Story

Are there any male bartenders out there tired of sexual
discrimination and photo only ads being posted by craigslist. We
all know that a bar only interested in hiring a woman, will. But
the blatant perpetuation of this discrimination based on gender
is intolerable and increasingly taken to new levels.IE, Photos
only considered, model types, head shots etc.. My experience has
shown that these establishments have no problem attracting male
clientel. But too many places think that an attractive but
terrible "hot" female will increase business. What they really
need to know is a good male bartender will attract many more
female customers. What female guest wants the bartender to
attract all the attention in the bar? We have scores and hooters
for that. Something should be done! Picket? Attract the
media to this situation? suggestions? Posted by a bartender

Go work for Hospitality Holding's (Campbell Apartment, Carnegie
Club, Bookmarks) because they won't hire FEMALE bartenders only
MALE. The ladies get the luxury of running up and down the stairs
in heels thank you very much. Yes what is being done is wrong
and sexist but women still get shafted most of the time and
remember that even though they may want women we still have to
submit "headshots" or "comp cards" to prove how hot we are.
Sexism is wrong no matter which way it goes and it sucks for us
too! However, best of luck and you might want to try more of
those "old school" types of bars where they like male bartenders.
