The girls I’ve seen tend to go clockwise, but they are working a crowd, and sometimes it changes by who they have their attention focused on. Maintaining eye contact sometimes affects the direction they approach the pole.
In my cabbie days, I picked up a lot of drunks from skin joints, and they never waited for me outside. I was stunned walking into a small, tumble down joint and there was a beautiful, young blonde working the crowd. Her appearance was the least startling, as she really had some talent. She was not scrawny and bones. There was a lot of curve to her.
I guess the bartender told her I commented, because the next time I came in she gave me a little wave.
It was cool that she did because I started getting calls from there a lot.
