    Our weekend sucked last week, so I hope this one's better! Last Sunday was amazing, though - the night before a holiday usually is.

    I am always leery of the end of the month weekend's. Most people have rent and stuff to pay on the monday after, leaving them in broke mode until the next week. Adversely I have found that the first weekend of the month are better often because the customer's have a few week's before they have to start worrying about bill's again. I will add here that my customer's love to prove me wrong and usually do as I hope they do this weekend because I expect it to be mediocre at best.

    Yep I always have my best week in the beginning of the month. They've got their first payday after bills then.

    hrm, that makes sense too, Bob.

    I have a day job and we only get paid once a month and it's always the last day of the month, unless that falls on a weekend, so I feel rich today!

    I work at a major corporation and we get paid every other Friday.

    My best guess would be the first Friday after the 1st. everyone has to pay rent/mortage on the first, but the next Friday is usually a free paycheck!

    I work at a club that doesn't maintain a schedule, so dancers can come and go as they please. I've found that not enough dancers are smart enough to save a little bit each week towards rent...so as a result the last weekend of the month there are usually 20-30 extra girls working and running around moaning "My rent's due tomorrow and I only made a hundred dollars tonite boo hooo hoo!!!"

    So Emily, thanks for that insight. I wasn't looking forward to going in tonight and hearing the locker room moan....but I'll see if you're theory holds true.

    I agree that In clubs that don't control/limit the number of girls allowed to work on a given night, the end of the month usually sucks. But this isn't due so much to the fact that customers don't have as much money to spend, it's due to the fact that the same amount of money must be split in more ways due to the presence of extra dancers but the same number of customers.

    In clubs that do control/limit the number of dancers working on any given night, the end of the month (extending to the first weekend of the next month) are usually better than average. I would guess this is due to the fact that some guys do get paid twice a month, at the middle (which mostly goes for bills) and at the end (which has more left over for frivolous expenses). Some "professional" guys also receive month end "bonuses" based on their sales performance or brokerage commissions or something similar, which further increases frivolous spending during the last week of the month / first week of the next month.

    Another phenomenon like this revolves around clubs which cater to union/hourly workers who get paid weekly. If you ask which day of the week is their pay-day, and then check your calendar, you'll discover that four months out of the year they have 5 pay-day's instead of 4. The last week of the month /first week of the next month are [email protected]*k!ng-teed to be gangbusters when these "fifth pay-day" months roll around !

    The 'over 65' demographic receive their SS checks too!

    Glad to see that money deducted from MY paycheck is going to such a good cause.

    I would think the opposite. The first of the month is rent/ mortgage/ car payment etc. The second check is the one with the discretionary extras. LOL.

    When I work in Houston which like Britney's club in Phoenix has no schedules, the last week of the month has lots more dancers and sometimes the customer count is lower too. These girls haven't been around all month until the rent money is needed.

    But also in Houston where I worked the Friday of the 1st or immediately following the 1st and the Friday of the 15th or immediately following the 15th during the day from lunchtime until just after happy hour usually has a full house and for me with no sexual activity with the customers $300-$500 can be made in that time frame.

    In Montana clubs the weekend of the 1st and 15th are usually decent with the other ones in between being "iffy". In the Midwestern booking clubs that I work in such as in South Dakota it doesn't matter about the time of month since most of the customers are farmers or ranchers or are in some type of related business and are self employed. These guys have money to spend but in the beginning of farming season get busy working the farm until dark and don't come to the clubs as frequently. Then on Saturdays 4-5 middle aged farmers will drive in to town together and have a good ol time and spend decent money. Their wives know its boys night out LOL.

    Well I just finished the Fri-Sat weekend and it was pretty good! There was a decent amount of business and, amazingly, not as many girls as usual on the last weekend of the month. We had too many girls on Thursday, but everyone still made money, so I guess the ones who wait til the last minute to make the rent made it on Thursday and skipped out on the weekend. HA better for the rest of us! I love it when I'm wrong like that!

    My weekend was pretty good as well; and on Friday I had one of those nights where every guy I danced for was really nice to boot. There were a lot of girls working but the club was crowded and the guys were spending. Of course, the Texas Harley rally was in town as well, so we had lots of out-of-town bike enthusiasts in, too, and that helped.
