19. That is not a flapper dress. That's lingerie.
If they had really used flapper dresses there's no reason in the world why the other woman couldn't have worn the dresses too, looked good in them, and kept their jobs.

But if they want their waitresses to walk around in skimpy lingerie, of course they're going to find excuses to discriminate and only employ their fantasy eye-candy. :(

If they are requiring their women employees to dress in these uniforms that intentionally scream "My Job is all about being sexy for you!" tell me, what do you think are the odds that sexual harassment is going to be a mandatory, constant part of their job? Both from the bosses who insisted that dressing women in lingerie at work is a good idea, and from customers who are allowed and expected to ogle them?

I'm guessing the chances are pretty high.

Anyone that gets stuck working in that place... I hope they have very thick skin, very tough attitudes, and amazingly amounts of money to make it worth putting up with the obvious B.S that must go with working in that place. :(
