    Default okay ya'll?!?!?!

    Hey ya'll! I just want to let ya'll know that I love it here on SW. You all are the best group of people I think I have ever came across. ANYWAY...my thing is I went in to put in an application for a waitress job (kinda wanted to get used to working in the place first) anyway...I don't consider myself to be TOO awful looking, I think I look alright considering I have a little extra weight.....but anyway I walked in the door asked for the app.....then the guy looked at me and said the position had been filled....so sorry he said, I need to take the sign down....which I was okay with until a few days later I saw the same sign up on the same billboard advertising the SAME open positions. I know this might sound crazy but that hurt my feelings a little...If I looked so God awful... couldn't he just tell me so??? I mean. he could of said like...Have you had any experience?? then, I don't think you fit the qualifications or something like that... Anyway, I am sorry...I know this post doesn't make too much since but I just wanted to vent a little. Thank you guys for listening.....

    That is pretty much a standard answer if they're not interested - 'position filled' or 'no more openings right now'. But don't give up! Try another club, they're not all so picky.

    Not to mention, every club is looking for a different kind of girl. Good luck!

    A big part of the industry is that you have to accept that you can't and won't please everyone...this guy obviously did not like your look, but he's one guy. like Bridgette said, try again- you might just get a job at a better place!

    ok, try not to take it to personal. There are tons of reasons he could have done this!!

    dont take it to heart!!
    what does one guys opinion matter anyway?

    maybe he was checking you out when you came in, and when you asked about being a waitress, they had so many pending applications or something....
    ok, so the sign is still up.. maybe he actually doesn't bother taking it down?

    in the business you are in, you have to deal with rejection, BUT DONT think there is something wrong with you OR that it is anything you did wrong.

    his loss.

    I agree with everyone else, Hun. Don't get discouraged. There are TONS of other clubs, and you'll find one. Just keep looking and don't let one club get you down. You may not have fit their ideal, but there's a club out there that you will.

    Keep trying.

    Ditto ...Keep trying until you find the club thats right for you. You can also try going back to that club on a different day/time.

    Thanks you guys, I was beginning to think that I should just give up. All I could think was, if they won't give me a job that doesn't require my taking anything off...imagine the response I would have gotten if I asked for a dancers position. I am trying not to get too discouraged. I will just keep trying and like Tampa said....thier loss!! lol Thanks so0o0o much

    I have to ask, how were you dressed at the time? Too formal and he may have thought you werent serious, too casual and he may have thought you werent seriously interested in anything but a fast cash gig.

    It is also important to remember that there is a really high turnover in this industry. While that is typical SC-Speak, it is also possible that the girl they hired immediately didn't work out , or she may flaked on her first shift altogether. The other possiblities mentione are all valid too - they never did take the sign down, etc. For all we know, you may look just like his ex-gf, and he didn't want the reminder.

    There are just too many possibilities to take one "no" personally.
