Hi everyone!
I have to be in Miami for my vanilla job Nov 29th- Dec 6th. Since I'm low on cash money, and i know FL is good in winter, i want to work a few shifts at a club before and/or after those dates.
I've never travel-danced by myself before (Tampa in 2009/2010-ish for an audition, WV for an agency). I feel intimidated and worried that I'll fuck up somehow. And I don't drive, so i cant rent a car.
I don't need to make bank, but i do need to AT LEAST break even on my travel/ living expenses out there, ideally make a lil extra for bills/ plane tickets the next few months. So my low goal is $2000 (obvs more is better, but dancing is not my priority for this trip).
Does anyone have advice on where to go, where to work, where to stay for cheap? I'm reading some of these threads and they're helpful, but I'm wondering if you have any specific feedback for me and my situation. I'm finally feeling super self-conscious about looking "too old" or seeming "too jaded." Im only 29 but been dancing 8 years, and i know I don't feel/ look like when i was 21. I worked less than 5 shifts this year (lowest performance record ever), my hustle was weak, i was too bored and burned out.
I'll be fine if i find an affordable room and a club i can make $300-600(+)/ shift and work 6-8 shifts in three weeks, including when I'm supposed to be at the vanilla job. Willing to try a relaxed dive instead of a shark tank, if it means the competition/ customers not gonna drive me crazy, bc i do need to keep my sanity for multi-tasking reasons. But yeah if the shark tank is *really good* i could bite the bullet and just go for it, too.
Doing research is bringing back the memories (both good and bad). I don't wanna risk working Miami if its gonna be hell getting a job/ commuting/ making money. My backup plan is just going to Baltimore to work at my old home club for the $$$, and fly to Miami just for the 1-week vanilla work trip. But does seem like a shame to not work Miami while I'm there during the right season. And I do like trying new things.
Q: How hard is it to get hired in late November?
And can I start working immediately?
For reference, this is what i look like now(ish)- when i worked 1 (or 2?) shift in July. lol. i forget. And i was kinda out-of-shape then, actually. I could tone up for November if that helps. But my boobs are natural B and not huge and I feel like Im getting bonier, my butt is flatter than it used to be. I don't wanna get plastic surgery done, so maybe this year will be my last hurrah? IDK.
p.s. i'm Asian FYI if you didn't already know. And i've worked Tampa (2 nights), RI, Baltimore, NYC before; personally don't do extras but familiar w full nude or high contact clubs.
Thanks for any/ all feedback! xoxo
I gotta buy tickets so i do have to decide pretty soon.
