    Sad I refuse to do "extras" so other dancers keep stealing customers :(

    Hi everyone So I work for a "strip club" on a Greek island what you could call a party island as in it is empty apart from a few strips with clubs/bars ect, I'm currently in university and I've basically decided to use my 6 month holiday to strip abroad as a little adventure while I'm still young and carefree.

    I'm not new to stripping but back home they have plenty of rules to protect dancers and everyone else in the club however it seems to be a bit of a free for all where I am.
    Other dancers regularly offer "extras" ie handjobs and even further which I simply refuse to do.

    If I could just refuse that would be fine however all the drunk customers that come in generally focus on getting the other girls and not me, I simply get brushed off. Something extremely bad happened the other day when I had a group of 5 lads tell me to my face they didn't want me and would rather wait for someone else all because I dont like the touching and wont provide any other services.

    I'm starting the think the whole "strip club" is just a front and its basically an over glorified brothel, I've only been working here a couple of weeks and I think I'm going to quit and just get a job in one of the bars along the strip

    Edit: Just realised I haven't actually asked anything, it looks like a diary entry lol.

    Uhhhhh....have you not read about the current economic conditions in greece? I suggest you google, and google fast, then proceed to gtfo asap. The greek economy has been heading downhill for a while now, but that downward momentum is increasing at a rapid rate with most greeks that can moving their money out of the country to safer places. Greece is bringing down the value of the euro and the only reason there hasn't been a complete economic collapse is because other countries in the EU have been bailing out Greek banks, but that can't go on for much longer. It's even unsure how much longer Greece will still be using the euro, they could be switching back to the drachma soon...which will have a value of next to nothing meaning if you are there working while the transition occurs your "working holiday" will quickly turn into a "slaving holiday" no matter where you are working as the currency will be worth soooo much less outside of greece. I suggest you cut your losses and go dance somewhere where there are better economic conditions at least--germany, uk, france, etc. Even if dancing is still shitty there and you need to take another kind of job, at least you can be certain that your earnings will keep their value!

    I know I realise I could have picked a better country, I'll see about going to Spain to escape. Its all cash in hand where I am and British pounds get accepted also, due to 90% of partiers there being from the UK.

    I'm not sure if its because of the Greek economy that dancers are doing anything they can to get more money, I wouldn't give out handjobs like confetti but I might if I had to so I could afford to eat.

    You should also do some research on what clubs are safe/non extras and good to work out, and weed those out that are shitty to the core.
    I'm sorry you had to go through that, but it comes with the job. Fuckers these days don't know that strip clubs don't = brothel. That goes for the skanks bringing down the reputation too.

    It's not like it's very hard to earn without the need to go that dirty mile, but I guess people are just desperate.

    I know what you mean, I think its because where I am has a sort of 'bubble' around it and people just come here to do what they want. I've only worked in one other club though so I'm not experienced at all.

    There are definitely better places to strip abroad and have an adventure over summer, friends of mine have danced in Magaluf and Ibiza and loved it so perhaps its time to cut your losses in Greece and try somewhere else asap.

    Would these places not all be the same? I'm in Zante atm and I just picture them all being pretty similar, been to Malia before and tbh you couldn't tell the difference between them.

    Honestly I don't know because I haven't experienced these places for myself but I think it helps that they're not in Greece, plus the girls I know wouldn't be happy unless they were making good money in a relatively clean place. Also you make money from selling drinks there so its not just dancing.

    A lot of clubs in Europe are just thinly veiled brothels. Your best bets for more comfortable working conditions are the UK, France, parts of Spain, Germany, and maybe some of the Scandinavian clubs. Southern and eastern Europe don't really do strip clubs the same way as the West/North America.

    Yeah most clubs in greece are pretty dirty..i worked there in 2008.I didnt mind too much cos they gave quite high salary 70 euros was normal.I dont know what its like now.If you want to get some sun but work in a clean club you are better off trying magaluf(heaven or pure),Tenerife(stringfellas) and ibiza(taboo) like the other girl said.these clubs are like UK with no touching and no extras.Or you could try malta although my friend went there recently and said the money was shit.
