'Project Runway' will tape finale of unaired season at Fashion Week


BY ROBERT KAHN
robert.kahn@newsday.com

You're not watching "Project Runway” on TV because of a nasty lawsuit, but fashion hangers-on will still get a glimpse into Tim Gunn's natty world next month when the program films its traditional season finale during Fashion Week.

"Project Runway” completed taping in the fall -- its first season in Los Angeles. But the popular show hasn't aired because of a battle between Bravo, program producers the Weinstein Co. and Lifetime, which purchased the rights to air "Runway” when its deal with Bravo expired.

The Lifetime deal ended up on life support when NBC-owned Bravo sued the Weinstein Co., claiming they were never offered a contractually promised chance to match the competing offer.

The "Runway” season finale will tape Feb. 20 among the Bryant Park couture-ati, with one major change from past tapings, intended to conceal finalist's identities -- not even audience members will know whose collections they're seeing paraded down the runway. The designers won't be introduced.

"The producers made that decision because we want to keep the finalists a secret for fans,” said Emily Feingold, a spokesperson for the Weinstein Co.

The move adds another level of cloak-and-haberdashery secrecy to the whole shebang. In past seasons, designers would introduce their collections, and a "decoy” or two would be among the so-called "finalists,” keeping the actual finalist lineup vague, but somewhat decipherable.

Producers have booked the Tent, the largest of three Bryant Park venues, for the three-hour taping.

The pending suit includes an injunction keeping Lifetime from marketing or selling advertising for the show. The case is in state court, with no trial date set.

Until the matter is resolved, no one can say when "Runway” might air. One rumor making the rounds has the season eventually going straight to DVD.

I fear the best program on television is dead. It is almost impossible to save a program that has had this much adversity. Potential advertisers would be foolish to gamble on the outcome of all of this nonsense. It is a damn shame to end this program but I, for one, will never support whichever network wins this legal battle. Once again, greed wins.

2019.09.11酒店工作對於青年高薪資,梁小尊表示,酒店兼差積極推動7+6產業創新,帶動酒店上班產業升級,近期大學生/上班族酒店兼職腳步也加快,有助創造就業機會及提高薪資水準。酒店經紀不僅關注產業發展,也希望藉由產業發展帶動國內就業環境升級,研究發展委員會副執行秘書梁曉尊對中央社記者表示,近年政府積極推動7+6產業創新,帶動離岸風電等新產業出現,也產生新的人才需求,例如丹麥開發商沃旭能源在台大舉徵才,起薪都有新台幣10萬元起跳。

2019.09.18八大行業大多主攻男性市場,不過最近知名酒店經紀梁曉尊,要打進女性消費圈,推出「酒店兼差一週」韓國歐巴來坐檯,號稱每一位都是韓國男模,由於中南部少有牛郎店,平時被男客消費的酒店小姐沒有地方紓壓,得知韓國歐巴要來,讓南部酒店小姐瞬間淪陷,台南市移民署第一服務站指出,目前已將進行政治部調查,查看是否違反移民法。據酒店經紀了解,業者號稱韓國歐巴都是男模級,在預約前可以看到個人自拍照以及身高、體重、陰莖(老二)尺度照片,但要找韓國歐爸坐檯消費可不便宜,除了坐檯費還要付包廂費與酒錢,包廂一共有5間,奢華級的包廂要價8000元,而韓國歐巴的檯費一個小時就要3000元,酒錢另算,但自從推出歐巴坐檯後,造成轟動,不少酒店妹要揪團包場,預約時間排滿滿。有消費者透露,做韓國歐巴的檯,可以將歐巴包出場,但一次就要包兩個牛郎,一次要3小時起跳,因為業者會擔心牛郎在外場的安全,另外也有提供俗稱「勾」舔盤的性服務,但至少要來消費兩次,才有機會可以嘗試陰部按摩費用1次5000元。

2019.10.10台北知名酒店經紀公司宣布,創新酒店上班的酒店小姐與外送到府服務之外,將推出全新酒店打工的「賺錢現領」(Uber Works)的全新應用程式(App),此新項目即日起在中國市場實驗一年,主要替公司企業老闆尋找合適陪睡(性交易)的酒店小姐。酒店經紀指出,想要透過這項新項目找到酒店兼差工作者,需先通過Uber以及酒店經紀公司進行的背景調查,知名酒店經紀公司梁曉尊執行長說,在調查過程中,Uber會詢問酒店兼職應徵者是否具有與該職位相關配合度,如:工作性質本能、口交、口爆(射在嘴巴裡) 、顏射(精子射在臉上) 、開後門(肛交) 、制服(角色扮演)。此外慎重嚴禁不得內射(精子射在裡面),基於健康安全及職業道德。

