    Exclamation NOT working weeknds anymore (if i can help it)

    So i've never really liked working weekends, but i just started at a new club about a month ago, so felt like i had to give all the nights a shot. last night was the 2nd time i've worked a fri night; let me just say i'm not doing it again unless i absolutely have to.
    i still walked with ok money, but the crowd there was just young, and cheap. there were a lot of thug types, and in the smaller stage room on fri nights they have guy strippers, so after their show ended all the girls came over to our side.
    the only good thing about the night is that i think i have my first 'customer.' he's very nice and respectful, easy to talk to. he gets a few drinks and usually 1 room a night, tips a little too. he's come in 3 times i've been working.
    but the weekend crowd is just harder to sell to, they all say their here for the show, to watch, blah blah blah!
    i make much more on weeknights, so i think i'll stick to that.

    sorry so long, i guess went off on a rant.

    Fridays seem to be a hit or miss for me...I either do really well or have such a horrible night that I end up not going in Saturday. It's always busy...but its not tha good busy...its the big groups going out for a couple beers and a little free titty show.
    Saturday is usually *knock in wood* (don't wanna jinx myself tonight) my best night.

    I work in a stage dance only club so I just work for tips now, but yea, when I danced in lap dance clubs, I would never work weekends. Too many girls and most of the guys who get dances only get one and are a struggle to get that one! I do much better weekdays (day and night).

    I know just what you're talking about..For those same reasons, I only work day shift. The young party guys come out at night, I'd much rather deal with older gentlemen there to spend money on dances not drinks.

    ^Ditto, and it seems especially bad here in Phx right now. I will avoid the club like crazy on a fri night... No day shift for me though, I wish I could!

    I still love the mid shift on fridays, I go in from like 3 to 9, everyone is stopping in after work and in a great friday mood. I take off, just as a lot more girls come on and guys start getting obnoxious.

    i worked maybe 2 friday nights the whole time i worked there, and never a saturday. a lot of girls refused to work friday nights. i did usually do pretty well on friday day shift though.

    Saturday nights are great, but Friday nights nearly always suck. I prefer the day shift too. I'm not a "party" girl and I get really irritated with the young party boys who think they're so much fun they shouldn't have to spend any money.

    I love Fridays. I have consistently made a killing since I started working Fridays. Saturdays are good, but I only worked a couple. I had guys literally lined up witing to get dances from me. I love my job.

    Friday nights seem to attract the party crowd and the working class paycheck types who tend to be obnoxious and tight with their money. If I had a choice of working Friday or Saturday, most of the time I would pick Saturday.

    In clubs with strong dayshifts, Fridays can be decent, especially those on or right after the 1st and the 15th.

    The problem is that the clubs don't have their DJ's push this weekend crowd to spend money. They just milk it for door fees and drink sales and the girls are on their own.

    Tonight made me want to swear off Saturdays forever. I made the same exact amount tonight as I did on Wednesday (which was good), but it was with so much more hassle and stress. It seemed like every motherfucker was gropy and grabby and from the beginning of the night I kind of knew that's how it was going to play out all evening.

    I spent about two hours in the DR just taking a break and sitting. I had already made most of my money and needed more, but I couldn't deal with the crowd. Then set before last I did very well on stage and got some dances from a couple of guys, both trying to grope me the entire time, but it was decent cash. Then the last set I got grabbed by two different guys, one of whom I threatened with a beer bottle if he didn't get off my stage.

    I have a love/hate relationship with my club. On the one hand, it's been a consistent source of excellent income, but on the other, it is so severely mismanaged that it almost outweighs the benefits. We have no bouncers, not one person watching out for us. Anything could happen to a girl in VIP, stage, or on the floor and no one would notice it unless she raised holy hell, which you obviously cannot do in every irritating circumstance. It's so ridiculous. You should see the guy who sells the bracelets for VIP, he's a 98 lb. weakling. It's a fucking joke that he'd even be able to say something to a guy who did something to a girl.

    Argh. I don't know. Some days I just feel like I'm too old for this shit. I'm 33-years-of-age and I had my tit grabbed tonight. When is enough going to be enough for me?

    Friday has always always been my best night. I hate Saturdays. Any town, any country, for me...Fridays rock, Saturdays are ok money but hard mentally.

    Friday nights are great where I work, but Saturdays are hit and miss.

    Meh even as a stage dancer im not fond of Fri nights... I always find Saturday nights to be my best night for stage shows... I make killer tips and the crowd is so much more into it.

    When I was a table dancer I HATED Fri nights... I would avoid them like the plague... ugh... cheap annoying assholes who are just there to insult the girls.

    At my club, I like Saturdays way better than Fridays. As a result, I hardly ever work Fridays. However, I would take Saturday over any other day of the week, because I usually make at least double!

    I DO NOT WORK FRIDAY NIGHTS! Too much of hang out environment for broke, young losers just starting their weekend off. I'll take a Saturday night over a Friday night anyday, though. Although...it was weird...tonight felt like a Friday night. I made a $100 less than what I usually make...and it was kind of a hang out night, too, in my club. AAARRRGGGGGGGHHHH!!! I just need to get the hell out of SA. There's no money in this town for dancers compared to other cities.

    Dude, I hate weekends where I live...... Generally, I do well, but it's so mentally draining dealing with all the broke asses and extra girls. The only weekends I like are in seasonal places where you can wanna dance and don't have to talk because the ratio of guys to girls is like 20:1.

    Weekends are amateur nights, plain and simple. The out-of-town business guys who are almost always the best spenders have left town and in their place we get young drunk broke guys and mixed groups out to party but not spend. I've only worked in a couple of clubs that had quality weekend crowds -- like in Austin on UT home game Saturdays, which are, of course, full of out-of-towners who spend.

    That's how it is for me. My club is by the airport and I always do great with the traveling businessmen. I can just do lapdances or VIP one right after another with them. The weekends at my club generally have young guys who just want to "hang out", flirt with you, or just watch the show. I especially can't stand the young kids who act like they are going to become rappers. These are suburban/rural Ohio kids too.

    I have a door fee of $100 that is a great motivator for me to do anything else except work at the club! No way am I paying that amount of money to work anywhere (not in Australia at least) ... only except is places like Townsville or other clubs where there is an actual LIMIT on the no. of dancers working each night (or percentage clubs where the club usually takes that or more in "their cut" from each dance i've done).

    I am always surprised at all the weekend haters. I have almost always made my best money on weekends. I do well with the young guys - it's all about volume.

    Some of the most effortlessly beautiful, kind, intelligent, successful, motivated, driven and ridiculously hilarious women that I have ever met have been dancers. I've met the best friends that I've ever had in this industry.
