After quite the day at work, with Jasmine, Dwayne, and the two other girls Aleah and Gabriella all flirting with me. To be honest them bitches probably thought I was doing it back, but I just got a warm and outgoing personality that make people think I like them when in reality I just be vibing with they energy. But we got a lot done, and a lot of shipments, Dwayne wanted to hang but I'd have to see when my available times where after I hopefully got this job. It was finally time to audition, I'd been practicing since they made us do a lap dance and pole dance there.

"Welcome Mrs.Almanzar, you are 7th to go, when we call your name please enter and immediately do your audition, pretend like we are not here, your lap dance subject will be in him chair" they told me once I signed in and turned in my paperwork.

I waited in the waiting room as I saw every girl go in and come back out, I wasn't worried, it didn't look like I had much competition. Half of the girls looked like they didn't even know what they were doing and we're just there for the fuck of it.

"Number 6 please step in" they said as I began to get nervous knowing I was next

"No Cardi, no bad Bronx bitch gets nervous, you got the body and the moves you're gonna kill that shit" I told myself as I felt my hands begin to sweat.

"Number 7, you're up next" they said as I got up and followed them into the room

I began to do pole dance first as instructed and when they gave me the green light signal for finishing that up I headed over to the man sitting in the chair to do the lap dance. When I was done they gave me a paper with my score and asked me to step back into the waiting room.

"10" I said outloud confused at what the number was for as I sat down

"Yeah you're definitely getting the job" the girl sitting next to me said

"What?" I said

"You got a 10, a perfect score" she said with a reassuring smile

"Damn that's brazy, I was just being myself" I said

"I can tell you're a party girl, you gonna do good" she said eyeing me halfway before looking back up once I began to speak

"You got experience with this stuff?" I asked her

"Yeah I just moved from Long Beach so I'm trying to get the job here" she said

"That's dope, you like this job?" I asked her

"Yeah, it's simple way to get you some money" she said

"You right" I simply said patiently waiting for them to finish, there were 16 girls.

"I'm Mariana by the way" she said

"My name is Belcalis but you can call me Cardi" I told her

"Where'd you get that stage name from? You been a stripper before?" She asked

"Nah this my first time, my family like to call me Bacardi, like the drink, but to keep it more PG for my younger fam, I say Cardi" I told her

"That's a creative name, you have your stripper name chosen yet?" She asked me

"Yeah, Cardi B" I said

"That's gota nice catch" she said

"What's yours?" I asked in curiosity

"Marzie" she said

"How that name come about?" I asked her

"My last name is Zandie and my friends call me Mariana Z, and I thought just join them together: Marzie" she said

"That's a simple name but original" I said

"Yeah" she said softly giggling

"Alright ladies, here is what we're gonna do, if you have a score of 6 or lower we need you to go back home, this ain't for you" he said

"What'd you get" I asked her

"An 8.5" she said as I nodded

"If you have a 7 you'll need to come back in a week to try again, anyone 8 or higher, welcome to the team" he said as only me and 3 other girls seemed to make it.

"You'll all be starting tomorrow, your schedules will be given to you depending on your work and information you filled out when you walked in, please walk to the first desk and collect them if you got a 8 or higher" he said again as me and Mariana got up

"Sick, I got 9pm-3am, that's a whole free hour" i said knowing the usual work time is 8 hours.

"What'd you get?" I asked Mariana

"I got 10pm-4am, around the same time as you" she said

"That's mas fire, what are your days off?" I asked her

"Sunday's and Thursday's" she said

"And you?" She said again

"I got Monday and Wednesday" I said

"You gonna be making that bank" she said

"Hopefully, I'm ready to spend a rack already" I said laughing

"Trust me, with your looks and moves, since you got a 10, you're gonna get more than a rack each day" she said which made me happy

"Let's hope for the best" I said

"You hungry?" She asked me

"A bit haven't ate since my break at work" I told her

"You down to go across the street to Tams?" She asked me

"What's Tams?" I asked

"You never been there?" She asked me

"I ain't from here, I'm from New York" I told her

"That explains, they're good burgers, and don't worry, I got you" she said smiling

"That's a bet" I said as we walked out after being told we could

We walked across the street and talked for a while, before she cut off the time we had, this girl a straight goodass friend I was glad to have met here cause I'd be walking around with no friends, and the fact we'd work together too.. she gave me her number and dropped me off at home, she explained how she had to get back to her boyfriend because he'd been having a cold for 2 days, I didn't work tomorrow so I wouldn't see her but I wished her good luck on her first day and she thanked me.
