Strip Club Recruits Recent Grads
'Class Of 2010' Sign Drawing Mixed Reactions
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- A gentleman's club is taking some heat over a recruiting campaign that targets recent graduates, Jacksonville TV station WJXT reported.
The sign outside the Centerfold Lounge reads "Now hiring the graduating class of 2010."
Some people think the club should take it down, saying it lowers the bar for young people.
"I think it's terrible. I mean really, young people could do a lot better than that," nearby business owner Rose Chirkovich said.
Recent high school graduate Meghan Russell, 18, called the sign "pretty disgusting."
The job posting is club manager William Warner's brainchild. And although he finds it funny, he said it's no joke.
"I mean, look at the economy. We have nothing to offer these grads," Warner said. "I do. I have what they can make money. Yes, we're looked at as scum of the Earth, but it's a paycheck -- money that will put food in their stomach and keep a roof over their head."
