Looking for beverage sales person! Will train, no experience necessary. Must have outgoing personality and is motivated. Work full-time or part-time at beachfront bar. Open 7 days a week from 12pm to 8pm. Must be Willing to wear swim wear uniform. Call 226-3232 for interview.

interesting - it is technically illegal to serve food without wearing an outfit with sleeves (covering the arm pits)

its very hot on beach, if you wanna wear sleeves dats fine. doesn't mean we'll hire you.

Follow the rules or lose your license...

thanks for the concern. we'll check it out... now, any takers?!

that rule seems to be as rubberized as all the rest.

Would I have to shave?

Nah...but you'll need a boob job!

Not these days, put on a few pounds this year, got a nice set of man boobs!

stopped by my favorite watering holes - tackle box, roadkill. didnt see barmaids w sleeves. seems strange for a tropical hotspot

rubber rules,, only enforced if there is an agenda.

i see, like rigging the price of real estate commissions?

In my day you needed a food handlers certificate which you are tested for every 3 months, but I have heard they are for 1 year now.

yes, maybe we are just behind the times.

Can the sleeves be mesh?

no shirt, no shoes, no problem ! - no sleeves = Problem
Makes perfect sence to me. Welcome to Belize !!

Must they be able to pole dance? We have age requirements,you know!

it does make perfect sense, but who said anything about serving food?? come on people, read twice before you answer on impulse. But thnx for the concern you all. we just want to operate a beachbar...dats it! and no, no pole dance necessary, u really would want us out of here, huh?! You can try 'coyote ugly' tho, heard they hiring....

Looks like the vulgarity is in someone's mind.

No kidding, what's the big deal with wearing beach attire serving drinks at a beach bar? Most bar maids on the island wear spaghetti straps or tanks, bikini tops and sleevless blouses - just like we patrons wear - its a tropical island for goodness sake! Simon's moobs aside, I think the swimwear attire adds a casual beach ambience to the scene.

"Most bar maids on the island wear spaghetti straps or tanks, bikini tops and sleevless blouses"

Could you point me in the right direction, I must be going to the wrong bars.

More like Ambience of a Mens Club,same mandatory uniforms,what about health codeThis sounds like a real classy place for San Pedro-NOT

Maybe you have issues with the proprietor ??? I don't know that guy, so maybe there's more to the story than just wanting to hire bar maids to wear swimwear to serve adults alcoholic bevvies. I didn't see any mention of pole or lap dancing in the ad. There is nothing crass about beach wear at a beach bar, and what's wrong with the business requiring a uniform? i've lived in SP and visit regularly for the past 10+ years and seriously, patrons and bar workers wear pretty much beachwear (bikini tops and shorts, flip flops or no shoes (health department where are you???), dudes running around in tank tops and swimsuit trunks. Some of the bands playing at many beach bars wear the same type of clothing, or lack thereof. Is this going to be some kind of 'gentlemen's club' or what?

barmaids and servers wearing tanks and spaghettie straps - and looking just fine, in fact all of these ladies are gorgeous. seriously simon, wtf?

Lets see what the Mayor thinks! This has not been the first time someone has suggested this hair brain idea before.This is a conservative community that does not want to be like Cancun (spring break).Who is the owner,this would say a lot about them and what they want for the future of the island. Who is he?

Geez Tim, I don't know who he is. This will probably fall to the wayside if the community doesn't support it - you know how that works. It sounds like you have heard he is opening a sleazy men's club. I understand the community's mores dude - and if it doesn't fit in it will not last long. I'm just going by what the ad says - it doesn't mention thong or other stripper wear - just swimwear, which granted, could mean anything.

Tim knows who BA (the OP) is, he's playing coy to the competition.

You are mistaken,I have no Idea who owns this bar or where it is .Who the heck is it?

It must be satan himself LOL!

I do not think the bar is open, but you DO know the OP, Tim. Sorry, I will not out him, but it's easy to figure out....and I gave you a clue.

You call that a bikini top? Even at Fido's, the biggest beach bar on the island, the staff all wear T-Shirts.

I just had a look outside at all the women having a swim and the majority have t-shirts on. That tells me it's still pretty conservative around here.

I think you would have a hard time here finding local women to dress in a swimsuit for a job. Time will tell.

Simon what rubbish - one of the tagged 'bartenders' at casey's boatyard bar is indeed wearing a bikini top with a sleevless low cut blouse over it, and there are bellies bared, backless tops all around the island at bars and restaurants, as one would expect in a no shoes no shirt no problem environment. many bartenders/barmaids wear spaghetti straps or bare tanks - as do most patrons. swimming in a tee shirt is common for most women as a matter of sun protection and modesty, sure. i never suggested that this guy's ad will be flooded with floosies applying to wear itty bitty polka dot bikinis in order to earn a buck (or a half). you're the only one who's shown interest thus far. keep those moobs undercover dude!

Thanks! I think I have it now. If I am right, this family oriented community will never go for it. Sorry ,I can be a stick in the mud,the island means a lot to me. I know the decision makers,this will be interesting .

I wouldn't worry so much about SP becoming the next den of iniquity Cancun LOL.

If you lived here you might!

I have lived there - why so uptight with the bolding? i am more concerned with the ridiculous RE developments, dangerous eco-destroying over-dredging and lack of infrastructure than bikini bars. and the increase in violent crime is really something to look at. the island means so much to many of us.

sorry ( U R right),all the best!

I called and they said the uniform is shorts, a sarong, and a full coverage top. U r right, there are more important things to do if u want to preserve the island's beauty.

and the saga continues....

By the way the boat yard is now closed and so are 6 or 7 other bars that have tried to make a go of that location. Maybe BA is thinking about having bikini clad agents at his real estate office and serve drinks. Might help with the down real estate market. Make sure they are of legal age though!

more drama from the folks who collect 10% real estate commissions

Obviously they aren't making any commission. If they were actually out working and selling they wouldn't have time to continue posting such childish remarks.
