    Default Waitressing in Nola Clubs?

    What I'd really appreciate is your view of management and generally how your club is run. If you have personal experience waitressing, please share!

    My deal: I'm in a pretty intense life moment right now. I'm dealing with an unplanned pregnancy and leaning very strongly toward keeping it. Since we found out me and my bf of 5 years have been arguing a lot. The reality is- the relationship has been bad for awhile. We both want this child and are intending to co-parent but separate as a couple. We are not vindictive and mutually agree the relationship hasn't been going in a good direction. With all that said- I need to find a 'real job' asap and start saving $ to move out and get my shit together.
    I danced off and on over the last 5 years. I've also got some experience waitressing in vanilla resteraunts. I figure if I can handle dancing I can handle waitressing. I've danced at almost every club on bourbon, but it's been almost a year. My guess is to start at the high end- pent house, ricks, etc. I'm wary of the 'guy' owned clubs because they bring extra crap to deal with. I am really hoping to find club where management and staff are generally functional and symbiotic. Maybe smaller less corporate places? (Babes? Cabaret?)
    Specific Q's:

    1. About how long do you think it would take to 'move up' in rank and get good shifts or work vip floors? (I'm thinking 3+ months working full time?)
    2. Will I be able to continue working when I begin to show? I have worked at clubs with pregnant waitresses but they were dives...should I expect corporate clubs to axe me?
    3. Same goes for pumping in the dressing room. Is it an issue?

    Any and all insight is extremely appreciated!

    im not familiar with EVERY club, but I am not aware of a female owned strip club on Bourbon.

    i would have a problem with a pregnant waitress..

    When people come to NOLA, they are looking for the Bourbon St experience. Its a fantasy that does not include a pregnant waitress/dancer, etc..

    However, some clubs will allow it, but I would not patronize that type of spot, nor would desired clientele

    if you've been working Bourbon for the last few years, you know there is a place for everyone in NOLA, its just about finding your niche and where you fit in.

    The type of things that go in NOLA clubs, as you're aware, would make an obvious pregnant person look like a future unfit parent..

    You would probably be able to get some sympathy/pity tips..but at what expense???

    You might want to acquire some marketable skills to assist in getting "your shit together", for your baby. Idk what you interests are, but there are short programs that will allow you to be gainfully employed/certified quickly.

    btw, ive worked at deja vu, hustler, babes, and little darlings (before it was an urban club), as waitress, bartender, doorgirl, hostess, etc.

    Never had enough rhythm to dance, lol...

    Have you ever considered camming or making pregnancy clips? Dudes with this fetish are pretty serious.

    As long as shes not showing, she'll be fine. there are plenty of dancers who dance up to 5 months pregnant
