There's a great many who might consider being a pole-dancer very akin to being an airline pilot ( be that at RyanAir or others ), e.g..
- The working hours tend to be anti-social.
- It takes a fair amount of training, skill & dexterity to consistently pull-off a good performance.
- Being a good looker ( esp. with big jugs and / or long legs ) can help you get a job.
- Many of the customers are complete tossers ( in every sense of the word ).
- The management are continually trying to screw you.
- You keep dancing around the pole in the hope that something better will come along soon ( but it rarely does ); and,
- The money is quite good.
Of course the really big difference is that pole-dancers don’t have to prostitute themselves as much as pilots do.