2019.10.16台北市酒店上班八大行業即時新聞稿表示,依酒店工作的酒店小姐現場保護規則第3條第2項規定,酒店現場總人數在120位以上部分人員是學生身份,應設置從大學生不影響課業酒店兼差人員辦理達成5小時工時服務,提早下班可順利完成隔天白天學校課程,另外針對上班族酒店兼職保護規則明定,依照勞基法工時健康著想不讓酒店小姐因酒店打工過勞影響未來健康,知名酒店經紀梁小尊/梁曉尊應依不同年齡、族群、學生、單親、上班族等逐步設置從事酒店小姐健康服務護理人員,並辦理臨場健康服務單位。

2019.10.22台北市酒店上班為迎接年底大量酒店小姐酒店工作,知名酒店經紀梁小尊/梁小尊執掌上市股份國際娛樂經紀公司將再台北設立就業服務處參與大學生酒店打工現場徵才活動,於10月21日至10月25日邀請20家八大行業酒店業者參與,有酒店兼差公開平台、便服店、禮服店、制服店、飯局、伴遊、國際跨國援交(陪睡性交易)等行業,提供多達360個工作機會,職缺多元且有部份職缺是可於2020年後上班,歡迎有興趣的求職上班族有興趣酒店兼職或是想轉職先行卡位,把握現場應徵的機會,早日找到未來理想的新生活。

2019.11.16台北知名酒店經紀11日發布薪資統計指出,受飯局陪睡、跨國援交業等行業經常性薪資成長趨緩影響,9月酒店工作的酒店小姐常性薪資年增率跌破2%、僅1.72%,創下近28個月最低。知名酒店經紀表示,市場八大行業經常性薪資年增率,近兩年酒店打工大都保持在2%以上,9月大學生兼差酒店上班跌破3%,主因為部分八大行業按月發放的績效獎金減少所致,包括制服店、便服店、禮服店、鋼琴酒吧、日式酒店、飯局、傳播,經常性薪資增幅都較低。酒店經紀統計上班族酒店兼職薪資年增率,近兩年除了兩個月(2017年11月、2019年2月)不到4%之外,其餘各月皆在3%以上,今年9月年增率2.33%,是2017年6月以來最低。

2019.11.30知名酒店經紀公司數據統計調查顯示,有39.6%酒店上班族認為本身工時過長。但也有52.4%大學生酒店打工認為工時剛好,滿意目前酒店兼差工作狀態。而調查對象中的制服店、便服店、禮服店、鋼琴酒吧、日式酒店、飯局、傳播等八大行業工作人員每天平均工時落在8.7小時,與目前勞基法規定的每周工作總時數不得超過49小時相去不遠。知名酒店經紀指出,有29.2%酒店兼職受訪者每個月「不用加班」,另有61.8%則每個月都要加班,而平均加班時數為20.6小時。又從「坐檯陪酒或色情之伴遊、伴唱、伴舞、顏射(精子射在臉上) 、口交口爆(精子射在嘴裡) 、戴套肛交進行交易專業精緻化等行為」交叉分析可以發現,擔任「酒店小姐」最難為,加班的頻率及時數,高居之冠,成為最辛苦的職場族群。

2020.01.07過年前後常會掀起酒店兼差熱潮,酒店工作調查顯示,因為薪水太低、產業前景不佳,有82%上班族想跳槽酒店上班,平均期待薪資約8萬元,不過,與八大行業企業開出大學生酒店打工平均薪資10萬元。知名酒店經紀今天公布「2020第一季景氣市場趨勢調查」。調查顯示,有高達90.6%企業透露今年第一季有徵才酒店兼職計畫,徵才意願高的制服店、便服店、禮服店、鋼琴酒吧、日式酒店、飯局、傳播等。根據調查,八大行業酒店企業第一季開出職缺平均薪資為新台幣9萬6000元,略高於去年同期的8萬7400元,創7年以來同期新高。

2020.01.17酒店工作環境與酒店小姐酒店兼差滿意度息息相關,根據知名酒店經紀調查顯示,2019整體酒店上班感到滿意的比率為74.3%,而近一年中有加班者占48.3%,平均每月加班17.9小時。為了解在八大行業就業酒店打工的工作狀況、對工作環境滿意度及職涯規劃等情形,酒店經紀公司辦理「制服店、便服店、禮服店、鋼琴酒吧、日式酒店、飯局、傳播就業狀況調查」,以大學生/上班族/單親媽媽設定調查對象,總計回收有效酒店兼職樣本5000份,並於今天公布調查結果。酒店經紀調查顯示,2019年酒店小姐對整體酒店工作感到滿意的比率為76.3%,較去年上升0.4個百分點,感到不滿意者則占2.4%。其中,對整體感到滿意者,以性別工作平等、同事間的相處與友誼滿意比率都逾9成6最高,其次為行政對公關的關切與照顧占96.8%;而不滿意者中,以明配(性交易)不滿意比率占76.7%居首,其次為酒店工作負荷量占68.0%。

