    Default I Stink.

    My new-ish bartending job is pretty cool, comparable to my old one in the Northern parts of Jersey. Its appearing more and more that it will be the one that will get me back on track with school, so I can get my degree (which will facilitate me leaving the job . Such irony).

    The downside is that despite it being one of the largest bars I have worked in, it is the freakin' smokiest I have ever encountered. I leave there with such a stench of smoke that I literally have to take off everything when I get home, and shove it in the clothesbucket immediately. That includes socks.

    Ive worked in smokey bars before, but this takes the cake.

    I dont envy all you dancers who deal with this night after night. Its not fun smelling like the ass end of an ashtray after work.

    Every single night when I get home I febreeze all my outfits and dance bag due to the smell. Every other night I handwash all my outfits... im a smoker and I cant stand the smell on my clothes from the club. Mind you there is no smoking in my apt so the smell hits me even harder when I get home.

    Once right after work, I was going to have make-up sex with my guy on his futon. But I gave him puppy eyes and said, "Would you think less of me because I stink like the bar?" (Smoky hair, stage grime. Usually I wash right before the act.)
    He said, "Think about that question."

    I'm still not sure what he meant, but I guess sometimes it doesn't matter.

I make all my money in the smoking room so I dont have to worry about non smoking customers complaining or being turned off since im sitting in the smoking room when I get my customers.

    I hate smelling like smoke when I get home from work too! Even if I don't wear an outfit, it will still smell like smoke, so I try to only bring along outfits that I plan on wearing. The smell of smoke gets in my hair, on my jacket...on everything!

    I have been seemingly blessed by Dog Almighty with a very poor sense of smell, so this never bothers me, whether I am smoking at the time or not.

    But I know lots of people who cannot stand it, so I understand where you are coming from.

    Think of the money, the degree, and get some scented candles or incense or something. It sounds like it's worth some annoyance to get what you want--and, I might add, what you so clearly deserve...

    i live in a house with two chain smokers, so i use scented linen water to spritz my clothes, hair, etc. very finely to get rid of the stench. it seems to help. just put a few drops of your favourite essential oil in a spray bottle and give everything a fine mist. if it's really bad, hang it on a hanger and get it damp with the stuff. make sure you air it out somewhere smoke free though. it usually works. you men can do this too- just use a few drops manly cologne instead of essentail oil.

    Febreze is your friend.

    This is the one and only thing I love about living in California. Nicotine junkies have to go outside for a fix; they don't get to stink up my clothes and hair inside. Woohoo!

    You don't even have to use the febreeze at full strength, you can get a small spary bottle and put half water and half febreeze and actually spray it right on you like a body spray while your behind the bar. That way you don't walk around smelling like Febreeze, I add a few drops of an essential oil in it and use it on my dance clothes before I put them on or away. Also burning some incense on the bar or by your register will help cover the smell.

    I'd forgotten how bad club smoke can be, working on a non smoking campus. when I was dancing over break it all came back to me.
    febreeze is my friend, as was hanging my stuff up in a well ventelated room.
    I've been using the fructese brand of shampoos and conditioners lately, and found that they helped alot in keeping my hair from smelling so bad of smoke

    Yeah, me too--thank god the managers haven't caught on to it yet...

    I've taken to keeping a bottle in the booth with me--if no one's looking I'll just squirt it right up my nose, and...aaaaahhh! But then sometimes the customers look at me funny when I start screeching and babbling into the mike.

    I'm trying to figure out a way to dry it up, so I can just snort the shit...
