Tenn. GOP lawmaker credits Hooters for success

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — A freshman Tennessee legislator credits her success in politics and business to the time she spent working at a restaurant chain known for buxom waitresses in tank tops and short shorts.

...

I have taken quite a bit of flack from the public at large during my run for State House in Tennessee for being a Hooters Girl," she said. "But I know that without that time in my life I would not be as strong-willed and eager to become successful."

The link also became a direct benefit to her electoral bid when former regular customers made campaign contribution "without question or hesitation," she said.

The article appears in the magazine's "Orange Pride Spotlight," which features "the success stories of Hooters Girls both past and present." Much of the rest of the magazine is devoted to full-page photos of women posing in bikinis and Hooters uniforms.

1. Waiting tables is not an easy job under the best of circumstances..

And I don't imagine the meat market at Hooters is anything approaching the best of circumstances.

Pretty good training for politics if you look at it the right way.
