Private Sessions With Rivaille

by ChangTheNerd14

It all started off as a favour for a friend, but he did not expect it to become something more. Levi Ackerman is a college student by day and a stripper at night. That is until his best friend asks him to do his sister a favour that might pay him more than what he earns at his current job.

1. Orientation

One thing I've learned from being a stripper for nine years is that is ain't easy money, especially when you're a male stripper. We aren't really in high demand as compared to female strippers and we only ever make about three hundred to four hundred dollars a night. Stripping at clubs is costly too – you'll have to pay about 30% of your earnings just to perform and use their space. So you're better off having some other jobs on the side to earn extra cash to get you by.

Another thing is that if you want the strip business to work in your favour, you'll have to be the full package. Being able to dance and twirl around the pole is one thing, but it shouldn't be the only thing you're good at no matter how skilled you are.

Obviously, you need the looks to catch the eyes of potential clients. If you're one of those who don't go to the gym often – yeah you better start going there frequently because there is no way any club is going to hire anyone with an unfit and unattractive body.

Above all, personality is very important if you want to keep your clients invested – that means you need to be very social and should put yourself out there whether you like it or not. Sorry, introverts. You better start working on your social skills and start talking to people if you really want to secure the bag.

Be prepared to have other strippers snatch your clients – that happens very often on a nightly basis. But it would do you good to befriend your fellow strippers instead of competing with them – they might help you get clients that may be interested in what you have to offer.

And before I forget, there is one crucial thing which is basically the golden rule in the strippers' handbook: You do not sleep with your client under any circumstances.

Yes, our line of work may look like a solid and easier way to enter into hook-up territory and on many occasions, clients may mistake our attention for affection or are actively looking for a relationship with us. But I will tell you this right here and right now; we are here to give our clients a service that they are paying for. Not to get their numbers or get into their pants. Professionalism is highly advised.

And I'm pretty sure I broke that rule the moment I got into a very compromisingly intimate yet unprofessional situationship with a client, who happens to be my boss and my best friend's sister.
