First Day Working as a Stripper

Dancinggal
After frequenting strip clubs, seeing the beautiful girls (and some not so beautiful), and spending a decent amount of money on lap dances, I began to wonder what it was like. What it was like to go home with in just one day what I usually make in two weeks. Or even more. It wasn't really a simple decision, I had thought about it, read about it.

I gave it about 6 months of telling myself I wanted to try it before I actually did. So once I had decided to try it, I took to the internet to find out which club I wanted to work at and how I would go about being hired. I flooded my brain with all the information I could possibly know about how to start off. So once I had assembled my stripper kit (makeup, some basic lingerie, baby wipes, mints, etc) I headed for the club I decided to audition at.

I was wearing a tight black tank top, some super short shorts, had my hair and makeup done accordingly. Once I arrived at the club, I asked to fill out an application. It basically looked like a sign up sheet you got for a high school club. It didn't look professional whatsoever. It was typed up on Word and asked basic information. My real name, my stage name, my phone number, if I had experience. I think that was about it. I had my social security card and ID but they didn't end up needed either of those the first day. I filled out the sheet and then the manager came out of the club and took me to the side and casually talked with me about my tattoo on my shoulder (a really detailed rose that I am very proud of ) for a minute or two. He asked me if I had ever danced before, which was a no. It was a very casual conversation. After less than 5 minutes, he told me I was hired and to come back the next day to fill out paper work and start my first shift. Weird, but it really happened this way, I swear to you. So that's how I got hired.

The next day I came back around 5pm and I was taken to the back, told to change, and come into the office to fill out paper work. I was a little uncomfortable getting naked at first but then realized I'd be doing this a lot, so shrugged it off. They explained the percentages they took, how much the dances cost then sent me down stairs to check out the club. As I was wandering around like Bambi (in my civilian heels, mind you) they called my name for me to dance on stage. What?! I had been here not even a half hour. So I told the DJ some songs (which were way different than what most of the girls were dancing to), and stumbled up on stage. I did my best to be sexy. I got tipped about $10 in ones. Some guy asked me for a dance so I stumbled to the bouncer to ask him where I should go. I collected $20 from the guy then took him to the private rooms to attempt to give him what I thought would be the most awkward lap dance in the history of ever. He seemed to like it and tipped me $5.

For the rest of the night I kinda just walked around and watched everything everyone else was doing. I didn't try to hustle, nothing like that. I just watched. Observed. A couple guys took me for lap dances. They approached me though, not the other way around. They typically offered during the two for one specials. I didn't spend more than five minutes in the dressing room but the girls were polite and sweet to me. One offered me drugs, which I declined. At the end of the night I went home with $80. It was an interesting day, to say the least.

Just think how it'll be when you learn to hustle all the PLs. :)

Was it overall a positive, negative or neutral for you?

I have a question.

Who do you practice on to learn how to get better at giving lap dances? The other dancers? ;)

Are you looking to make dancing a career or you just wanted to see what it was like?

BTW – the fact that you got hired right away makes me think you are a pretty good looking babe - post some pics of you for us PLs

@DG-Thanks for sharing. Lots of folk wouldn't be as open. Keep it up.

Pictures would be nice as long as you hide your face and tattoos.

No I don't practice on the other dancers, haha. I practice on customers. It was a positive experience for me and yes I plan on making a career of it for a little while.
Thank you, I consider myself decent looking, perhaps a little more. But I'd prefer not to post pictures of myself on here. If someone would like to visit me at work, that'd be a different story. And you're welcome for the share. :) did you get my pm ,Slick?

DG - I look forward to reading more dispatches from your working life. It would be a kick to put you in the sketchbook with your permission, but unless I'm lucky you're probably dancing in a different state. (I'm in TX)

Interesting article. Do you dance around LA? Next time I'm in California I'll PM you and find out where you're dancing.

It's always interesting to see the dancers point of view. Often times I'll sit with dancers and they'll tell me reasoning behind who and who they don't approach for dances. The stories and psychological mindfuck they must have to deal with on a daily basis I totally give them props for.

Great post DG.

Reminded me of a couple experiences I had in Phoenix and Tucson. I was in a fairly new club on Van Buren and business was slow. A young girl came by the table and asked if she could sit with me. She sat in the other chair we we talked a bit and said she had just started that day. After a while I asked her for a dance. A couple songs and a bit awkward for her and we started talking again and I asked her what she thought about her first night at the club and she said she had just graduated from high school and really liked it. She said the best part was getting to wear pretty clothes. I guess the club owner had someone bring in racks of stripper clothes.

The other in Tucson at the Candy Store was interesting. I was approached by two girls. One of whom I had seen sitting for a while in front of the DJ booth watching. One asked if I would take them to VIP so she could teach her friend how to give private dances. Well, sure! So, I became the traing ground. After a few dances, - paying for one dancer not two - the newbie excused her self and the pro proceeded to give me a really good VIP... That was back in the day...
