I don't socialize at work. I do my thing and get out. However, in the dressing room, I overhear conversations. Sometimes, someone starts talking to me and I'm stuck listening. The focus: How much money they earn. They talk about how Mr. Blahblahblah gives them $10,000/week or how they earn at least $1000/shift or who bought them a Lexus. And I feel just awful. I get none of this. No one brings me gifts. No one ever has.
I work in a small-ish club with no champagne rooms. My only upsell is a $20 private dance. Tables dances are $1. They really are $1. I hate them. I work my butt off in the club. Everytime I go to work, I know that I will bring home at least $500. Since April, I have had 4 shifts when I took home less, but they were all at least $350. Logically, I know I am doing well. I work within my boundries and feel good about myself. Then again, I feel terrible that I'm not getting $1000 tips like other dancers say that they're getting.
I do leave work at work. Maybe that's why. I don't feel comfortable contacting customers on my own time. I won't hang out with them either. I'd feel weird.
I'm just bummed. I don't why I feel as if what I'm earning isn't good enough, even though I know it's more than enough. You know what I mean?

Me and you have had tons of conversations about your club. You and I both know you are AWESOME! So what if those girls "say" they make $1000 you were the first one who ever told me not to buy into that crap!
