Maia Marie, 23 years old, had previously shared that she earned an impressive $450 in tips in just half a shift. This time, the young woman returned to TikTok to admit the downsides of her job.
In a viral video that has already accumulated over 2.8 million views, the waitress shared three “cons” of being a Hooters girl. Among them, she mentioned male attention.
“I always knew men were strange, but when I started working at Hooters, it unlocked a whole new level,” Marie confessed.
“I’m not saying all men are bad, mine isn’t, I love him. Some men really enjoy making you uncomfortable without even realizing what they’re doing,” she explained.
Secondly, the waitress said she is always forced to appear friendly and cheerful, regardless of her own mood.
“You have to be ready to put on that fake smile if you’re having a bad day, push it out the window, and sometimes that can be a lot,” Marie said.
Finally, the young woman mentioned that some waitresses at restaurants can be “competitive” when it comes to getting tables to earn tips.
“There are girls who will be competitive, girls who will try to cut in front of you in line. Some girls will try to take the tips left on your table,” she said.
However, she admitted that not all are like that. “Nine out of ten girls you work with are there for the same reason as you and will be very nice,” Marie insisted.
To wrap up the video with positive energy, she shared some “pros” of her job, saying that female friendships were among the most important benefits.
“I’ve met some of the best girls working at Hooters. My manager is now one of my best friends,” Marie concluded.
