Pamela Mitchell

Mitchell, can I talk to you?

I'd like to ask you your advice.

And I'm thinking, thank God, at least somebody wants to talk to me here.

And this happened to me a lot.

So I said, sure, I'm happy to help you.

How can I help you?

And she says to me, Ms.

Mitchell, I've just started going to sex clubs.

And I thought maybe you could help me out with this.

I'd like your advice.

And as

I looked at her, and she's looking at me expecting me to have an answer about this.

All of a sudden, I just started to get really pissed, like, oh my God, this woman thinks that just because I'm a woman and I work for Playboy that I'm going to know something about sex clubs.

And that professor at grad school, he thinks that just because I'm a black woman, I can't have a transcript from Harvard.

And all these people in my world who are all pissed off that I'm working for Playboy, well, they can't see past their own attitudes about this to know whether or not this is a right job for me.

And all these people, none of them know me.

And why am I working so hard to try and please all these people when they don't know me anyway?

So I said to that woman, I'm sorry, I can't help you.

And I stayed at Playboy for three and a half years.

And I did some very good deals for them.
