Two Weeks In...and the Fun Continues


It's been two weeks since I had my first shift as a Hooters Girl and I'm still loving it! I'm starting to think I have way too much fun. But so be it. What can I say...I really think that dressing up in a little outfit that some would consider ridiculous but I consider rather cute, if not hot, pretty fun! It also doesn't hurt that a large part of my job consists of taking photos with customers, singing and dancing around, and signing calendars, shirts, and caps!

Now, I don't want to give anyone the wrong impression. While working at Hooters is oftentimes a very fun experience, it can also be tough, such as on days on which what seems like thousand of people come in on right after the other. I do take my job seriously, and I want to give every customer I come in contact with the most Hooterific experience possible. That means going out of my way and making sure everything is done 100% right. It also means putting on a smile even when I'm having the worst of days and maintaining a certain level of calm and friendliness even when dealing with the worst, most obnoxious customers. And trust me...that can be very hard!

For the most part, the customers all great. But of course there is the occasional asshole who thinks he can say/do whatever he feels like doing simply because I'm showing cleavage, and wants to overstep his boundaries. What a pain in the ass! Then there's also the bitchy Hooters Girl who takes out her frustrations on the rest of us rather than on the people who deserve to get her sharp, sarcastic comments. Everyone has a bad day, and I don't expect anyone to be 100% nice 100% of the time. So what am I complaining about?? The fact that she does it all the time!! For this reason, I shall call her the Blonde Bitch! Ha! Trust me, I'm not just being overly sensitive; all the other girls complain about her too. Honestly, I think we're all ready to strangle her!

But overall, and thankfully, being a Hooters Girl is working pretty nicely for me! :D
