    Default Reasons we strip part time:

    This is a thread for all the part time strippers.....

    I think stripping part time should be just as respected as being a career stripper. We're strong women too.

    My reasons to dance "only" part time:

    Because I want to!

    I live to work, I don't work to live!

    I like having tons of free time to do my own thing, persue my intrests, have lots of hobbies.

    I enjoy the flexibility of working when I want to. And NOT working when I don't want to work!

    It's an "in the mean time"job.

    At one point I was burnt out bad, and I don't want to have it happen again.

    I do it to suppliment my "real" income.


    So.... those are my reasons, as veried as they are.

    what are yours?

    Because I would go insane working more than 3-4 shifts per week.

    There are some women on here who consider anyone who works less than 5 shifts a week to be inferior and lazy and I think that's kind of pathetic and laughable.

    I hope you're not talking about me! I am just a 5-6x/week girl because I have nothing better to do. I wish I had something better to do.

    I'm all for the girl that comes in occasionally. There are too many girls already!

    What Lola said and I have an awesome career in the entertainment field.

    Also, you have heard about what some of the dancers in Los Angeles are up against: lower dancer income. I could never be a career dancer out here, I do for fun and because I am good at it

    NO! Definitely not talking about you. I don't think you judge the girls who go in less frequently.

    Now, on another note, it IS a little frustrating to hear about financial difficulties from girls who go in 3 days a month.

    I only go into the club 2-3 days a week. For several reasons:
    1: I like having my time to myself and with my family/friends
    2: I have other jobs I do as well
    3: I'm a lazy bitch
    4: How could I give up my valuable SW time?

    I used to work 5x a week for years, either stripping or when I was doing the corporate thing.

    Now I've learned to maximize my earnings by working my tail off 10-14 days straight a month, for the past year.

    I use the rest of the month to travel, play outdoors, spend time with friends and family.

    I'm thinking about starting grad school next summer, cuz sometimes I feel guilty with the time I have off. I like being busy, and since I travel to work I can't really get a day job.

    I was a part-timer because I was in college. Now I'm a part-timer (who also seems to be on a really long break) because I love my other job at the art school, and they've just upped my hours because I'm in such high demand . The money isn't bad at my other job; it's not stripper bucks, but it pays the bills just fine. I'm hoping to find a casual, busy club where I can work one night a week. My plan is to put whatever money I make from the club directly into savings, because that's the one thing my day job wages don't permit. Plus, I like the club when I work 1 or 2 nights a week... but I have to make sure I'm scheduled for those nights, or else I'm likely to flake. I'm always happy once I get there, though, and start raking in the $20s. And then not having to come back for a week... sweet.

    That's awesome! I'd love to hear your reasons why this has maximized your earnings over 3-4 days/week, and more on why it works for you...I can see how it really would tho! A nice long break without worrying, because you know you already made your money for the time period. I'd just be worried about spending too much, or *dreading* going back.

    I hope your not talking about me either. I've said before I think it should be treated like a real job if its your main source of income. If your not in school and not doing anything else then yea I think it should be a 5 day a week thing. I get annoyed at hearing about girls whine and bitch they have no money when they can't seem to work more then 2 days a week. As for this 'i get burnt out shit' then how the hell would you handle a job in the real world? Now don't get me wrong if your juggling school and stuff then yea I can understand being burnt out, but if your not doing anything else then there is no reason to be burnt out.

    Im a 6 days a week girl because thats what im booked. When I work in Winnipeg im working noon till 1am, 6 days a week. Thats the way our days work. Mind you we do like 2 shows at noon then 2 or 3 around 5pm then have a break till about 8pm then we have floor time(selling private shows) until 1 or 130am. *shrug* its just the way things run here.

    I don't think girls are lazy for not doing it the way its done here. Its just the way I choose to work *shrug*

    Im actually kind of jealous of the girls who can get away with stripping part time lol

    ^^ But there was also good points made to girls who have posted "But I feel so lazy! I'm not in school and I can't work more than 3-4 days a week!" Ppl have pointed out, that it's not *lazy*, it's how you are at work the time you're there. Are you maximizing your earnings? Some ppl feel lazy about, for no other reason than the amount of days they work, period. I also worked in an XTREMELY high contact club, grinding, touching, rampant xtras, all of that. I always made $$ clean, but was constantly Kung-Fu Stripper (thanx Ginger) and that wears on you much more than lower contact places.

