    Default Too many job offers..opinions please

    I didn't want to post this in Life Support because it is not really an emergency situation, I just want some opinions and I am a bit conflicted. Long story short, I have decided to move forward with my life and do my very best to find a good paying "normal" job....One where I am paid an hourly wage plus tips/commish, have a schedule, etc.

    I have been looking into becoming a doorgirl/hostess at stripclubs, also looking into retail jobs with commission/tips. I had no luck at first and now TWO good opportunities have come my way. I am not complaining, I am overjoyed that I am blessed to have so many opportunities rather then one, but I am a LIBRA and have difficulty making any decision, especially important ones.

    JOB 1: STRIPCLUB DOORGIRL/HOSTESS: 5 HOURS A DAY, HOURLY WAGE PLUS TIPS. LATE SCHEDULE (not a morning person) Very flexible. Not much room for advancement, unless I want to do cocktails/bartending. Flexible schedule, casual environment (good for me becasue I need something flexible as I make this transition.)

    I applied at JOB 1 the last week, and got an INTERVIEW TODAY. Things went well, and they said they would call me back tomorrow morning. Waiting in anticipation until then....

    JOB 2: CASINO: FULL TIME HOURLY WAGE PLUS TIPS, AND HEALTH BENEFITS AFTER 90 DAYS. Retail environment, part of a chain, will have to follow strict company procedures and ass-kiss. Tipping potential is HUGE (more opportunity for better tips then in SC). Not as flexible, but better clientele and a far more professional working environment.

    I sent in my resume to JOB 2, got a call today after interview with JOB 1 and set up an interview with JOB 2 tomorrow!!!

    Funniest shit: Both of the ladies that called me (From stripclub and casino job) were BOTH NAMED DANIELLE!

    I don't know what to do if I land both jobs. I am trying to weigh my options. I dont want to say no to either job, I think both will be great opportunities for me, however I think JOB 2 is the better opportunity, but if I do not like strict job 2 I do not want to blow off JOB 1...see what I am getting at? I also think that learning two new jobs at once will be a lot to learn at once lol.

    I think I am going to start P/T at both places and weigh my options here, I mean it looks like a no brainer, but BOTH can be good and well paying opportunities. JOB 2 is also a bit more strict.

    I have been out of this game for so long, I do not know what to do but I don't want to let either job know about the other lol. Opinions please lol.

    Well, I would worry if you are offered either job. Remember in this economy you may not get either. Both have advantages but if you take job 1 you may go back into stripping. That happened to me when I took a waitress job. Also, really look at both jobs and decide what's better for you. Back in 2005 I was offered two jobs, a pr job and a computer trainer job. I really wanted the pr job but the trainer job paid more and I went with it. I hated it and I later found out the perosn who got the pr job was promoted twice.

    I would prefer the second job, just because it sounds like a better earning potential and the health insurance benefits will save you a lot of money.

    Easily the Casino. There is the opportunity for advancement, casinos are hospitality work, and can branch out to hotels and resorts. A legitimate job to put on a resume, and a solid employment.

    What is the position at the Casino?

    Is it a tribal casino (located on the Indian Reservation)?

    THX ladies
    I am also nervous even if I work in SC for a DAY it is making ANOTHER paper trail to the adult related industry (as if it isnt long enough)...not needed.

    I eventually want to move to another resort town in a tropical paradise, would like to stay in tourism industry, etc, Casino would be better for this.

    JOB 2: Cigar Hostess. I don't want to give too many details but the position is not working DIRECTLY for casino, however it is a foot in the door. I'd like to get into the cage, or cocktails in casino in future but this will put me in the casino and working.... I would walk the casino floor, "Cigaretts/Cigars" but it is not one of those tacky cigar operations with the god awful outfit that sells the blinky souveniers. This is for an upscale retail cigar shop, with "alot of casino VIP interaction lol"

    I just don't want to say no to the SC, then not get JOB 2. Le sigh of happiness lol.

    Work for the Casino. There is so much room for growth there. I am not sure if it is a tribal casino, but I have friends that work for a tribal casino here. Their benefits are out of this world...health, dental, paid sick/vacation. Think about becoming a blackjack/poker dealer. They (especially the blackjack dealers) make 100k+ a year.

    A first interview =/= a job offer, so don't start playing favourites until you actually have job offers for both positions. Worry about crossing the job picking bridge if and when it comes up, and for now worry instead about giving good interviews for both positions so you actually get an offer.

    The Casino position sounds like a better deal. As someone else said, the potential for advancement is greater. Good luck!

    Casino, but as Shanna said, just because you have interviews doesn't mean you have a job offer. Take whichever offers you a position first, to ensure you a job period. Then if the one you really want calls after you've already accepted the first job, you have a safety net.

    Oh shit! It happened! I got both job offers after interviews.

    Cigar hostess is out....it just isn't my type of thing...they make you PAY for a tray then reimburse you in your check. I looked up the company and saw some horrid reviews left by people who have worked with the company claiming they often have "re-payment issues" I also read an article online that the company has been investigated for hiring illegal immigrants. The interview went well, and it could very well have been a good opportunity. I have a few days to call them and come fill out paperwork so I haven't said no just yet but....

    I got a better job offer at the stripclub. I wanted to do cashiering, because it would get me back into the club enviornment. I have been camming for a majority of my industry career, so I just wanted to get my feet wet as a cashier, see if I could handle it. I would, from there want to get into cocktail serving and VIP cocktail serving, but had no experience.

    Well they offered me a cocktail serving job (even with no experience) and said if I was not comfortable, I am more then welcome to become a cashier. I have the opportunity to gain cocktail serving experience now, so I am goin to take it. If I am not happy, I can become a cashier, If I don't like working in a stripclub, after all..... I can move on to another club, or other nightlife/casino positions from here. A casino cocktail server can make very good money here...if I am serving, that is my ultimate goal, either that or an upscale CLUB CLUB, doing VIP cocktails.

    I know you guys are going to spank me but there is a better opportunity in the stripclub for me atm, and will give me the experience I need to get even better opportunities here. While I am still living here I should make the most of it.

    And sure, I will see girls making more money..to me it is not worth it to go beyond my boundaries. It will be tempting, we are all human but at this stage in my life, I have absolutely NO desire to dance...you KNOW when you get to that point. If I get too many offers n can't deal, I can move on as well....wish me luck girls.... Maybe I will even be working with some of you soon
