Applied at the Strip Club. They say they will call me back?
I just went in Club Risque located in Philadelphia. The bouncers told me I need to be 21 to serve alcohol as a cocktail waitress. I will be turning 21 this April. I asked if a manager was working today and they told him to come out. The manager gave me an application for me to fill it out. After that..he said he'll call me back? Does that means NO?
Re: Applied at the Strip Club. They say they will call me back?
That would be a no. Strip club or any other employer if they say the will call, it means they will not call. Go to another club audition there. Keep auditioning until you get hired. Shoot, audition at Club Risque again, a different manager may have a different answer. Or, the same manager might have a different answer.

I don't understand it. I'm not ugly or anything. Why won't they hire me? I'm only applying as a cocktail waitress. Not a dancer.
Re: Applied at the Strip Club. They say they will call me back?
They're not going to promise anything, or even commit to calling you back, because you're not 21 for another 3 months. By then, tons of girls will have come in and applied to cocktail there, and so they don't even know if they'll need any cocktail servers in April. It's way too far ahead for them to even bother looking at you, given that they likely have girls applying almost every day. There's not much you can really do except wait until you're 21 - the laws are the same throughout Philly so going to other clubs won't be much different.
Was it Risque on Delaware Ave? I've heard the other one is not a great place to work at all

Exactly. If you have to be 21 then you have to WAIT until you turn 21 to apply. Why would a huge club want a lawsuit for one cocktail waitress when there are dozens that probably apply daily that are LEGAL. It had nothing to do with the way you looked! Luckily you only have a few more weeks and like another poster said...reapply when your legal. It may be a whole different story then. Good luck.

Yup I've been there, it's pretty nice and it's on the "strip" where most of the other big clubs in Philly are too. It's pretty nice but the other Risque is really shady. If they tell you they don't have positions available but offer to send you to their sister clubs, don't do it - there's a reason they can't get girls to work at the other clubs. Just go to one of the other clubs nearby instead.
Re: Applied at the Strip Club. They say they will call me back?
The only club nearby is Show n tel. Which i heard is pretty dirty. Right now, all I want to do is be a cocktail waitress. Guess i'll have to wait until I turn 21! Maybe later I will be a dancer. They didn't tell me to go to the other club..they just said they'll keep my application on file. The bouncers said I should dance cause cocktail waitress is for 21+. Are you in Philly as well? What club you work at?
