Often, the guys I work with (DJs, bouncers, managers, etc.) ask me, "So...what do you think about when you're doing a dance ( Read more... )

I love this!!

How often do you get customers who think you're leering at them and thinking dirty thoughts about what you'd like to do to them? (they wish!)

LOL - I admire the hell out of your patience in dealing with people like that! I don't know why men are so goddamn stupid sometimes; a woman who dances as part of her job isn't doing it just so she can ogle the "hotties" who come to watch her!

It's not a terrible job at all-sure, I get my fair share of crazies, but overall I get a lot of nice guys and lonely old men ^^ And to be fair, the women are just as bad (if not worse) than the men sometimes.

I understand that you guys are uberbuff, even if it doesn't show and that there are numerous bouncers/DJs/kind understanding folk around, but do you take, have taken or ever think about taking self defence classes?

Nope. I've considered taking kickboxing, but for the aerobic value and not the self-defense value. All I need to know about self-defense is self-learned ^^

I know this is a question you must get a lot, but I'm trying to think ahead.

One of my girlfriends is getting married in May and I want to do something special for a bachelorette party. You make what you do sound kinda fun, so here's the question I ask you:

If I were to take my friends out to a bar like yours, what would be a nice tip to give, on average?

For a stage set, a few bucks is fine ^^ Dances have set prices, but the dancers always appreciate any tip on top of that (since the dancer doesn't get the full dance money amount most of the time).

I just hope you aren't the type to exclaim random things that pop into your head. For instance, during a 4-minute dance when you are thinking about your shopping list, you don't yell out "Crap I forgot eggs!!!"

I tend to do a quick calculation in my head of number of customers x 2 (the usual tip for a stage set). I take that total, and that's my estimated take for that particular set. I add that to what I know I already have (let's say the estimate is $40, and the previous amount is $80, giving me $120 by the time I'm done my round).

See this is why I can never do your job. I'm one one of those can't walk and chew gum types. I would fall flat on my face. But watching and cheering and tipping I can do easy.

(oh and hee! I found out that the guys around the base call the stip clubs "The Ballet" how cute is that? Widdle army guys trying to sound cultured and everything!)

When I was in the USAF, we were blunt and honest.

"Bored now."
"Strip Joint?"
"Lets go!"

LOL. Alot of the guys call it that because a: they are way to concerned with PC and b: they want the women nearby hearing it thinking they are cultured.

I prefer my husband to be blunt and say "Hey Hun, I'm heading over to the strip joint for a bit with the boys!"

My wife demands a full report.

Types, dancing skills, fun level, and of course the most important....
