    I have this same problem... both school and stripping are mentally and emotionally draining in different ways, so even when I have time for both I don't feel like I have the energy for both. I can't "get my head in the game" at work when I'm worried about a paper due, and vice versa. I wish stripping was as mindless and unchallenging as people seem to think it is, then this wouldn't be a problem!

    Something that has worked for me before is to bring an e-reader of some sort to work, and when it's slow just to do my course reading, or draft papers in between making the rounds for lapdances. Sometimes if you go up and talk to a dude and he says "maybe later" you can tell him, okay i'll just be over her doing my homework, feel free to come get me when you're ready. That line has worked for me before!

    ^ are you an Anthropology major? Just asking cause if the user name, and that's what I'm studying!

    For me, my clubs have no schedule. I only work 3 days a week, and if I have too much schoolwork I take the night off. I also take fewer classes during the busy season.

    Do you have class everyday? Working day shifts would solve the lack of sleep problem, and if you consistently work the same day(s) every week, you could build up some regulars. Or just working weekends, like Friday nights and Saturdays.

    I realize I'm not the most helpful since this is a future plan, and not something I've actually managed, but my plan for next year is to dance Friday and Saturday nights. I can be out late without having to worry about recovering, and bring in hundreds per week, which is like a mothafuckin gold rush for a student lol.

    When I was taking classes full-time, I would dance Friday, Saturday, and Monday nights. Sunday or Monday night was mandatory for weekend girls, so I chose Monday because my class the following day was less-intense than my Monday morning class. It kind of sucked not having time for a social life on the weekends, but I did have plenty of time to get schoolwork finished and be pretty well rested.

    I say figure out which out which weekday you could spare to be tired on, and work the night before...and also work Friday and Saturdays.

    Yes! I am into Cultural Anthropology. Pretty much every time I have a paper to write where I can choose the topic, I do something about stripping or pole dancing. Right now I'm writing a paper about StripperWeb, haha!

    Do you have a focus in Anthro?

    I let myself take as much time off as I need to during the schoolyear, always I take november and march completely off--the busiest month of each semester for me, and then if I get myself into work once a week I'm happy though even that's not always possible with my program's workload. I try to work 2-3 times a week during breaks. I have learned to budget for this time off over my 4 years of school and to just suck it up and get student loans...I don't know if you qualify but they certainly make things easier. I choose that over taking extra time to finish my degree and working more while in school because I hate school and can't wait to be done with it. Maybe try to go in on saturdays or sundays? Just one though, so you have one day off where you don't need to do anything. The other you can take your time getting ready before work that night. If your program is really crazy don't even start trying to go in every weekend, aim for 2 days/month, or maybe 3, it's better than nothing and will get you some cash, but don't stress yourself too much!

    I know the useless feeling, can really relate to that bit. BUT you aren't being useless, studying is useful, you are bettering yourself and preparing for your future, it's definitely a good thing

    If your current club sucks before 9pm and on weekends, perhaps try out a different one? I work in a club that has a lunch buffet and is surrounded by office buildings, so quite a bit of money comes into the club 12pm-2pm and 4pm-7pm because of all the workers coming in for lunch and after work. Could be worth looking into a club like that.

    Also, is your club open during the day on weekends? I hate hate hate the weekend night crowd and amount of girls as well, but I tend to bank on Saturday day shifts. There's barely any girls, and while there aren't many customers, the ones that come in generally tend to spend. It's a more mellow crowd as well, and that's right up my alley.

    Taking 6 classes at a time imho doesnt allow alot of time for dancing several nights a week..Its just too much..I realize theres lots of girls who can go on 3 hrs of sleep a night and juggle all of that but it isnt worth it to me...Before I got my first degree I would only take two classes at a time bc that was all I could handle while dancing..School was important but dancing provided my money for survival and survival was always #1.

    I don't have much flexibility because normally my class is 40 hours/week..mon-fri so I have to work fri/sat or skip a morning of classes if i wanna work a weeknight. I don't have an option not to work. I used to hate weekends but after 3 years I'm used to them and actually prefer them.

    I feel you on that! Is it possible to work just once a week or even once a fortnight? Thursday nights aren't usually too bad of a weekend crowd, and you would have time to sleep in on Fridays to feel rested.

    When I was in college and dancing, I only danced a couple of nights a week during the semester. Usually Thursday and Friday nights, sometimes Saturday night. During Christmas break and summers, I would dance full time and sometimes I'd even travel if I had a good booking.

    ^You'll be fine! When I first started, I worked at one club once a month or so, and management always remembered me. I was gone from my home club (which I really only worked at 1-3 times a week) for a good year and was welcomed back with hugs by management and other staff that was still around, so I'm sure you'll be fine after 3 months. Not sure how your club works, but if you're on file, you can always ask them to check if they try and put you through the newbie process.

    My current school schedule is all Tuesday and Thursday classes. So I work Friday, Saturday, Sunday. No real social live but I have my goal and will enjoy life later with less worries.
