    Angry Hooters Rant !

    ...in a last ditch effort to make some extra cash for school tuition (this was maybe 3 months before i decided on finding my first club) i ventured to the nearest home of the iconic the neon orange shorts and subpar wings...yup went to hooters. So i've been serving for about 2 and half years, ive served everything from up scale food restaurants to packed sports bars. So i come into the downtown hooters in skinny jeans a mustard colored "fitted" v neck sweater and pumps and my winning smile.I have my resume jam packed with every thing from working high end retail to coaching cheerleading and of course the 2 1/2 serving years experience. Im super polite and nice to everyone from the hostess at the front all away to the spot on the wall i swear
    . I sit down with the manager on duty we laugh and chat and he tells me about the job and how exciting it is. I express my thoughts ,ask questions, he let me know that he will give my application to the general manager and they will call me. A week later i called and checked in, one of the girls hung up on me...another on acted like she couldnt speak english....smh, i walked in saw the same manager and he explained that he had no power in hiring he just was the manager on duty .
    What i noticed was there was a certain type of girls that were working there and that type was dumb as a box of rocks! ...this was confirmed when my co worker that had never served in her life got hired as a server... i love her but god gave her DD's and not brains. I let on that i was way too smart, the resume was a dead give away too. Not getting that job was a bit of a shot to my self esteem. I kept thinking was i too tall,am i not skinny enough,is it the boobs. i would look at my friend and almost pick myself apart comparing and i just decided im just too damn smart ... and i was fine with that

    ....fast forward to now and i walk into my first club and owner takes one look at me and says "yes! your hired u'll make so much money, theres something about you...your tall and exotic...u'll do very well here"

    Hooters doesn't really do "tall and exotic". They are all about curves and big boobs. Not getting hired is probably the best thing that could have happened to you!

    Yeah, the only ladies who get hired at Hooters/Twin Peaks down here are the orange girls next door. Consider it a stroke of luck. I'd rather be my own boss and work at a strip club than get scheduled for harassment and have to wear a smile about every night.

    I suppose it really doesn't matter why you weren't hired. Don't focus on it or feel like you need to justify anything. I hope that your club owner is correct and that you make lots of money, good lucka dn have fun!

    I've never worked at Hooter's but I heard it sucks. Guys go in there expecting hot girls and cheap food and beer, so my guess is they disrespect the girls and don't tip well.

    I heard somewhere that they make the girls sign a waiver relinquishing their rights to sue for any sort of sexual harassment from customers.

    Wow, really?^
    Anyway, yeah I'm sorry that happened..there's a few threads on here, from all I've heard, no one's had a good experience working there. I'd think you'd do better working in a sports bar, or you mentioned a club? Good luck hun

    sorry to hear this. I really don't get what the purpose of Hooters really is. Hot busty women serving food? Are you supposed to dance too? I don't get the concept. It's a sports bar right? So hot women serving you beers with big breasts? Is that it?

    thanks everyone i totally see now that that was probably the best choice to not work there, i have heard about the matter of signing over your rights saying that you will not sue for sexual harassment while working there thats crazy! oh and i forgot the fact that they look for girls that have an "all american girl' / "girl next door look" ...wdf does that look like -_________- lol

    I often think about how much it would suck to have hot, scantily clad women serve me beer while i watch a game with my buddies......That idea will never get off the ground.


    but yeah....its pretty much it. I have only been to a couple of them. It never really seems like a sexually charged atmosphere .....just a causual restaurant /sportsbar with very average food, no dancing, they are just normal waitresses, with the exception of the outfits. I have been there with the wife & kids.....

    I dont know anything about the working conditions which sound unacceptable in these cases. But I imagine its like anything other business.....some have good management, some have bad management and some have complete douchebag management.

    Wow! That video is powerful. But only cuz the Manager got caught by someone in his food chain. Most times, we have to suck it up for the paycheck.
    Smoke good, eat good. Drink and f*** good. Comin' to the club, stuntin' how you should. My s*** on fire I don't need no gasolina. I'm comin through the block with the new two seater. Cash rules everything around me -- C.R.E.A.M. -- get the money! Dollar dollar bill, y'all!!! FREEZE!!! You know who it is!!! It's me *****es!!! Showtime!!! -Swizz Beats

    To me it looked like the camera had very clear shots- how did it get hidden? or do you think it was filmed without the MGR intending for the footage to come out (I think I answered my own Q)

    Ha yeah they tell the manager they're filming for something else because he doesn't know that guy is the head of hooters.

    But anyway the fact they didn't hire you is a GOOD thing. After working in a restaurant serving and hostessing it makes me think why anyone would want to serve food and work in a stressful environment all while having to look perfect and hot? I know at the restaurant I work at when it's busy the last thing I worry about is what I look like and those girls have to look 'picture perfect' throughout their whole shift..and on top of that dealing with creepy and disrespectful guys..my sister worked there and hated it. Fuck that!

    Liv, if you're beautiful enough to be hired on the spot at a club and smart enough that you're actually too smart to work somewhere, then I'd say you've got two good reasons to feel confident about yourself!


    Now on to Hooters. I'm a fan and a regular at my local Hooters establishment. I happen to really like their salad, tater tots, seafood platter, and grilled cheese. Other food there is kind of bad, but you get what you pay for. The wings are too small and "un-meaty," but I like their beer selection. I hate that all they have on TV is sports, but if I suggested they flip over to DWTS, I'd get my ass kicked by the other patrons.

    Yes, "that's it." I guess the difference is your "that's it" is my "highlight of the week." In fairness, my weeks are pretty dull, lol. So they're hot, nice to me, remember what kind of beer I drink, and I get to see cleavage. In return I'm polite, try really hard not to stare, and tip 30%.

    I live in the philly area, and about 4 yrs ago i applied at a hooters. I talked to the manager who was really nice. But I got the impression I was not what they wanted. I had on a low cut top, and jeans and heels(im tall though...5'9) and he kinda hinted around that if i got a second interview to dress more sexy(altho not in those words) here i thought I was dressed sexy. Anyway i never heard back.
    But ive been hired at many restaraunts and as cocktail waitresses at strip clubs so hey, their loss.
    Thes ones around me dont hire very busty girls anyway ive noticed. Most are on the flatter side. I was shocked when i went to the interview(my first time ever in a hooters). since then ive been there to eat (yes i love the wings... my bf hates it there, doesnt like the wings or the girls, but again our hooters doesnt seem to employ the cream of the crop)

    HOLY SHIT! That guy was my manager when I worked at Hooters in Dallas! He was a douche back then too..... That job SUCKED! There were always a group of us under age 21 sneaking swigs off a bottle of Tuaca in the dressing room during work. I used to do blow back there too... I finally got fired when I was so fucked up on Xanax I was forgetting orders, acting like a retard, they sent me home. I fell asleep at a red light while driving home and woke up on some stranger's couch, with his mom cooking breakfast in the kitchen. He saw me asleep at the red light, got in my car, parked it for me, and took me back to his house.... wow....

    I became a stripper maybe 1 1/2 years after that, and lo and behold, I see like 10 chicks I used to work with from Hooters working at the strip club!