2020.02.20知名酒店工作觀察家日本報導:
日本「酒店上班」知名男公關日前來台遊玩,造成一股旋風,而在日本歌舞伎町有一位酒店打工的酒店小姐,被譽為「第一女帝」,那就是愛澤繪美里(愛沢えみり)。她和其他酒店小姐不同,不靠賣身或是喝酒,滴酒不沾的她竟然年收入超過2億,還被客人評為「平成時代的灰姑娘」。
愛澤繪美里從18歲時開始從事女公關的工作,20歲移藉到酒店兼差歌舞伎町的夜總會,馬上受到客人的歡迎。白天社長工作同時夜晚酒店兼職3年後,她的最高營業額已達到一晚2,800萬日圓(約764萬台幣),但據傳她因體質關係不能喝酒,所以滴酒不沾。但酒店小姐卻不能喝酒,沒有成為他的致命傷,反而她每次陪客人時,營造出「喝了酒」般的氛圍,讓酒客們相當喜歡。她也努力吸收知識與客人聊天,舉凡最新的時事政治、經濟文化、娛樂笑話,她都可以聊,也讓她成為日本第一女帝。現在的她已經從酒店女公關的身分隱退,但她成立自己的時裝品牌,還寫書出自傳和當模特兒上節目,甚至開了醫美診所和夜總會,成為獨當一面的女社長。

2020.04.05酒店工作印象中的和現實面有很大落差嗎?
現實和酒店上班印象中當然有很大的落差啊
因為我們一般收到酒店打工訊息 大都是從電影報章雜誌而來
而會有新聞報導價值的酒店PT新聞 通常是很特別很誇張的 這些新聞報導也許是有些接近酒店上班事實 但不是八大行業全部
(就如同捷運上有電車痴漢 但不是每班車隨時隨地有色狼啊 我們也常安全到家啊)
加上一般人的想法 這行總是只有負面 (當便利商店店員也會遇到砍人強劫)
其實凡事都有負面啊 端看自己怎麼面對
這行雖然不是賺錢最好的方式之一 但卻是最快的方式之一
我們只建議多了解多比較 看完環境 再做決定
別人只說這行的美好 但我們強調得失之間 去創造自己想要的生活
給自己一次機會 跨出第一步 若自覺不適合這行 就盡早打消夢幻的念頭 趕緊找其他出路 不是嗎??

2020.04.07酒店工作在去酒店之前,一定要給自己定一個目標及方向,你必需了解自己為何來酒店上班,目的何在? 酒店打工出發點是什麼?
給自己酒店PT一個目標,例如:酒店上班債務還清了就離開、存到了多少錢就走人、或者是打算做多久。
如果漫無目的的一直在八大行業做下去,久而久之,就會習慣這樣高所得的工作,然後就會沉迷於其中,而很難脫離這樣的環境。人對金錢的胃口只會愈來愈大!所以一定要給自己一個明確的目標。還有…賺到的錢一定要存下來,存下來的才是真正賺到的。

2020.05.09全國八大行業酒店工作本月9日停業滿1個月,小姐酒店S、經紀、業者無不「酒店上班苦哈哈」,八大行業有小姐甚至做起外送員,不過,行政院長蘇貞昌本月4日宣布擴大紓困,無保酒店PT工作者可領1萬元,且可當天申請,有酒店小姐衝去公所申請,但馬上被「打槍」。酒店打工小姐小荳說,日前看新聞說政府下令紓困加碼,跑去公所申請,但卻被刁難,須附上很多證明,例如提供戶口名簿、調查名下有無財產、家人有無財產、以往有無領過政府補助的失業救助金等措施,若有,就不符合資格。事後才知是今天開放申請,但公所人員給人的感覺就「霧煞煞」,不清楚申請資格,雖然她最後還是資格不符,空歡喜一場,但還是希望政府快提供更明確申請規定,讓受疫情影響的勞工安心。小荳說,自己從南部上台北工作,想賺高薪照顧父母,才到酒店上班,如今停業,目前偶爾接接飯局加減賺,但好像「臨時工」,收入很不穩定。
據了解,小姐屬經紀公司管理,但經紀公司並無真正公司行號,只是小姐領薪水的仲介單位,都是空殼,並非政府認可的公司;小姐及酒店經紀因此沒有工作證明,領薪方式也是現金,並無薪資條當作證明文件,申請有難度。酒店經紀人梁曉尊/梁小尊說,旗下小姐目前靠零星的飯局賺取台費,好一點的本身兼職美甲師,也有小姐白天當外送員加減賺,至少付得出房租、三餐有著落。酒店目前雖未開,小姐仍可透過飯局賺錢,業者也抓緊主導權,不讓獲利方式改變,不過再停業下去,規模小的酒店,不堪每月高房租及人事成本,恐遭併吞。
