    Default I have a question! Please read!

    Okay so i just started dancing at a club almost a month ago. I was telling my friend about it & she wants to go. My boyfriend said no way. She'll be taking money out of my pocket... blah blah. But i think it will work like a team thing. We look similar & i think we could make a lot as a team.

    What do you girls think???

    There's certainly a possibility of her getting some money that you might have otherwise gotten from customers, especially if you guys have similar hair, boobs, body type, etc. However, I love working with my best friend. We definitely don't do much as a "team," but it's nice having her around. In fact, I do make less money the days that she works with me but that's because we spend most of our shift drinking and hanging out with each other instead of working lol.

    Uhm. Really?

    You boast to your friend about your club.... what were you expecting to happen?



    My only gripe is that your boyfriend said "no way" what ever that means. Is he the hiring manager? Is he in charge of you somehow? That's just odd.

    Honestly though... now that the cat is out of the bag, you can't prevent her from working there if she wants to.


    So yeah, double up and do tag teams or something. An extra dancer will almost always spread money thinner. But it's better to ride that wave with her... Good luck.

    Since you are relatively new it might be nice to have someone to dance with who can be sort of like a support system. If you continue to work with her and spend friend time with her outside of the club you might see too much of each other and become more competitive at work. KaiaRose (a cool member and moderator here) has mentioned that she dances with her BFF but that her friend is also her biggest competition.

    My best friend started dancing after I did, and it worked well but that was because in the club, we completely went our separate ways and then we'd meet again at the end to drive home together. Also, I was shocked by how much she wanted me to to hand-hold her at the start, legit she followed me around like a puppy and then when I nicely explained to her that I had to go make money (after approaching several custies and pretty much setting her up for dances) she went off and cried coz she didn't think dancing would be so hard and the other girls were "too good". Eventually it worked out, but it took a while for her to find her own footing without clinging to me.

    My BFF and I used to work together and we made a shitload because at the time we looked similar. (short, long dark hair big fake tits) We were never in competition with each other because she dance to hip hop and I danced to metal.

    That being said watch All About Eve with Bette Davis. It will give you some insight on bringing "friends" into the industry. You just might create a monster you can't control. Remember at the end of the day we all want the same thing: $$$$

    If you're new it may help to have a friend. Bitches can be mean to the new girl. As long as you have a friend it'd be harder to single you out.

    Be careful bringing good friends into the club, especially those with a similiar look. It's likely that you'll end up sharing customers, and sometimes things get nasty when there's money involved. I've seen plenty of friendships shattered after many years due to something that happened itc, and it's actually quite sad.

    I don't like the idea of working with someone. Like someone mentioned, it thins your money. Plus if he's a good customer, you want to make him YOUR regular for as long as he lasts.

    I would only call someone else if the customer asked for an additional girl, or if I had an aggressive "octopus" customer who has money up his ass(know for a fact he can afford to do multiple hours in VIP).

    Other than that, it's best to ride solo.

    Personally nowadays I even try to avoid making friends with girls already working in the club – because it makes me lose my focus...that said I know from past experiences that I feel very uncomfortable having a good friend working with me in the club. First of all bc I find it much harder to get into my stripper-mode when I have people that know me in real life around me. And second bc I find it very hard not to look out for my friend while working and that is not good for business.

    Some girls are the exact opposite though, they seem to only be able to make money when they are together, I guess it really depends on your personality.

    I became best friends with someone who started a month after me and we are still best friends even though we no longer work fulltime together (we travel instead maybe every month or two). When we do work together we do great with groups. We both have similiar shapes (both very short in height, wide hips with small waists, but she has bigger boobs) and we both love dancing together on stage because we are both into the same music and both picky about it. Customers ask if we are sisters all the time. Hell, I used to let her use my ID to get into bars before she was 21. We have different personalities though. I'm more girl next door and she's more rebel/punk. Yeah, there have been a few times maybe the group we were in liked her more than me or they liked me more than her... But those times are completely outnumbered by the amount of times customers were really into the two girl stuff. We've got our two girl routine down. Best of all? I have the perfect traveling companion. If the club is slow and there are no groups then we do our own thing. We've been working together for almost two years now so we're extremely close and we watch each other's back. And it is nice to see a friendly face at work.

    But, neither me or my friend are jealous types so if you are then I'm not sure how much you'll enjoy working with her but it would be very immature to give her the idea but tell her nevermind.

    We both worked Saturday, which I wrote about in the forum. It was horrible. We didn't make much because 85% of the cust. wanted extras. So it pretty much scarred her off from dancing. But I'm trying to convince her to audition at a new club with me. So hopefully we get hired & the doubles thing works for us!

    Just watch out. Your best friend can become your worst enemy. This industry can do crazy things to you.

    If the two of you look similar, guys will confuse the two of you all the time.

    You'll take some of her money and she'll take some of yours.

    She talks shit and the hammer comes down on you.

    You invite her in and she takes over.

    Not saying the last two scenarios are going to happen, but they're possible.

    My BFF wants to go with me to audition at some places. I won't take her to my one club in Philly. Why? Because I'm the only set of fake tits in there. I'd be shooting myself in the foot. May as well show the fox the entrance to the henhouse and hand him the keys.
