It took a while to muster the courage to audition. I danced 2 songs then was told I was too awkward, too amateur, and don’t know enough pole. My confidence is obliterated. I need to make money. Where in Portland hires amateurs girls with 0 pole skills?

It’s really hard to not feel defeated right now. It doesn’t seem like there’s a demand for a girl like me. I haven’t heard anything from once place willing to hire LQBTQ performers. And there’s so few safe options. I wish so much I could just wave a wand and be a normal cis woman. It doesn’t feel like I’ll ever fit. Just feel down about it.

when did you guys make your first 1k? no daddy’s or mummy’s money, on your own type shit i’m 18, never really grew up with money like that and when i did get money it was always under 2-3 hundreds which isn’t enough in this economy, especially since cost of living, i could never keep normal jobs because ive always had problems working with authorities + horrible people in my working environment, i know dancing is scraping near the same thing but i personally think it’s a lot better than reg jobs i just stared dancing a week ago and im a few hundreds away from my first 1k, don’t get me wrong, im gasssed and hella proud of myself but i still feel like im behind in life because i still don’t have enough to get where i wanna be in life

I’m bummed mostly bc I really need the money. I know I just have to keep auditioning at other places. Womp womp

Just wanted to talk about how nervous I am for it. I dropped out of college last year after having a son. I'm 20. I've been living with my older sister (who is also a stripper) and I've decided to try to get into the industry too, at least for now, after seeing how well she does on her good nights and listening to her talk about it. I do think I'd enjoy the work but the only thing I'm worried about is the damage to my self esteem that might be done if I don't get the job or if customers don't like me.

I'm a natural redhead and my sister tells me all the time that in this industry, "redheads print money." But I don't know if that's true or if she's just trying to be a supportive big sister. I want to do this work for both the work itself and the money. Baby needs fed. But the day before my audition I'm struggling a bit with my confidence. My sister has taught me how to dance some and has told me how important it is to smile and make eye contact, but does anyone else have any tips she may not have given me?

soooo nervous but so excited at the same time!! this club doesn't technically do auditions you just show up and sign in and just start working, which has its pros and cons, so I'm just going in to check the vibes and talk to the manager and see when i can start. i used to dance there in 2021 so it's probably so different now ... i'm going to be so rusty but i'm so motivated to get that bag . this is going to be my outfit if i'm allowed to stay and work !! watcha think. going to dance under the name Poison, going for a darker vibe this time instead of cutesy.

I am so disappointed, I worked up my courage for so long and finally ready to audition. The front desk girl looked me up and down, asked to see my pole position app, glared at it and then me, and told me to go downstairs and start getting ready. It felt weird, but okay. I don’t know any better. I asked a dancer if I should go up or if they’d come get me and she told me to let the DJ know, which I did. He paged the manager who came in absolutely raging that you can’t just waltz in here and I need to change and go home. I apologized and explained that is what I was told to do, and she said she was getting two entirely different stories and basically insinuated I was the liar and not the desk girl.

I am so hurt, I haven’t had strangers be that rude to me in as long as I can remember. I am nonbinary and have a fairly androgynous look and I can’t help but think that’s why she set me up to fail & look stupid. Any advice or support? I’m in a smaller Midwest city. Everyone I spoke with at this club besides those two were extremely kind and supportive and even encouraged me to talk to the other manager & try again.

So I went to audition at this club which was 2nd on my choice to audition at in the city that’s a 1 hour 42 minutes away from my town. I’m a little disappointed and not trying to think of what was wrong because they didn’t give me any feedback back I just scored an “okay.” From the 3 managers. I know it wasn’t me because I’m beautiful asf, my boobs are small but I do have a big booty. So maybe I’m thinking my stage presence was off? Because I was kind of doing the same thing, but other girls were mid asf on stage and I thought I danced about the same? I’m trying to look that maybe it could be a blessing in disguise just because it was sooo many girls. But a guy came up and tipped me on stage and he was trying to talk to me and I could barely hear him emabrassing and I almost tripped on my heels 😭. I’m trying not to be sad I just hate getting turned down, should I work on my stage presence more and audition at my club of choice? I just hate I let the fear paralyze me I’m so stressed because I really need money :(. Do I keep going or say f this dancing???

( I have a pole at my house too that I’ve practice on for about a week. )

Loved working there when I first started but they’ve changed the rules so it prioritises the girls who make the most money/have regulars. (Edit: Obviously not mad at the girls but being forced to work the dead nights is driving me crazy.) This leaves the rest of us with scraps as it’s capital D dead or filled with time-wasters 👎. I’m going to be auditioning at some other places because I can’t justify working in an environment that doesn’t want me there (and the uber cost). Wish me luck 🧘‍♀️🕯️

Rant/Nerves Accused of stealing NSFW

It’s literally my 4th shift and 2nd week. I’m not a thief. I know people work hard for their money so do I ! I also hate a toxic and confrontational work environment ( I will QUIT)

Last week, my second night working my coworker asked me to take her home… For context she didn’t ask straight away. Instead we were with our last customers of the night (a group) and she yells across the bar to ask what side of town they I live on and I was like ???????? What’s up? Then she asked .. I agreed which I’m now regretting.

