I switched clubs. I work at a club about 5 mins away from my house.
I walked in there a day after u almost crashed my car coming home from Detroit. I walked in on day shiftto check it out and it was dead as a door knob. But come to find out the dj was an old friend from school I lost contact with. We talked business/working there and I started night shift.
The managers were surprised I made as much as I did; but they have to understand as a newbie I worked in a big club with 30+ dancers so this is a piece of cake.
But now im starting to catch on to ALOOOOOT of bullshit…
1. My “friend” is starting to MISUSE me…not use me (because you can use me in a good way). For example, he will not ASK me to take him somewhere, he will tell me to take him somewhere. UUUUUHM HELL NAW!!! TF we are cool but im grown as fuck and you better learn how to speak to me or don’t speak at all.
Plus he has people thinking we are dating.
2. I dance in Detroit, and although we have our issues there I’m used to certain things. For instance, bouncers, workers are respectful…but here hell naw. I went to the dj booth to request my song sets and I told one of the bouncers excuse me and he did not move. Like petty!!!
3. The workers are unprofessional.
4. The dj is stupid
5. The way the club is ran in ridiculous. They are supposed to HELP the dancers maximize their hustle. For example, instead of shouting the people out on the dance floor, and dj’ing the regular customers and encouraging them to dance WHY ARE YOU NOT DOING THAT FOR tHE DANCERS?
6. WHY ARE THE STAFF BUYING DANCES FROM THE CUSTOMER AND NOT THE DANCERS!!!
7. Im not trying to be stuck up but I don’t want to talk to you, and do drugs with you.* From me to another dancer*
8. Why can the dancers openly do extras without consequences?
9. Back to point 1. I think my “friend” has bad mouthed me because everyone thinks we are dating and treating me different. I was gonna tip a bouncer to walk me to my car and my “friend” was rude and turned the whole situation sour.
10. Im a nice person but im to the point where im aout
11. Pile splitting – if a customers makes in rain just on the stage girls will run for the money and hurry and pick it up for themselves, instead of splitting it among ourselves. But that’s not so ad because I take it all now. J
12. The girls complain about not making a lot and I always fill up a bag. The managers stopped letting me get bags to fill up as well, they said I have to bring my own grocery bags. #petty
This is turning me into a hustle monster BUT its just ashamed it has be like this.
Im irritated, and I don’t want to be bothered unless its about the money. I speak when spoken to, ignore the girls and get my money.
I just feel like it’s a new part of me trying to break out of the shell. The business is changing me but not necessarily for the bad.
When did you recognize the bs in the business/club/people? When did it change you and how?
