Too FAT for Hooters?

I'm sure, but if being a waitress is her life goal I think she's getting what she deserves...

Honestly, I would think that being hot with your knockers hanging out at like an Applebee's would be better tip-wise because you don't have any competition.

Sorry, but this made me laugh. What industry?


You don't think local restaurant owners talk to each other?

No one will hire her if they think she'll sue as soon as they make her work or comply with a simple request/rule.

You are right she will never find a waiting job again in all of Detroit. :hitfan:

Would not knock the profession I know quiet a few folks in the DC area working at top end restaurants pulling down six figures.

I am willing to bet a Hooters waitress in a metropolitan market makes around $50k a year.

That would be totally insane. I can't imagine the turnover at high end restaurants nightly (even though they're expensive) being enough to support that kind of cash. DAMN!

Have GMScud weigh in, I am sure he has seen it as well.

You know who really makes bank, a Bell Man in a nice hotel. Never mind the tips the amount of kick backs they get from, tours, cabs, etc... is through the roof.

I had a friend who worked at a Ruby Tuesdays in my area and was pulling down $40k. So yeah in a metro area I would say $50k at the least.

I'll never understand the preference so many people seem to have for the emaciated look.
Is this emaciated? (swimsuit pic, but linked in case people are at work)

no, it's just someone who takes pretty good care of their body

the girl in question isn't nasty, but whereas they could hire someone without even minor bulges in her waist and hip area (aka the muffin top) instead of continuing to employ her they've got a reason to protect their interests

it's not like they just straight up fired her.. I'm sure they could find something that she'd done wrong at work and gone about it that way, they're giving her a chance

hooters waitresses are less waitresses and more company models

Yeah this sounds about right to me. Problem is they often have to pay for health insurance out of pocket. Restaurants are not known for providing the best health insurance, though admittedly I don't know what Hooters' benefits are like specifically.

$50K for a company like Citi in a data analyst type role, or something like that, is worth a lot more than $50K from waiting tables at a typical restaurant.

IF both are making $50k I willing to bet the Hooters waitress net pay is higher.

But you are right Citi job is a career so eventually over time that person will make more money.

I am also just saying if you are looking for a well paying job that doesn't require a ton of education waiting tables or bartending may be a good route for you. I will add it is a lot of hard work and very stressful.
