Today, I got fired as a waiter because I refused to serve alcohol to a pregnant woman and she reported me. Turns out she's not pregnant, she's just a fat Karen. FML

NEVER EVER assume a woman is pregnant unless she tells you. She doesn't even deserve to be called a Karen, don't blame her for being pissed.

while it may not be the best decision for them, it's not illegal for pregnant women to drink. remember that before you screw up another job. I just saw a seventy year old woman who literally had a baby bump shaped stomach... just sayin

Even if she was pregnant, it’s her right to drink alcohol even if it’s not a smart decision.

Get your fat head out of your ass and stop assuming a woman is pregnant by her body shape. You should have asked your manager to handle it.

A bunch of other folks are blasting you for this. Just remember this. You may be unemployed right now, but you'll find another job. Fat karen however, will always be a karen and will most likely always be fat.

Hey asshole, this is totally OP's fault. There was no reason to refuse service, and the customer had every right to report OP for not accepting her order. Also, we only have OP's word that this woman was rude and entitled, but based on their own admission that they didn't do their job correctly, it's a safe bet OP is fishing for back up instead of admitting they ****** up. Good luck living on welfare, OP. YDI.

Technically they could be sued either way. If they serve a pregnant woman alcohol that's negligence, if they don't, and she isn't, that's discrimination.

The comments on here are wild. Even if you were ill informed about the woman’s bump, you’ve got the right idea to not serve what could have been a pregnant woman.

Not true. OP has no say in refusal of service unless word has come down from management first. It's not OP's call to prevent a customer from drinking alcohol even if they confirm they're pregnant. What's he gonna do next? Prevent some middle-aged dude from eating a steak because of the risk of a heart attack? He's not a doctor, he's a former waiter who should have done his job correctly.

A waiter cannot refuse to serve women who look like they are pregnant. That limit a woman's right to drink based on both her gender and her medical condition. This is a violation of the Civil Liberties Act and, despite the fact that she is pregnant and the fact that alcohol is known to cause fetal complications, the woman's right to make choices about her body is hers alone.

It's bananas to me that this is correct. Pregnancy/women is actually a protected class so it's discrimination to not serve her. However if he does serve a pregnant women, that's negligence, which they could be sued over. I would have thought the right to refuse service would cover this but not in the case of sex/pregnancy discrimination.
