It takes a lot to discourage me and I'm usually very good at holding my head high and believing that tomorrow will be another day. When money gets a little rocky I'll go in a bit earlier and take on more hours. But lately it just seems that no matter how hard I hustle or how long I work a shift, I'm just not making a reasonable amount anymore. My last shift was yesterday on Friday and I worked 6 hours and brought home $240... And that has been the most I've made on a weekend night in he past 3 weeks. A couple other girls were also saying they were having a rough time. But just by the looks of stage and the full 3/100 booths, it looked to me like the money was there... just not for me.
I felt on top of my game about 6 months back or so, and really had a lot of confidence. But after the constant streak bad of money, I'm starting to feel discouraged. I want to revamp my look incase I'm no longer holding up (which sucks, because I felt crazy hot just a little while ago) but literally can't afford to because bills need to take top priority... This hasn't been something I've had to choose one over the other for since I started dancing. Money for bills was done in like a week, maybe two... And now I'm living month to month. It's taking a toll on me and starting to be stressful. I'm coming up on my 2nd year of dancing... maybe this has just been my first REAL dry spell but I'm starting to worry things just won't ever get better. Advice? Suggestions? If you live in PDX have things been rough for you too?
Ive been keeping a journal and it really looks like my earnings last year around this time were better.
