember that no matter what you think your flaws are, you are absolutely, for sure, somebody's dream girl. For me, being fierce means making yourself the person who is in control of a conversation/dance or whatever the situation may be, be nice but be assertive.
    3) Fabulous - Have fun, if I hate work I'm just not going to go. I think the worst thing to spot in a club is a stripper sitting by herself looking pissed to hell to the point where you want to walk 10 feet around her because you're afraid she'll claw your throat out if come any closer. WTF, seriously, go home. So, smile, when talking with custies, on stage, dancing. Always smile. What helps me enjoy myself is to look at my job in a certain perspective: Why go out and pay a cover to go into a club, pay for drinks, meet people and dance (I love dancing!) when can come here, do the same and get PAID for it. Either way, you win. So smile, you're fabulous.

    My plan: I'm going to take a pole dancing class once a week. I'm going to just pay for one hour of instruction on learning pole tricks. I think I might even offer to pay one of the nice girls I met at my new club to teach me. She was happy to show me some for free, anyway.
    I've set a solid work out routine now that I have a new class schedule, I have an hour and a half three days a week that I will use to work out so that I'm Triple F
    I'm trying the night shift at my ghetto club on Saturday to compare and contrast with Saturday's night shift at the classier place.

    Oh, one last thing. Extras happen everywhere in Miami.

    I hope this has been helpful to other newbies. For the veterans, if you have any criticisms/advice its greatly appreciated so long as you're not a cunt about it. K thanks bye!

    I think this will be my last update. I hope it continues to be helpful to new girls. If there are any more questions, ask here or message me. So....
    I worked Saturday night at my usual club and Sunday day shift as well. I made about 500 between both shifts which isn't great :/
    I made about the same amount during Saturday's night shift as I did the week before same shift at a different (more upscale) club. Now that I worked Sat night shift at both places I am wanting to stay at my first club. The biggest reason is simply that the staff is way better. The managers are great and while the dancers are a bit more hood it doesn't matter as long as you don't get involved in the shit talking and don't act like a jackass. Pretty basic so its fine.
    I had an issue on Sunday though with the night shift DJ. The day shift one, no complaints, ever. He is great. The way it works at my club is day shift can go home at 8, but can stay until 10 without paying any fees (including DJ). But, I like to give him a couple dollars anyway. I went up to the manager to let him know I was leaving (it was 10, on the dot), and I was courteous enough to let the DJ know as well so he can take me off the stage rotation. He tells me I can't go home. I thought he was joking and he picks up the 5 dollars I tipped him (you only tip the DJ 10 for a whole f'n shift so 5 dollars for two hours and being on stage just a couple times is fucking great if you ask me), and he goes on saying, you're gonna have to bring me a lot, I mean A LOT more money before you can go home. I was like are you kidding me? I tell him the manager already told me I can go home. So then he says that there is some kind of paper he has to sign before I can go home and he won't sign it, because I have to stay until MIDNIGHT, maybe THREE. I was like, sorry I'm not going to be able to do that I have school in the morning, I was actually off at 8, I'm not night shift. So I got tired of going back and forth with him and his BULLSHIT so I went to the manager and asked him if the DJ really had to sign some shit before I left and asked why he was asking me for money. He told me he was just messing with me but he really was trying to take money from me and make me stay. I really didn't like that so I'll be talking to my manager (the one who hired me, he really is a a sweetheart) about it and see what he says or does to this asshole.

    Lastly, I have three weeks off from school in August. I decided I'm going to apply for a working Visa and go back to Japan. I'm going to do a week at my old hostess bar and about a week to 10 days if possible in Tokyo. I'm saving money for this and actually invited an old Air Force friend to see if he wants to come along since the love of his life lives in Japan. This week I'll be getting in touch with some clubs just to be sure I'll have work while there.

    Good luck and thanks again to everyone who has been so helpful to me and other newbies.
