Some basic measures to take to keep yourself from getting hurt, stalked, or killed because of being a stripper. Here is what I do to protect myself:
1. I never get drunk at work. Most of the time I don't even have one alcoholic beverage. If the customers feel better about me drinking, I order non-alcoholic beer in a glass. Same price as draught beer, and he doesn't know the difference.
2. I never give out my real name, or any information that can give the customer an idea where to find me in my off hours (i.e; I exercise at Bally Total Fitness, when in actuality I am a member or 24 Hour Fitness)
3. I always carry pepper spray with me. I bought it at a police supply store, so it is the good stuff.
4. I always have a male club employee walk me to my vehicle at the end of my shift.
5. If anyone follows me after I leave the club, I don't hesitate to call 911, or drive to City hall. I never drink, therefore I don't have to worry about DUI, and even if I did drink too much to drive, I would rather get a DUI than get killed by some crazy customer who will get cushy treatment in an insane asylum for the rest of his life.
6. And to deter those more determined individuals, I have my car registered to a P.O. box, and an invalid street address. So even if they do have access to DMV records, they aren't going to find me. I drive a nondescript car (a million others like it on the road) and have plain license plates. Something like personalized plates make you stand out like a sore thumb.
7. And lastly, I always have someone that I call to check in with before and after work. I call when I am safely inside the club, and when I have safely arrived home after work. This is usually another dancer or night owl friend, but always someone I trust totally. If I fail to call, they know something is up, and start looking for me.
