    come in on Monday! b/c I will be, lol, and now I'll be all sad if you don't show up.

    anyway, try putting a schedule card in. It's easy to say you don't feel like coming in if there's no schedule and no one's expecting you to show up anyway. Put a schedule card in and now you're accountable, and it'll cost you money to not show up. Plus is you schedule yourself, you save $20 on the house fee.

    Oh and here's another little incentive...if you haven't been there in a month, you're in for a pleasant surprise when you hear the music they're allowed to play now. We actually have variety! They're playing R&B and rock and good dance music, not just the same cheesey pop crap all night. Apparently you-know-who doesn't have as much influence over the music nowadays

    Hey.

    No one really likes their job. Except for a few very lucky people like parachutists and mountain climbers and ice cream makers. But even they have to deal with extreme weather and getting up at ungodly hours.

    There are nice things about stripping. Taking your clothes off for money. For lots of money, ideally. Meeting new people. Hearing random new music constantly. Being able to say 'fuck it' and leave until your money runs out.

    But at the end of the day (night) you are still taking ~eight hours of your day and doing something you would rather not be doing... because it's a JOB. It's how you make the money you need for day to day living and also to build up a financial base for the future.

    It's a JOB, it's a job you don't need a resume for, it's a job that gives you freedom but you need to take that freedom.

    Here's a great thread I have bookmarked. I've looked at Tina's (the top post) post SO MANY times and it always inspires me, or at least makes me feel guilty.

    I admit, it makes me feel so much better knowing I'm not the only one feeling this way

    I'm feeling burned out as well but it is hard for me because I have become accostomed to the lifestyle of a dancer..not just having cash on hand, but the flexibility, and the fun aspect of it all. My favorite things in life are dancing and music...the only thing that upsets me is how slow it is and how dirty the clubs are getting...back when I first started it was MUCH easier to sell clean dances and if dirty stuff was going on I didn't see it and it didn't much affect me because I was so busy doing dances I didn't care. Now I feel like guys expect so much and it is harder to sell dances on the floor...I can't pass up the opportunity to go in VIP but lately whenever I go back there guys are so agressive I almost start having an anixety attack...I feel really cheated because I spent alot of time and energy learning the game and trying to get really good at what I do and get over my crippiling shyness and now it is like well for what? The disrespect some guys show you is really getting to me lately too.

    I'm not a materialistic person...I don't need the BEST but I like quality and want a comfortable lifestyle and steady income...I'm a hard worker but sometimes I feel like no matter what your work ethic in this buisness it is just luck in alot of ways. But I'm a serious saver and try not to put myself in desperate situations but I know there will come a time where I will have to get used to another lifestyle with another job just because of what the level of expectation is becoming in clubs. Which sux...because I love dancing and paryting and entertaining and I think I am good at it and really enjoy it I would love to do this untill I am thirty at least but I just find it dissapointing with how this business has gone down so much that I don't know if I will even be able to make money within my comfort level by that time.

    i seriously don't want to go in tonight at ALL. i havent been doing well lately, and i know it's partly because i dont make the money i used to so then i get frustrated and it just goes in a circle. i want to work because im taking 2 weeks off at the end of july for vacation, so i need to work a lot now. but im just so exhausted right now and i dont know if it will be worth it since the 4th of july is this week.. blah.
