Employed as a waitress at a local family restaurant near New York City, I found the pay to be fair and that the people -- staff and customers -- were nice. But one day a coworker showed me an advertisement for employment for a new restaurant opening. It stated, "Now taking applications for all positions. Women owned and operated. Come and work at an upper scale location for great pay and other benefits." It also had the contact information.
Intrigued, I dressed up in one of my nicer outfits and went to have a look at the location. The place was just at the outskirts of the city, but that actually made it fairly accessible from my apartment. It was still under construction but I could already see it was going to be a really nice place.
I called in, expressing my interest. The nice woman that answered the phone asked me a few preliminary questions about my previous experience. Satisfied, she invited me for an actual interview. "I need to tell you ahead of time that the interview will be recorded on video. That video will be passed along for a review by the top management." I told her that I had no problem with that, and that I looked forward to the interview.
When I met with a woman from personnel for my interview, she greeted me warmly as she shook my hand and invited me to sit. During the interview, she explained, "We plan to cater to a very exclusive group of high class customers. Therefore we'll conduct a rigorous background check on all our employees, and also will require them to sign a confidentiality agreement to enforce absolute secrecy about the customers and their behavior. In addition, all employees will be required to wear a special costume while on duty."
I smiled at her, saying "I have no problem with any of that. It actually makes me feel better that the work environment sounds so protective and confidential. I'm sure that your clientele will be a better class of people because of your precautions." I answered more of her questions, maintaining good eye contact and a very respectful manner. I also smiled a lot, indicating how I loved this line of work.
Several days later I received a call. The woman that had interviewed me said, "We'd like you to come in for a second interview." We arranged a date and time. After I hung up, my heart accelerated from the good news as I whispered, "That sounds good. I must've passed the original screening and now I think I have a real chance at the job."
That second interview took place in the office of the manager herself. I'd dressed to display my professional manner as best I could. The manager was just a bit older than me and for her to be so important at that young age impressed me greatly. She told me, "You gave a great interview. Its recording was sent to the owner, and she selected you out of three finalists." I imagine that I beamed a smile at hearing that. She went on to ask, "Do you know that there is a special costume to be worn when on duty?"
"Yes, Ma'am. That was explained to me at the interview."
"Then it's time you had a look at the costume." She handed me a photo of a latex maid's outfit, low cut in the front, with a short skirt held out by ruffled petticoats. There were several shots of the outfit, showing front, back and side views. I could see it also included a garter belt and seamed stockings. And to complete the outfit, the woman's feet were in black ankle strap high heels.
I was immediately enthusiastic! "Wow! This looks so cute and sexy! I love the look!"
"You need to understand that each of the waitresses will receive two copies of the outfit. And these are quite costly, because each is hand made to order. So you agree to wear this outfit when you work for us?"
"Oh yes! I absolutely agree! I can't wait to wear such a beautiful outfit!"
The manager lifted the phone, pressed a button, and said, "Yes. Send them in."
Two oriental women came into the manager's office, and they started to measure me from head to toe. And I do mean everything, including my wrists and ankles. When they were satisfied that they had all my data captured in their notebook, one of them told me, "It will take two weeks for your costume to be ready. We will call you to come in for a final fitting."
The oriental women left the room. The manager stood, reached across her desk to shake my hand, and said, "You're hired. You can go home now, and we'll be in touch once your costume is ready."
I went home elated that day and started to look online for pictures of French maids' outfits, daydreaming. About two weeks later, one of the oriental women called, telling me, "Come for your final fitting." She gave me an address of a shop in Chinatown and a time.
I had never worn latex before, except as gloves, and I was pleased to know I wasn't allergic to it. When I got to the unfamiliar shop for my final fitting, I learned that it was a fetish shop! As I looked around, I wished I'd known about this place before, because it was amazing. The same two ladies where there and after greeting me, took me into a back section of the store which was like a very large dressing room. In a nonchalant manner, they undressed me completely.
