I know this is kinda the nature of this job, but it's weird to have a job where hard work doesn't necessarily mean more money. With most jobs, the more hours you put in, the more money you make. That's totally untrue with dancing. Like, I could work every single day at every hour, and if the right customer isn't there, that might still be bad $$wise. The flip side is also true... Sometimes I'm seriously lazy and I'll show up late and make bank in very few hours. It just seems that things are so inconsistent sometimes, and while I want to work hard, sometimes I get caught up thinking about whether the night will be bad or good, whether I'm wasting my time by even trying, or if I'll make ridiculous money for just sitting with the right person. Does this stress anyone else out? Does anyone have a way of thinking about it that helps?