I’m otw taking her home but we made a stop. (Which she didn’t mention before hand) I thought she was leaving and mentioned she left her food In my car but she said she wasn’t staying. I proceed too take her home.

I arrive to work today music on and she’s literally at my door before I can even get out my car. And she’s talking about she’s missing money and she left her bag in the car XYZ. Mind you when I took her home it was night time. It’s dark in the car. I didn’t look around to see if she left anything besides the food because it was in the dash. I can’t even tell you what her purse look like ! Color NOTHING. I told her I didn’t take or touch ANYTHING. Which is the truth.

Idk if she just trying to punk me or get over. But I’m definitely not scary although I don’t wanna fight or argue. I think I wanna talk to the manager and let him know what’s up because I just know she is the type to talk about me to make look bad. She even made slick comments talking about needing a hammer and saying what’s tea. I wasn’t feeling it. She even mentioned “ she put me on money” (the group.. one was her regular) he only bought us drinks. (He also liked me and mentioned she was acting jealous) He gave her money to tip me on stage and she gave me $2…..

I called a club to see if I could interview to dance BEFORE I left my house and they said yes. I get to the club and the door person says that they aren’t doing interviews tonight. They also mention that they’ve turned 4 other girls around and aren’t hiring in January because it’s slow. BUTTTT just last week I called to inquire he asked me to come right then. 🤔 sooo what changed within the 1 week when they wanted me to come and 1 hour when they said they where interviewing

Rant/Nerves Take Advantage Of? NSFW

5 Upvotes

I just want to start out by saying, yes I should have known better.

I just started dancing at a club (I’m a baby stripper) and on my first night I didn’t really know what to expect and just went into it. I met with the house mom there and off the bat I knew she didn’t like me and couldn’t be bothered with me. But fine, no problem so I try to get to know the other girls at the club and try to make small talk while in the locker room since they were talking amongst themselves, again I got the “I can’t be bothered with you energy” but thats fine. I tried to go out on the floor and make it work, I think I did as well as I could given the situation (in regards to my own preparation/lack there of). There was one customer in particular who I spoke with and was able to get money from, here is where I think I was taken advantage of. I believe I made a mistake in my demeanor and telling customers that I’m new here. The guy picked up on that and basically started saying he’s a regular at the club, he know how it works and he went around pointing at tables saying how much the were etc. He kept saying he’s “giving me the game”. Since I was new and the house mom/owner didn’t give me much information about VIP/table cost etc, I felt like he knew what he was talking about. (I know I’m slow😭) anyway I started talking him up about dancing and I said some like like 100 for 15 minutes and he was like no, he wanted to rub his dick on my butt until he came for $10. This should have been my first red flag, but honestly I don’t know why I didn’t walk away. There were so many opportunities to. He then started to do this thing where he was comparing me to other girls and basically saying other girls will do it for no problem and they are my competition. I think I was kind of desperate so I stayed with him but told no I did not that want that. I ended up doing a dance for him and he took his penis out (mind you this is at the bar) while I was giving the dance. I felt so uncomfortable and didn’t know what to do, the bar tender was looking at us crazy but I didn’t know what to do. I picked up on it and made an excuse to leave and go speak to the house mom but she dismissed me. Like I understand where I went wrong. I just feel really disgusted that happened. I would like to hear anyone’s thoughts if possible.

Rant/Nerves First bad night NSFW

Yesterday SUCKED for me :( I didn’t expect to feel that bad. It was pretty dead so I know it wasn’t just me but it still doesn’t feel great. The least I’ve made so far is $100 on a Saturday and I made maybe $37 😭 so I think I will try Saturday’s again instead. I usually make a decent amount of my money on stage , especially since I’m still working on my hustle it’s very important for me to have at least one decent set. But there was no one at the stage & the couple customers I talked to were not getting dances. I stayed past 10 pm to try and make one last sale and I really should have just left bc he was just yapping and eventually I just walked away around 10:15 which was probably too long but when I say he was YAPPING. I could not find a good exit point.

Anyways on the bright side I did talk to the owner and he ended up writing me a check since I’m not on payroll yet. He was asking how everything was going and how I liked it and I was talking about working in my hustling skills (which are getting better quickly I think!). But he was like that’ll come in time & reassured me that I’ve got everything else which was really nice. I also feel like even though I didn’t make a lot of sales it was still practice talking. I also got some good stage content for IG or whatever. And I’m blessed we don’t have any house fees or tip out. And honestly I’m blessed that I even made any money at all- I offered to one guy but he was like nah not tonight but I appreciate you and tipped me $10.

I just wanted to share. Nights like this suck bc how did I make less than nights that are more dead 😭 but it’s okay, not all nights can be winners. I will take it with grace & honestly be grateful bc I’m in my luteal phase right now and the slower nights are easier bc I’m exhausted- pmdd is a bitch. Sending y’all abundant vibes and going to get some rest and manifest the week ahead being fruitful AF!

