Ohhh over here, truck stop food is highly coveted. The prices of food over there are a bit funky. Considering you work on the tip system n all.

Our waiting staff get $16 to $18+ per hour and our prices are very similar....but in most other circumstances our costs are heaps more....the only place I found eating out prices in line was in Hawaii.

You aren't working at a truckstop are you?

A lot of cleavage is encouraged--but you have male coworkers doing the same tasks...
You don't serve food--but you occasionally give away alcohol for free...
You imply that some customers may be in "varying" degrees of clothing--but towels are not involved...
You occasionally handle money and give advice, but not most of the time.
You provide both goods and services, and it is a large enough business to be in the top ten in the industry.


And you claimed that it should be easy to guess what you do?

Cruise Director? (Oh wait, there would be towels there. Ditto for the tanning parlor I guess.)

Did I claim that??

OK OK - regarding the above things..

Its not part of *my* job but we do handle large sums of money.
Cleavage is encouraged, I work with guys and have a *decent rack*, of course its encouraged. There is no respect for sexual harassment laws at my place of employment.

I'll give a whopping clue...shall I?

Someone else here is in the same industry and *part* of my job is their job.

If you use the 6 degrees of separation (alot less though) the industry I work in has been mentioned

You probably wont guess my actual job.

I think ours may be the same as the Australian (Family Fortunes for us btw) but I'd write it as Bwah-BWAAAAAAAH. And although it's electronic it does have seriously mocking undertones.
