Thanks everyone, I should've mentioned I have switched clubs after my two months off I'm now dancing through an agency that sends me around different clubs and pays me for stages so it's nice not having as much pressure to sell dances.
Last night I just decided to not worry about making money from dances at all and the first guys I spoke to were really nice and I ended up chatting and drinking with them for over an hour - which I know is terrible hustle but I did it to have a fun night not a profitable one. In the end those guys got $200 worth of dances, I did a couple of dances for another guy and made decent stage tips so went home with 3x what I did he night before, meaning I had an average night but still better than a crap one and left in a good mood which to me means it was a good night.
@shift_6x thank you for your advice but yeah, I've never been in one club more than about 8 months, I travel around different cities and countries a lot, I do agree with the bit about realising the industry doesn't give a shit about you!
The club I'm working in next week is said to have really good managers and a lot of nice regulars that tip every stage, then after that I'm flying to a different province and working in another club I worked at earlier in the year where I get along with the managers and staff really well and [hopefully] still have a couple regulars there. Plus when I'm there it's close enough to my bf that he can drive down and see me on his days off
Things are slowly starting to look up finally!
