    Default I'm freaking out.

    So I moved back to a small(er) town, with small clubs, and annoying customers. I've had to switch my hustle up from super fast, to super slow. There really aren't that many hustlers where I work, its more like they consider a customer someone who feeds them drinks all night, which fucks up my game because I'm not there to get drunk. I've only worked weekends because it is dead dead dead on weekdays. I know its summer and all, and I have been making atleast 300, but I'm barely topping that.

    So. Ladies. What do you suggest?

    A. Commute to my old club thats an hour and a half away but open way later.
    B. Stick it out and start working weekdays.
    C. Head up North to NY for a week, two weeks and bust my ass.

    I vote to commute. I used to do this and if you're hard working and motivated it can very worthwhile to go to a club with a higher earning potential.

    Maybe you will even meet another dancer or employee who will let you crash at their place overnight, or you could stay at an inexpensive hotel if you work 2 nights to save on gas... I know gas is expensive, but I still think its worth it if you average at least $100-$200 more per night. Yeah, its a long drive, but driving its down time. Its not like working. Also, it makes you serious about work when you drive over an hour to get there.

    The cost of traveling vs. waiting it out should be a factor. Before going to NYC I say commute to your old club and see how everything goes.

    If you're clearing $300 after tip outs EVERY night on average, I would stay put, although if the club is as slow as you describe, $300 obviously ain't happenin' every night. Even though some small town places have low expectation dancers and less volume, the major city clubs have slower business too and more dancers than the club needs too. Plus the overhead of having to stay there vs. at home. The excess money you make on a busy night in a big city could easily be eaten up by nights where you aren't able to sell because it is slow.

    This really takes a careful analysis.

    Yeah I commuted last night, there is so much more $$ at my ex home club than where I'm at now. Ah well. I've done worse commutes to shittier places.

    Commuting definitely sounds like the better option, hopefully everything will work out well.
