A stripper writes about dancing in Williston, North Dakota.

My favorite line: "There's Diablo Cody winning an Oscar, and here I am in Williston, 31 years old and shaking my ass for guys with dollar bills in their mouths. What the fuck am I doing with my life?"

    I'm digging the read. Paying for services in gift cards...that takes the cake. What's next? Household chores for lap dances.?

    Thanks for the post. Interesting that she can write so well but still repeats herself like any other stripper.

    Well done. Her writing style does remind me of Diablo Cody.

    Interesting article. One of my faves spent a week in Williston in 2011. She said it was fun and she made good money there.

    Sounds like the local Walmart needs to offer housing and higher pay for workers. Then of course charge a fortune for everything on the store shelves or whatever the market dictates. If Walmart can't do it, it seems like someone could make a good profit doing it if the workers most crave a place to buy things. I'm surprised no one has figured out a way or maybe it has limited profit potential only serving boom towns.

    The dancer I talked to said she left more broke than when she arrived. Plus it was a two day trip just one way to get there by car. I guess she didn't do any after hours work.
