Unemployment in the District of Columbia went up in May after the federal government didn’t hire as many people as it had been. So, obviously, the District government is trying to fill in the gaps. With strippers.
Yes, the District’s official jobs website currently features a listing searching for “exotic dancers” — both naked and clothed — at Stadium Club, the strip club located at 2127 Queens Chapel Road NE. (Pay commensurate with experience, natch.)
The club is actually one of the website’s “preferred employers” — though I’m not sure that’s the kind of statement the city government really wants to be making. Patrick Madden, who first uncovered the listing, reports that a spokesperson from the city’s Department of Employment Services is “working on removing the listing.”
