Could I be a Hooters Girl?
Previous Entry :: Next Entry

Read/Post Comments (0)

This year, Hooters restaurant chain is 25 years old. Huzzah! Who thought it could happen?

What would it be like to be a Hooters girl? Well, I checked the website, and it looks really easy, and fun, too.

Here's what it takes.

Hooters Girl (females only need apply for position of Hooters Girl)

You must be at least 17 years old for hourly employment opportunities with Hooters of America, Inc. and at least 18 or 21 for the Hooters Girl position depending on local alcohol service laws.

The Hooters Girl uniform consists of: White Hooters tank top, orange shorts, suntan hose, white socks, solid white shoes, brown Hooters pouch, name-tag and of course...a smile! The Hooters Girl uniform can not be changed or altered in any way. As well, the Hooters Girl uniform can not be sold to the public for any reason.

There is no set requirement in order to be a nearly World Famous Hooters Girl! We look for the All-American Cheerleader / Surfer-Girl-Next-Door image to fill our restaurants. In other words...Very bubbly, outgoing personalities!

The element of female sex appeal is prevalent in the restaurants, and the company believes the Hooters Girl is as socially acceptable as a Dallas Cowboy cheerleader, Sports Illustrated swimsuit model, or a Radio City Rockette. The Hooters system employs over 25,000 people - over 15,000 of which are Hooters Girls. The "nearly world famous" Hooters Girls are the cornerstone of the Hooters concept, and as part of their job, these all-American cheerleaders make promotional and charitable appearances in their respective communities. Hooters hires women who best fit the image of a Hooters Girl to work in this capacity. The chain hires both males and females to work in management and host, staff, service bar, and kitchen positions. The Hooters Girl uniform consists of orange shorts and a white tank top, short-sleeve or long-sleeve T-shirt. Pantyhose and bras are required.

Claims that Hooters exploits attractive women are as ridiculous as saying the NFL exploits men who are big and fast. Hooters Girls have the same right to use their natural female sex appeal to earn a living as do super models Cindy Crawford and Naomi Campbell. To Hooters, the women’s rights movement is important because it guarantees women have the right to choose their own careers, be it a Supreme Court Justice or Hooters Girl.


Can they really deny employment to someone like me, who is not particularly cheerleaderish or surferish? I have bodacious ta-tas (ask the male readers Bernie and Cajun, they'll vet the fun bags), a great smile, a bubbly personality, and I fit the "no set requirement" part pretty well.

If they wouldn't hire me, could I sue them for being phallocentric turdheads?

Makes me wonder. Or maybe I'm just feeling 42-ish.
