Next month will make 4 years since I joined and started using the GetUpside app and the total I've gotten back as of today is $640.79. I love this little app and use it every chance I get... but, that being said, right now it's not paying off the greatest.
It definitely fluctuates, but it's free, easy money that I get back on something I'm spending money on all the time anyway. I cash it out every December and use it for Christmas shopping. I just transfer the money to PayPal but they'll cut a check, put it on gift cards, and I think they might have the option to deposit it directly into a bank account at this point.
I also have a few referrals that use it pretty steadily and I get money whenever they do. If anyone here is interested, you can use my referral code and get 20 cents per gallon back the first time you use it:

I really love the outpouring of support here! These guys that are suggesting pro help are absolutely right and there's no shame in doing so.
Also, just to chime in on the inattentive dancer... chances are that she just felt that the juice wasn't worth the squeeze. Sounds like you were quite handsy and she asked what she could do to earn a tip. You don't say how much she got, but she probably didn't think it was enough for the level of service she provided. At least, not on a busy night with the potential for more...π€·πΌββοΈ
Not worth giving space in your head though,I can

@gob Well, since I can't pay my bills in beads, I'm grateful for every one of those singles they give me! π
And I'm pretty sure these tig ol bitties have collected enough duckets to pay for themselves several times over through the years...π
I wish I would've had 'em when I was younger... Mardi Gras definitely would've been on my list of places to show em off back then!

At the risk of sounding very true to the state I work in, I'm not a huge fan of store bought, but I happen to know someone who makes homemade venison jerky that is absolutely to die for and now it's the only kind I'll eat! π¦ (Which means I'm not eating much at all because it only comes around once in a blue moon...π€·πΌββοΈ)

shailynnThey never tell you what you need to know.
Having long ago been bitten by the travel bug, I don't think there's anywhere I wouldn't go, under the right circumstances or with the right company.
(And, even with all the travel I've done, I haven't been to a fraction of the places I'd like to.)
Obviously, the exceptions to that are areas where there is active fire or war- torn remnants. π€·πΌββοΈ

~~~γDoes anyone remember Hooters Air?
A dancer at Industrial Strip in Hammond, Indiana says she was a flight attendant until they went bust.
I worked at this club back in the day and I would say it's highly likely that she did fly for Hooters because I had a similar opportunity.
I flew for a company called Ryan International (not the same as Ryan Air) which was a charter company. We only flew to Mexico and the Caribbean for Apple Vacations, but when the contract ended, we had the option to apply to be on charter flights for sports teams in the area. I didn't apply, but I think they may have flown out of the same airport if memory serves...
Wow, just writing about this really makes me miss that job!! π

I β€οΈ my boots!!! And, I always shave my legs... partly because I always take em off in private dances (unless someone has a boot fetish, which no one has yet!) π€·πΌββοΈ
What the boots are great for though, are supporting my ankles and protecting my knees on stage. I'm so comfortable in them that when I wear my shoes (which is rare) I have much less range of movement.
The thing I've learned about shoes, is basically what Cashman said, that most guys don't see them as fashion... just function. Therefore, I've spent as little as possible on them and wear em til they're worn out.
Which reminds me... it's time to do a little boot shopping!
(Also, I refuse to buy Pleasers or other over priced "stripper" boots... there are plenty of sexy ones to be found on "regular" sites.)πππ

First of all guys- practice makes perfect! Are you really gonna complain that she's sliding her hand up and down that pole, even if there is a scrap of cloth between?π€·πΌββοΈ
And also, I've always cleaned the pole (I've often even joked to the guys at stage that I could be a professional pole polisher by now π€ͺ)- waaaaay before Covid. Not because of germs...because of grease/ gunk! (I know, sexy right?)
Which comes in the form of the oil or lotion the girl before me might've used, natural body oils or sweat, or even grip spray/cream that some of the more advanced pole tricksters use.
So, no, that many-times-used rag isn't gonna remove the germs (which, let's face it, are probably far more prevalent on all that money anyway), but it will degrease the pole enough that I don't have to worry about flying off of it mid-spin. You realize there's no workman's comp in this industry, right? πππ

~~~γIt's the reality. You don't think a business needs rules or that clubs aren't calculated? Or that a dancer can make a bag without a strategy? Lmfao
The industry exists to provide indulgence in fantasy, not logic. Also, my point is that from your side of the pole, it may seem logical. But, you're on the side of indulgence. It's a very different perspective. But, you just enjoy your ignorance of any other perspective but your own.

@lurking- it was such a pleasure to finally meet you! Glad you could put aside your lurking ways for a bit and join me in the sunshine!
Thank you so much for your kind words and well-expressed thoughts! I could never afford this kind of press!! π
My name is Summer and I approve this message!! π€ͺ
Can't wait to see you again next time! π
You too Doc! And this time, I'll have my stocking at the ready!! π
For the rest of you, I sure wish I could satisfy my wanderlust and pay visits but all I can do is extend invitations to enjoy a WV summer if you ever get the chance...πππ

My club shut down for an entire year, but was fortunate enough to reopen. While it was closed, it got a shiny, new face-lift and of course, there have been staffing and price changes. These things would've happened anyway but more gradually.
So, as one would imagine, I've had lots of conversations regarding the before and after times. It boils down to being mostly just observational- not really good or bad. But, I would say that if you don't notice a difference at all wherever you are, that's probably a great/lucky thing!

I'm curious if said strippers are giving this advice out unsolicited...
I was recently an unwitting eavesdropper (my proximity and her volume meant I had no choice) to a baby stripper's conversation at the bar. It wasn't terrible... but definitely awkward. (And, we've all been there as baby strippers!)
But, it didn't cross my mind to try to offer her advice that she didn't ask for.
I want all the girls at my club to succeed, but I don't presume to have all the answers and what works for one girl may not work for the next.
I'd also be extremely wary of dancers who take it upon themselves to dole out advice... the purpose of it may not be to help the one receiving it. π€·πΌββοΈ
(I realize this is kinda stating the obvious but felt like it needed to be said anyway...)
