I first read the story on a site that didn’t include the picture, and I was solidly on the waitress’s side, hoping she takes them to the cleaners, etc. Now that I’ve seen the picture I’m still on her side, but I have to say that picture is hilarious - it cracks me up the way she’s glumly staring at the boxed muppet. ---

- - - And let’s be honest, for a 26-year-old, she hardly has the chest to be a Hooter’s girl anyway. [zing!] - The only women Hooter’s exploits are the ones who fill out the applications and then keep showing up for work. - MC ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by LouisB \* > \*\*She claims the man specifically said “a new Toyota automobile.” If so, I hope she wins the lawsuit and I hope the jerk gets fired. In fact, he should be fired out of hand just for being a mean-spirited, petty jerk. Humor at the expense of another human being is NOT funny. \*\* Yes it is. The only reason the guy deserves to get fired is the totl incompetence with which he pulled of the practical joke. Done properly then it could have been great, a little monthly morale booster. Hey you… you’ve won a **fat check**. Produces a small squat chzeckoslovakian person. Hey you… you’ve won a bit of **money**. Produces a postcard of paintings by Monet. etc. etc. However, he played the game poorly and screwed up. What a fool. ---

I think she should have clued in when her boss said: > [@](#): > > **Sell beer, or sell not. There is no try.** [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/hooters-waitress-wins-new-toy-yoda-now-suing/74160.md?page=1)
