Quote from atticus:

Enough hyperbole. I called. Hosts can earn up to $50k with seniority, and they are hiring.

im sure thats the salary, how about tip sharing? the host usually gets a percentage, no??

as a former regular patron of said establishment and being a member of the infamous club of having a mugshot on the wall ( looks like a 300 pound baby) but none the less, its there---- i will say with some authority that the "front of house" at the palm brings in far more than 25k/year. im not sure how much, but its more than 25k, likely much more.

Just reading the last page I believed you were referring to the Post Office and was wondering what reward was posted.

given the amount of free information out there this is exactly what he should do, learn and earn, instead of sitting on a confortable chair waiting for some customers to show up.
ps. I think we should invite him here but wait he may not own a computer or have access to the Internet.

He's probably already posting & giving advice on the Trading threads

The woman said that that's the expectancy for their top hosts/hostesses, all-in. Feel free to call.

The very beginning of his post provides a clue.

interesting, im surprised. always thought those guys did better--- not sure how they survive at 25k/start.

i was guessing an average tab of 150/table, 10 tables a night = 300 plus for waiter/night----right?? and the host is the king waiter---what am i missing?

Have you been getting bombarded with those annoying brochures from "Henley on Hudson"?

Every 3 days I get another

"YOU WAITED, YOU WON" brochure saying that they've slashed up to $700,000 off their units.

Didn't care for them when they were being built. It's a dead area. Need to drive to get anywhere. Total hassle.
