Every now and then, we all need a little attention. If you’re “polite, friendly and good-looking foreign male” who is interested in relocating to Japan, consider being a butler. Help Japanese women escape the hustle of one of Tokyo’s most crowded areas, Shibuya. Woo them with pillow talk as they gazing longley into your crazy eyes; no wait experience needed.

Think you have what is takes? After the break you’ll find the job posting from Craigslist JP, and some interviews of what it’s like to work in a host club.  Ladies, sadly the only way you’d be able to work in one of these clubs is to pull a Haruhi Fujioka a la Ouran Host Club. In my home city, as I’m sure across the U.S., there is a growing trend of “sexy” related services for men such as coffee shops and hair cuts; absent are ones catering to women. Clearly there are some cultural differences, but I think female patrons of a butler club in America would be stigmatize. That’s too bad for me, I think I’d be a terrific host!
