    Default Best time to show up?

    just wondering... what time do you all usually like to show up for a shift? assuming you aren't scheduled for a specific time/don't have other obligations?

    lately i've been feeling like i either showed up too early or too late. sometimes i'll show up at 5-6 in an attempt to catch the after work happy hour crowd and get lower house fee.. but then the club won't end up getting any customers until around midnight. and by then i've been on stage a million times, sat around for hours, been rejected a lot already, and i'm hungry and kinda tired/drained. i make most of my money during the last few hours and wish i hadn't wasted so much time.

    on the flip side, sometimes i'll show up later, and the few good spending customers are already in VIP with other girls who got there before me. i pay a higher house fee and make shit money.. then i curse myself for showing up late.


    is it just about sheer luck? is it better to always show up early and hope for the best? i used to do that but my stamina isn't what it used to be a few years ago.

    I used to go in about the same time you mention but the club got deader and deader and it became a waste of time to sit around for hours with no customers. So I'd go in weeknights about 7-8 and and leave after 4-5 hours.

    I like getting there before all the other dancers get there because 1) I have dressing room to myself and don't have to listen to mindless conversations 2) I feel more confident hustling when I already have made money before all the mega hustlers get there 3) I hate hustling the late night party crowd

    I have noticed I tend to get lazy and tired at the end of the night if I've been there since 7, which causes me to miss out on the best money of the night. showing up at 9pm is the best for me personally.
    Do your future self a favor and work hard now.

    I find showing up at 9 or 10 at night works best for me in my club. It's around that time that the party starts and people start coming in and spending. I've sometimes come in earlier to work a full 8-hour shift, but I find I make the same amount of more if I just work the last four hours. The perk of working the full shift is that I don't have a house fee, vs. signing in by 10 and paying a $60 one. If I show up early, though, by time the money starts to roll in easy, I'm exhausted and more often than not, feeling pretty "done," so I don't take proper advantage of it.

    My club opens at noon. If I work a day shift, I go in around 2pm.
    Night shift, sometimes on busy days like Fridays, I will go in around 5pm (when all the day girls leave and night girls aren't even there), there will still be plenty of older/more 'serious' customers. Other nights, anything earlier than 7 is a waste of time, and I probably would do better to go even later.

    We're open until 2, and I prefer to be on the floor by 7, 9 at the latest. We have a four hour minimum before we can leave. I leave when I feel done, regardless of how much money I've made because I've danced long enough to think long run, as in, I get regular paychecks from my day job and I'm not going to damage my sanity for a little more money. But I also know when I've gotten the most I can by 1:15. By then I've usually already snagged a guy who will spend enough to keep me there until closing or have worked the available crowd enough to determine that I'll likely make maybe 40 more dollars which isn't worth staying for. But I don't like getting there too late because I don't like the lower odds of making what I want. It adds a level of stress that I'm not comfortable with.

    Ugh I'm bad. I come in at 11 or 11:30 p.m., usually work less than 4 hours, and pay the highest house fee. But...I'm getting better at getting right into hustle mode the moment I walk in. The club is already pack and I'm usually completely slammed the moment I walk in until the club closes.

    When I worked day shift, I would always come early. If I came when the club opened, the club actually gave me 20$ that I would use to tip the DJ. That way, even on a terrible day, I was never in the negatives. Also, as the club was still empty, I could practice my stage work. Then, when customers started trickling in, I got to their money first But Even at night I like to come in early. I think it's just my personality. I have this strong need to be punctual even if it's not necessary.

    My home club closes at 2am so I prefer to be on the floor by 7, although I can also get there at 9pm which is convenient. But, 9pm shift is only 5 hours and I like to start a little earlier for the extra cash.

    If I'm working in cities where clubs are open till 4am, 9pm would be when I'd want to start. A club I worked at in Chicago had their best shift starting at 11pm (till 6am). That was tiring!

    I always travel for work and work 3-4 weeks on every couple if months. Because I work so rarely, I usually work as long as I can. Sometimes that means pulling a lot of doubles and sometimes it means getting there as early as I can for the low shift fee. Since I'm away from home with not much else to do, I don't mind working as much as I can. Maybe an extra couple hundred from the early shift makes it worth it for me.
