Is the Recession Making Waitresses Hotter?

Hugo Lindgren explains the Hot Waitress Index:

>>> The hotter the waitresses, the weaker the economy. In flush times, there is a robust market for hotness. Selling everything from condos to premium vodka is enhanced by proximity to pretty young people (of both sexes) who get paid for providing this service. That leaves more-punishing work, like waiting tables, to those with less striking genetic gifts. But not anymore.<<<

When restaurants start laying off staff, the prettiest waitresses are presumably the last to go. Voila: Bad times make hot waitresses. Link
