Quote from: TravellingWithoutMoving on June 26, 2012, 07:17 pmrecently heardthe story goes, she was a stripper on the side and when her newspaper found out she was fired.after some time she released a book title "story on an angry stripper"a news presenter commented to the effect, "what is it about being a stripper that stops you from being a good journalist"- isn't that what we've been saying all along about designer drugs or generally getting high?!- forget for a second the view drugs are far more harmful blah blah blah, its the same point "of course you could still hold a job", but being a journalist / stripper is far more topical and makes interesting news!i cant wait for the opportunity to use this analogy in conversation haha.PeaceThis happened here in the UK except the girl in question was a Teaching Assistant, not a Journalist. I think in her case it was about the fact that she was in a position where she had to be seen to be a good role model to young girls she was teaching. Also if the boys at the school had found out she'd never have heard the end of it!It surprises me a bright woman who's a Journalist would want to be a stripper anyway. I suppose it must be about the money at the end of the day. Shame we men can't pull in so many Benjamins by standing around in our underwear! :-)V.
