R.I. strip club hosting job fair

PROVIDENCE, R.I. — Here's one job opportunity you won't need a new wardrobe for.

Hoping to take advantage of Rhode Island's floundering economy, owners of the Foxy Lady strip club in Providence plan to hold a job fair Saturday. They say they're looking to fill around 30 positions, including strippers and waitresses, at that club and two others in Massachusetts. Co-owner Tom Tsoumas says people are desperate for work, especially in Rhode Island, where the unemployment rate stood at 10.3 percent in January.

He hopes that some who would have shunned strip clubs in a strong economy might now consider shedding their clothes — or at least working as a waitress or bartender. Tsoumas says he expects to collect as many as 150 resumes from "very responsible and competent people."

not proud of it.. but my sis worked as a dancer at a club (have to remain covered top and bottom in NJ unless it is a BYOB place) and then made a LOT of money making and selling costumes

So the strip club economy isn't floundering. It just smells like flounder.

Woody,

So your plan is we should "hang" around the parking lot to see who stops in?

Maybe hold the door open for some ladies?

As long as Great White isn't playing....I'd go.

I have never gone, but I can't quite comprehend the strip club/full-menu restaurant idea. Is it the 2-4-1 truck stop convenience or something? I just can't imagine thinking "Seeing her shake her thighs just makes me so OOH! they have cottage cheese and fruit!"
