Today, I got fired from my new waitress job after 2 shifts. They said I wasn't experienced enough to handle the fast pace. I thought I'd been doing well so I asked my friend who works there what really happened. Apparently not showing my boobs enough at a family place was grounds for dismissal. FML

Today, I was fired from my job as a waitress, all because someone complained there was too much seasoning in their food. As I said, I'm a waitress. This happened the same week I was hired. FML

That is so unfair. Don't loose your self respect for a job.

You don't want to work at a place like that anyways. You deserve a better job where they actually treat their employees with self respect.

If I were you, I'd report them. That's called chauvinism and sexual harassment. People should know that's the kind of business they run. It's wrong!

Report them for what another employee said as a rumor? Good luck with hearsay carrying any weight what so ever.

It wasn't a hooters, it was a family restaurant with plenty of kids and everything in there. I'm glad I'm not there anymore, it seems there were some other potentially sketchy things going on as well. Thanks everyone for your support! I don't think I'd have enough grounds to sue, nor do I have the funds to hire a lawyer =/