    So to be on point:

    --Working PT is great, because you are not wearing yourself thin and being inefficient on days off, and you are giving yourself a break and not putting the pressure on yourself, because you respect yourself and know your limits.

    --You might stop having less dreams/nightmares about it!

    --You might stop talking about it with yr SO ALL the time!

    --It might not occupy your thoughts quite as much on time off!

    I see where you are coming from but I cant agree. I've been doing this for over 6 years and I get burnt out QUICK now. I'm just getting too old for it I guess. If there was good money then I might not...but when I know damn well I'm going to bust my ass for 6,8,12 hours dealing with assholes just to leave with crap money...it isnt worth me going in more then 2-3 days a week. Yeah I want to make more moeny...but the extra cpl hundred I MIGHT make by doing a 5 day work week isnt worth the physical and emotional toll it will take on me.

    Back in the day of course when I knew that on the shittiest night I'd leave with $300..it was worth pushing myself to work 5 or 6 days a week. Now...I'd rather find another way and spend that time recuperating at home.

    And I had no problem doing a normal work week when I quit dancing for 8 months. In at 9 out at 6 or 7... 5 days a week. Because I wasnt beating the shit out of my body.
    Of course I was also bored to tears which is why I went back to stripping!

    Cameron your also doing a million other things lol... doing shoots and stuff plus dancing... hell yea your gonna burn out.

    Alaska I used to work in a extras rampant club where it was drunk rowdy retarded men constantly trying to shove their fingers up your cooch and grabbing you and trying to bite you... I worked 6 days a week from 6pm - 2am, still as a clean kung foo stripper. I didn't have to work 6 days a week as I was a regular house girl but I did it. Mind you I was working towards a goal.

    Everyone handles things differently... some people have it in them, others don't. Im not saying that there is anything wrong with the people who don't have it in them.

    Again I say im jealous of the girls who can get away with working part time lol. I go crazy thinking im being lazy if I don't... guess thats from growing up on a farm heh...

    I am in no way flaming anyone... I just want to make this clear

    Cally, I was nto talking about you. I really can't imagine you expecting others to work as much as you work knowing how much it takes out of you.

    However, I do not think that everyone can or should work 5 days a week, whether a stripper or not. The five day work week is arbitrary and says nothing about a person's work ethic. If you can make enough to pay your bills and save for your future working less I think that is a fine choice. I think an awful lot of psychological, physical, and societal problems result from folks desiring more than they need and pushing themselves too hard.

    Because I don't want to burn out.

    Because I never just strip. I always have another job for the health benefits and the reliable paycheck.

    Because my toes hate me for my heels as it is... I can't imagine how much they'd hate me if I danced more.

    I guess another thing about going PT is after you've worked FT, you notice the difference and like it better! i.e. you'll never wonder what you're missing. (Well at least you KNOW yr missing $$!)

    I was a FTer, and tho it was taxing at times, it didn't really bother me. I'm just glad I have the experience, and that way I can better understand PTers.

    I haven't worked since March, but I'm going back in Oct, PT cuz now I'm in school. I'm ready to accept that, because I know what it's like working FT. Yay!

    Yeah, but when I'm not shooting, I'm lazy and only work 2-3 days a week. Of course..when I AM shooting its more like 12 hours a day 6-7 days a week. Feast or famine!

    I just find that I dont have the patience for the club anymore. Maybe I"m burnt,maybe I'm too old for it..I dont know. All I know is I'm tired of having the same conversations 100 times a day, telling guys that I dont do extras and no they arent "special" enough for me to get on my knees, no I dont want to date the guy old enough to be my grandfather...blah blah blah

    It just makes my head ache. More then 2 days in a row and I feel like my brain is going to leak out my ear and run away so it doesnt have to think about this shit anymore.

    Of course...the area is a big part of it. If it was like it used to be or how it is in other places( I wish I had someone to travel with again) where its more of a party have fun crowd...I'd deal much better. But the guys around here lately are more get-everything-they-can-for-no-money types. Meh. I hate them.

    If I worked full time, I'd never have the energy to work out, get my nails done, or get my hair done. Then I'd be a very unnatracrive stripper, and probably still broke.

    because that's just how i like it. i go through spurts of working a lot, but while i'm in school i don't have a choice. and it's better that way, i make more money on the days i am there because i don't mind giving up yet another night to work so i'm in a better mood.

    I'm a very private and asocial person, and a few shifts a week is all I can handle. Any more and I feel terribly put-upon and stressed out and resentful for having to be social.

    I could handle more of the dancing part but the social part of it is exhausting to me.
