    Default Will I Lose My Job?

    I'm pretty new to dancing- my background so far has been mostly retail.

    Happily for me, I now have money to do what I started dancing for in the first place- go on vacation!!

    I was just recently able to rent a vacation condo, and it was only available at the very end of July through early August. Perfect for me, but I do have one worry.

    Since I just now rented the condo, I just now know that I will need this week (and a half) off. This, in retail, would be considered extremely short notice. Most retail places require 2-3 weeks for one DAYS request off of your usual schedule, moreso for week long absences.

    Is the policy the same in SCs? Since there isnt exactly a tangible division of labor, I'm hoping that it wouldnt be a big deal for them to give me the time off. How much would they miss one dancer for a couple of weeks? But I'm also worried it may be the principle of the thing. That they dont like it when girls randomly ask for time off....I dont know, maybe I'm just being paranoid.

    I really love my job and the club but going on vacation is the reason I started dancing. I just have to go. I just hope that they dont say 'No' and force me to have to go without permission, losing my job. =/

    Nope, you're fine unless the management at your club is exceptionally unreasonable. They'll probably appreciate your giving them any notice at all. And the time you mentioned is notoriously slow anyway, so they can spare you.

    Same here. You're gonna love the scheduling freedom entertaining gives you! I finally got to go home to Hawaii for the Holidays! It was the first time in 9 years I spent Christmas with my family!

    I turn in a schedule request every week at my club. When I'm leaving for vacation for a couple of weeks I just write down the dates I'll be gone. I've never had a problem with it and up until last year, I used to take at least 10 days off of work every 2-3 months.

    I've even called my manager and told him I didn't want to work a shift because I was suffering from a bad attitude and couldn't handle the groping idiots that night. He said, "awww, we'll miss ya! Go make yourself happy and we'll see you nex shift!" I frickin' love this job sometimes!

    Does your club have schedules? Where are you working, what city? If it is a club with no schedules it won't matter.
