Out of work? Come on down to the Foxy Lady's job fair!

[Article 15]

PROVIDENCE, R.I.—Here's a job opportunity you won't need to buy a new wardrobe for. Hoping to take advantage of Rhode Island's floundering economy, owners of the Foxy Lady strip club in Providence plan to hold a job fair on Saturday.

They say they're looking to fill around 30 positions, from strippers and waitresses to disc jockeys and bartenders, at that club and two others in Massachusetts. "I need more managers, I need more competent staff, and I need more attractive waitresses to go along with the ones I have right now," said co-owner Tom Tsoumas.

The naked truth is that Rhode Island's economy is among the worst in the nation, with an unemployment rate of 10.3 percent in January.

I heard on NPR that Fall River Mass (which is on the MA R.I. border) has a 16% unemployment rate.

That's probably double what it normally is in that dying mill town.

I lived in Fall River for the year I went to UMASS Dartmouth back in the late 90's.

I don't miss the place.