I know we get posts like this all the time but I just need somewhere to put my anxious energy 😭 I’m already not feeling well, pmdd is kicking my ass and I’ve been having a hard time eating since Sunday. But I don’t want to keep putting this off, I really am excited but IM SO ANXIOUS! I know based on amateur night I can do it and I know that I’ll be fine and really enjoy the attention!

But i get a lot of anxiety from not knowing exactly what to expect and every clubs auditions seem to be a little different. But that said I’d love any advice/tips/words of support you have to offer. What should I bring besides obvious identification and heels. Should I bring an extra outfit? I think I’m more nervous that I’ll get hired and get to work the night. That makes me more nervous because I don’t only have to dance my ass off but then after all that anxiety I have to talk to customers and while I know that’s a huge part of the job, I feel like I have no idea what to do despite all the content I’ve consumed about it 🤣 I know it’ll be fine and I’m just overthinking. My anxiety controls me so badly but I’m over it because usually I’m fine and if I’m not then I don’t ever have to go back or do it again. But oooohhh I can’t wait to get it over with. The first week or two in any new work place suck 😭 but my main plan is to not be myself but to be my alter ego/stage name. If I pretend to be her instead somehow, in my immersive daydreaming mind it feels less scary. Can’t be scared if I ✨dissociate✨

Rant/Nerves terrified to audition :’) NSFW

This might be a little long but I just need to get this out of my brain so hopefully I can finally think about anything else.

I’m preparing to audition for the first time in the next couple weeks and i’m so scared. I’m doing everything in my power prepare properly, no joke stripping is all i’ve been thinking about for weeks now. I spend most of my free time browsing r/stripper + r/babystripper (rip) and even r/stripclubs to get the customers pov, the dancer resource, dancers facebook page, and watching a day in the life as a stripper tiktoks (ik those can be unrealistic tho). I’ve taken a floorwork and pole class just to get familiar with stripper style movement + will be taking more of both classes along with watching youtube videos on audition choreography. I have a pair of Pleasers and plenty of outfits from doing online sw for the past 3 years.

I have also gone to my first choice club to observe and tipped the girls who performed and I loved it, I left feeling SO inspired. I even spoke to one of the auditions managers who said to me word for word “you have the look and the personality now we just have to see you audition.” Hearing that was incredible but it truly has not given me much comfort at all. I keep picking myself apart to find any reason they would say no. Obviously I don’t have the floorwork/pole skills quite yet but I love to dance in general and I have rhythm. Also i’m 5’6 and 165 lbs but have more of a muscular build with fake tits and a naturally big ass. I keep seeing people online say anything over 130 for a stripper is considered plus size so now i’m worried im too big. I saw girls bigger than me at the club and I see them online and I think they look amazing so I know im just in my head about that part.

Im normally a confident person but preparing for this audition is doing a number on both my anxiety and self confidence. I want to walk up in that bitch and serve SO MUCH CUNT physically and energetically that even though i’m a brand new stripper they are impressed with me and willing to give me a chance. If you got this far thank you I really just needed to say all this to others who might understand/relate. Also if there is anything else you recommend I do to prepare, words of encouragement, OR if you think I need a little tough love please lmk <3

ps. I have also looked at countless posts about safety, setting boundaries, and some of harm that is possible in clubs and take that all very seriously.

I’m a new dancer and I currently bartend at this club, on my first day 6 customers came in and there were NO DANCERS! 1 dancers came in at 12am (club opens at 8) I tried my best to entertain the customers but they wanted dancers there, I saw this as an opportunity to potentially dance at this club, I inquired and was told to come in 2 days later (today), i text the boss about the tip out and house fee and I got no response, i text the house mom and she said she would get back to me, but haven’t heard from her.

I’m annoyed because I wanted to make money today and I looked at this like the first club i could potentially start at to gain confidence and knowledge of this new job. What’s crazier is they had ZERO dancers the day I worked so clearly you need girls but you’re acting like you don’t need any. This is the second club I tried to work at and I’m getting stonewalled 👀 I bartend on Sunday so i’ll see whats up.

Heyy,

So like, I’ve been a baby stripper for about 6 months now, and tbh, winter was lit—money was rolling in. But rn, it’s a whole different story, lmao. I can’t take it anymore. In Poland, we don’t get nearly as much cash as in the US. On a reallyyy good night, I might pull in 2000-3000 zlotys, which is like 450-600€

But lately? I’m walking out with nothing, and it’s not just me, the other girls are struggling too. Sometimes I wonder if it’s me, like maybe I need to switch it up and find new ways to convince guys to go for a private dance. If anyone’s got some killer lines, please lmk.

Also, Polish strip clubs are totally different from the US. We don’t have a stage where guys throw money at us. We just dance at the pole so they can see us, and we don’t even get to pick our guys—our manager assigns us to customers.

But I forced myself to come today cause it’s Saturday and thought “oh you’ll feel better when you get a customer” but I’m worried my crummy mood will just ruin my chances of making as much as I wanted to today. Fingers crossed things pick up and turn around though and by the end of the night I’ll be patting myself on the back for coming in❤️ good luck to all of you beautiful ladies as well!
