The shrewdly self-aware and empowered Tina boldly shatters the stereotype of 30-something single women as neurotics obsessed with high-powered careers or with marriage. Self-assured waitress Tina is the star of the strip Tina's Groove by cartoonist Rina Piccolo. Readers can follow the adventures-in her personal life and as she works at Pepper's restaurant-of this single, smart, attractive woman in her 30s. Supporting players include Tina's best friend, Suzanne, a fellow waitress with a busily buzzing social calendar and a penchant for offering unsolicited advice; Carlos, a man's man who talks a good game; Monica, a spacey, distracted hostess at the restaurant; Rob, the straitlaced restaurant manager; and Claud, the outlandish, storytelling, truck-driving Pepper's regular. Tina's Groove is sure to appeal to independent working women in their 30s who are hungry for a character to whom they can relate. In syndication for more than three years, the strip appears in such newspapers as the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, the Cincinnati Enquirer, the Arizona Republic, and the Toronto Star.

Tina is bored working in Sasaki Industries’ production department. The Japanese company manufacture sex toys and companion dolls, in England, for the high end of the market. Her job in quality control involves inspecting the products, like dildos, for flaws before they are packaged and dispatched to customers. The job pays well and because Tina hadn’t seen another job she fancied, she stayed on at Sasaki. She had been working at S.K.I. for over a year and was getting itchy feet. Then, she spotted an announcement on the Firm’s noticeboard. Fulltime Research Assistant Required. All female members of staff may apply. Interviews start on Friday. Contact Miss Evans in the Personnel Department. Tina wondered if the new job has something to do with trying out the company’s sex toys. At first, such a thought was enough to put her off applying.
