So I had one drink at work tonight. ONE. I made $201 tonight and it was pulling teeth to get it. Since I had the drink in the last hour and felt buzzed, I had the general manager breathalize me in the parking lot after i got my keys from the valet just to make sure i was ok to drive.
I always put my money for the night in my front right pocket. Tipout money goes in the left. I emptied the left pocket for tipouts. I get home, and my money in the right pocket is gone. Not in my front walkway. Not in my pockets. Not in dance bag. Not under seats in the car. Gone. An entire nights earnings. Lost. SOmeone made an easy $201 bucks that it was hell to make for me. I got naked for free. I called the club to see if anyone had in the slight chance been honest and had the mgr check the parking lot for me. No luck. Didnt think so.
Has this happened to anyone else? I feel like shit, but too tired to cry. I feel even stupider because i got buzzed at work, which i NEVER do. It's one of my rules so i can keep my mind on the money and the money on my mind. Break it once, get fucked once. I didn't think i had a lesson to learn. I know i did the right thing by blowing at the end of the night to see what my blood alcohol level was. ANd i get fucked.
Moral support? Please? THis feels horrible.

Don't worry, hopefully you'll make that back plus more the next time you work.
My advice is to get over it, pretend you never had it, you will be in a bad mood for too long and it will effect you.

sucks to be you tho. i hate losing money, but i figure, easy come, easy go. $200 is an easy wage for us even on a bad night, 200 for someone else on the other hand...
