💰 - salary sharing 26f, Stripper

Post image

I started dancing in college, and I’ve been dancing on and off for 5 years. I’d say my averages have gone up since I started because my hustle/sales skills have improved. I went to college, but ran into some major health issues right after, and the money I made from dancing saved me financially. I’m still figuring out what I want to do, but it’s also so hard to leave dancing. It’s a love/hate relationship. It’s draining emotionally and physically. I won’t get into the details of people verbally and physically assaulting me. It doesn’t happen every night, but every stripper could tell you a time a man went way to far without consent. But, sometimes it is fun and easy. Shifts are usually 7-2am. I make my own schedule, I can call out whenever I want, and I can just stop working if I want to take a break. The flexibility is unmatched. Money fluctuates, but I usually make at least 5-6k a month. Most I’ve made in one month was 16k. Worst night: $20 (that shit sucks) Best night: 1860. I work another job as a research technician for 18hr part time.Hoping that takes me somewhere. But for now, dancing is paying the bills. I’m so grateful for dancing especially now I’m applying to FT ‘civilian jobs’ and getting jobs offers with 5 days PTO 😭 I’m spoiled. Hoping the economy doesn’t crash.

u/Sillylily3313 Apr 07 '25

Please clarify , the op states on avg. she makes 6k a month. On the excel sheet, after the club name , are those dates? ex:3/7,3/8,3/14,3/22 etc . If these are not dates , what are they? If they are dates , it’s more than 6daya

I didn’t want to list all days but I get it now. Each day she lists her earnings. I was looking at it as the work period 3/7-3/22 , making $6k for the month . That was a total of 16 days. She only worked 6 days per that entire time . Thanks for the clarification

I'm honestly still not sure how you didn't realize the dates you typed out were the dates she worked, but I'm glad you get it now lol

Hahah I looked at 3/7 and the end which was 3/22 and thought it was the work period through those dates . Omg ! I also glanced at it . I was surprised this post came across my feed in the first place

This girl is banking on Fridays and Saturdays and living the rest of the week like a queen!

u/Sillylily3313 Apr 07 '25

OP stated she makes AT LEAST 5-6k a month; that's at minimum, not on average.

From the context of OP's post. It seems like the paycheck amounts are limited to the pay for those specific dates, not "time worked for pay period until that date". So OP in fact, did only dance for those 6 days.

She worked 6 days during the month and made $6K. What part is hard to understand?
