    wow crazy dream!, I agree its not about killing yourself, we must listen to our bodies and look after our selves, we need to be feeling good also to work to our full potential while in the club.

I ducked down to hide, but he threw something through the window, and I knew it'd kill me, but I woke up before anything really happened. My heart was racing so fast!
    So, I'll honor whatever my mind is trying to tell me unless I suddenly get a great feeling about tonight. Or if anyone interprets dreams, it'd be interesting to hear your thoughts! I'm feeling better about last night, too. Things happen, and not every night can be perfect (:
    It sounds like an anxiety dream. Your mind has been overloaded with anxiety lately, and it was probably trying to purge that through your dream. Working a shit night making very little money will do that. Do you feel like either customers or dancers could potentially cause violence in the club? This may be a subconscious fear you have. Stay safe! Also sending you good money vibes for your next shift!

    Well only got in 3 of the four shifts I was planning on:/ it wasn't my lack of motivation though. We have A LOT more girls working now that summer is almost over. Scheduling manager says because he ALWAYS gives me the shifts I request that I was due to not get everything I wanted *pouty face & foot stomp*

    My September is not going to start until Monday, the 8th. To make up for it, I plan on working 4 days a week for the reminder of the month.

    I am sooo disappointed in tonight I expected at least $800, but I walked with LESS than $300. You don’t always bank off football games, but come on, this is the first football game of the year! Argg! BUT I have a log so far of my september work challenge, and for the sake of a good attitude, I did make $2,387 this week. If I could make that for the rest of the month I will have made over $9,000.. which really is nothing to complain about!
    During my september journal that is filled with check in/out times, rent prices for the night, and tip out, I have realized that I spent a whopping 500 A WEEK on tip out and rent alone! Holy shit dude, that’s like $2,000 a month! It adds up, but rent and tip out are inevitable and in this industry and the rest of the world. And you know what they say;
    “You gotta spend money to make money”.

    Here’s my first weeks journal.

    I did 4 shifts last week. I'd like to keep it up, but I hate night shifts and unfortunately I have school Monday/Wednesday/Friday until 2:30. Can't really work swing shift at my club without tipping out 2 sets of staff... so otherwise I have to wait until 6 to go in and be there until after midnight.
    I could do a Sunday but my club is far enough that I don't want to spend the gas and risk it sucking.
    Blah.

    Great challenge. I'm in serious need of motivation. I looked at my paystubs for the last two weeks of August and I had worked a total of 4 hours( got in super late during that one shift). Seriously slacking . What messes me up is that I'll reach my goal and then I don't feel like coming in to make anything above my goal. Anyways, I worked last Friday and Saturday and it was great. I'm traveling for my birthday next month and will only be able to work a few shifts so to make up for that I'll aim to work 2-3 shifts per week. I'm in school full time as well so I'll have to be extra disciplined about getting enough rest on my off days. Good luck to everyone!

    Ok....I officially hate football after tonight!! my club had an open bar for 4 freakin' hours (for the games) so the club was packed with cheap, drunk assholes. It was so disheartening to walk around all night and barely make any money, while being grab-assed by everyone. Not working another monday 'til football season is over!

    On the bright side, tonight was my first night working sober in over a year so I'm proud of myself Someone give me a cookie lol

    Left with a little less than $100. I want to say it's just me that's doing something wrong so I can fix it, but every top earner (minus extras girls) is struggling at my club. Almost every night there have been more girls than customers, and the customers there all seem to be looking for sex (well, about half at least). Really hoping this changes soon, otherwise I might have to find a new place to dance! And get into travel dancing. There's already little money where I am, so this makes it tougher.

    Oh well. There's no way this rough streak can last forever (:

    I'm at 2755 so far this month. I worked Wed-Fri last week and Sun & Mon. So five days. I really should have just stayed home Monday because I left with 220 but I forced myself to go because I missed Saturday for personal reasons.. Oh well.
    Ready to go back in tonight (Wednesday) and push through at least Saturday and maybe even Sunday.
    Oh so Sunday night my club was busy apparently during the earlier shift and was dead when I came in but I ended up leaving with just a couple bucks shy of 700. Even though the patriots didn't win I made my money mostly off of patriot fans. Dolphin fans are cheap as fuck.

    I'll be working 7 days in a row this week. I'm moving at the end of this month, and the rent/deposits are due on 9/15 on the new place. This is $3,000 more than my usual monthly bills, so I have to put in extra hours to make it happen. (I live in a low money city, so $200 shifts are the norm around here).

    Then I'll take Monday off, and right back to work on Tues so that I can cover the rest of the bills this month. I love dancing for the ability to work as hard or as little as I want. I'll be taking a break at the end of the month to complete my move.

    I'm feeling better about working so much. My body is adjusting. Feeling pretty good about getting up in the morning instead of feeling like I've been hit by a mack truck.

    I usually work 5 days a week anyways, and I'm going out of town for a week... but as soon as I get back, I'm definitely going to be working 6 out of 7 for a while to catch back up.

    That's what's starting to happen for me. I woke up for the first time today actually bursting with energy where I always used to be tired after working a night. I might make working 4-5 days (with 6 day weeks thrown in) my norm after this month as I keep adapting to it... It'll feel nice to not be so tight on money!

    Tonight has made the september work challenge worth every drug out minute. I had a phenomenal night tonight. I left there with a little over $1,600. This means, that all of my bills are currently paid, and it’s only the 9th! Usually it takes me all month to get to this point… Working 3x as much as I normally do really does have it benefits. The rest of this months earnings go straight into my savings account.. I FEEL AMAZING and so proud of myself and am looking forward to seeing my earnings at the end of the month.
    I have been spending so much time in the club that it is almost natural being there.. no longer feels like such a drag, more like another check on my daily to-do list. I go no matter how I feel, that was my promise to myself, and it has already paid off. Strongly considering doing this for the rest of my dancing career.. think about the payoff in the end?!?

    I just found out about this. I don't think I can participate this month because I have a respiratory infection AND laryngitis at the same time, but if you have an October challenge, I am so down!

    I talked to a manager tonight. Apparently, I'm still a top earner...and I left with a little over $100 tonight. No clue what's up. I feel slightly irritated with all of this but at the same time resigned and accepting. It's where things are at right now, and I'm giving them until October to improve. If nothing changes, then I'll move to another club/look into travel dancing. We shall see, but at least my earnings are very slowly increasing again? Sad to say that at this point! lol It's all a part of life, right? The good times and the bad (:

    I think this is common. I have done this my whole dancing career. Once I've got enough cash in the bank, then I take a rest until it starts running out. The only exception was if I had a schedule to keep or lose my job, or when I was traveling and I had nothing else to do with my days, so I went to work.

    This time around, I've changed my goal from a reasonable one, to a very, very high one. That has helped me stay motivated to go into the club.

    I'm on day 4 for the week. On the plus side, that one annoying dancer got fired yesterday! Even though I was dog-tired last night, when I saw the bouncer cleaning out her locker and escorting her off the property I couldn't help myself but to feel deep schadenfreude. I was dancing around the club and doing a mini-celebration until the end of my shift. That girl was going to get the club shut down if someone didn't stop her. I'm so very glad she's gone. Looking forward to work today!

    Yea so I didn't go in at all this week. My mom came back from a sudden overseas trip she had to take to see my ailing grandma so I wanted to spend time with her. I also took the time to work out and catch up on schoolwork. I feel refreshed and ready to tackle next week.
