So, I am back to working in a club for the winter. I work at a very upscale place, which has an amazing light show, a shower stage, and a car that drops from the ceiling. Those of you from MI will recognize this as the Flight Club.

The clientele are nice, though I am not sure I am making anymore f or my $110 tipout than I was at clubs that cost me $25; but, my current issue is that every time that damn fog machine comes on, I end up in a coughing fit. NOT sexy. And, now I am sick (going to the doctor later this week), with full lungs and a sore throat. F*cking great. What I am wondering is if it could be related to the fog machine? I've worked in a lot of clubs that use them, but most use them sparingly during the day (and I only work days); so, I've been able to largely avoid it. This club spends most of the time full of the stuff. Thoughts? Suggestions aside from asking them to cut down (this club is not notorious for it's consideration of dancers)? Possible OTC meds to help with the allergy? Is this why I've been sick pretty much since the day I've started, when I've not been sick in years? Could it be something else altogether?
