Hey y'all, so i went into the club to audition, with all my gear, ready to work. got a trial shift and did my first stage set. buuuut long story short i was too freaked out and i left 2 hours in. so these are some questions i have:
- do you have to stay the whole shift? manager said the shift would end at eight, which was eight hours away. fuck man i've heard of coming in prepared but i was NOT prepared to spend eight fuckin hours there without knowing if i was officially hired on. which brings me to...
- how do auditions normally work?? i was signing papers and everything, and i paid the house fee. the manager said if i got hired on, the second day would be free. but the audition i guess was the entire shift? isn't it usually like you perform a dance or two in front of the manager? or am i just a dumb bitch
- are you expected to do anything? this is what i mean: the club was slow as fuck right? and i was walking around trying to find my bearings. and there were maybe five customers in the club. i know you're supposed to approach ppl, get them to buy dances, "hustle" etc. but will you be fired/reprimanded for just sitting around? or hanging out in the dressing room? like what else are you supposed to be doing?
- can i go back to the same club and try again? lol like if i come back and say "ok im ready now" will they be okay with it? or will they be like "no fuck you, you couldn't get through the whole shift"
i was so paranoid that my every move was being watched and dissected by the manager, waitresses, other dancers etc. i guess i was just not ready yet, cuz i think i dissociated the entire time i was there. like, 'wow this is actually happening...' but after the shock wore off, i felt i still wanted to try.
sorry, i'm hype i guess haha
thanks![]()
