Might be quite tough now - as nova went bust, there are more teachers than jobs now I would imagine!

Hostess... If I could just talk and act like an idiot to get money, I would so do it. Wait a sec, I already do. Except I call it teaching.

Why would you lower yourself to that level?

They are paid to sit around and stroke the egos of drunk people. Both men and women frequent host and hostess clubs nowadays but mostly men. They are basically the modern form of geisha. That is really the best way to put it except a lot less culturally enriching. And there are a lot of gaijin doing it too.
