Major change in Dancer lineups

I see this sinking a lot of clubs, especially the ones already just treading water.

It sucks the club closed during the same day I was ready to finally go back. Bad timing, but cie la vie. Not being a travel hobo at the moment bums me out and I'm filling out job applications right now.

(On a side note, why the heck would a job application have you list your employment history, and then on another section, have you list it again. WTF?)

I'll have to take this time to reflect and look into the diverse (and computer based) ways to make money out there. I'm overdue to having another source of income rather than just the club.

I'll be following updates about this thing before deciding to be a travel hobo again. (I really want to though, I wasn't really ready to quit. :/ ) If there's high risk of mutations and the like, even if the clubs open, then I'll probably just be dancing as a 1-2x per week thing and mostly focused on something else. God forbid if I have to do something like try to make use out of my bachelors degree.

There already is going to be a flood of girls going to onlyfans, reddit forums for selling pics/videos/panties and cam sites.

Not saying it's a bad idea to pursue these types of things - just saying there are titans of industry that have years of experience on their side already in this hustle. So you'll have to bring something new, likely.

"There already is going to be a flood of girls going to onlyfans, reddit forums for selling pics/videos/panties and cam sites."

They already at and it's annoying as fuck. I keep seeing the same stupid mundane questions being asked in the Facebook groups.

@Wiffle Waffle - Do girls actually make any money from only fans? I’m old school so I’d rather spend my money on face to face interactions. With the over-abundance of “models” I just can’t see it being lucrative except for a very small select few.

While there are a lot of people who have been laid off or unable to work during the pandemic, I've seen a few opportunities pop up. Amazon is paying an extra $2 per hour temporarily to keep its distribution going with people buying up all kinds of supplies. The local grocery store chain is asking for several thousand employees immediately to be stockers, checkout workers, and cleaners due to the way grocery stores are being ransacked daily right now. They can't get the products on the shelves quick enough. These would be good temporary jobs for healthier young people.

Once the pandemic is over, I think we will have a net loss of dancers do to them finding other avenues of work or realizing stripping is a job and not a career path. Some clubs will also fall victim and close. Before the pandemic even started there were clubs just barely hanging on paying their bills month to month. It really amazes me as I travel around the country that there are clubs out there with only a few dancers and a few customers on Friday and Saturday nights at peak time. With several months of bills and no way to pay them, they may just opt to close instead of ask a bank for a loan. This virus may cull the weak and old among humans and the weak and boring among strip clubs.

IDK - if dancers struggle financially thru this, I think they will come back in droves to make up for lost revenue; i.e. I would think they'd be pretty-thir$ty - perhaps if it goes on for a good while (6-months+) of clubs closed or minimal-contact even if they open, then perhaps many may move-on from dancing.

I'm happy that I've a decent amount saved to where I can survive a month without dancing. What I'm going to suffer through is the lack of... well... something to do. As someone that's recently made a hobby out of traveling, this whole situation currently blows.

Any and all involvement with me in the entertainment/adult industry has always been face to face and seldom online for business, and I'd like to keep it that way once things return to the way they are. In the meantime, I've been exploring temp job opportunities and accepting OTC with regulars after verifying they're not sick.
