Indy Bar Manager Has Something to Say

Be warned. There are some curse words in this rather reasonable rant, so if that offends, don't read it:

That's beautiful. What a great guy to work for. I've seen those things happen at my local watering hole and see those that did it get totally ignored by the bartenders and waitresses. I mean they got no drinks or food.

I can think of a few regular posters here that will dismiss this article as being too sensitive and say that women need to get a grip with the facts of life. The truth is that the sexism found in the industry (as well as others) is not just ugly and disrespectful but harming and warping as well.
Thanks to this business leader for taking a stand. And thank you Jimmy for sharing it.

I wonder how Hooter's handles it? I don't go often, but I have never seen anything as disrespectful as how this gentleman acted. I would think that this behavior would be unacceptable at ANY decent establishment. Hell, if you talk like that to girls at a strip club the bouncers would have you out the door before you can say wh#$e

I'm with the author.

People should feel comfortable going to work or going to a Bar/Restaurant without being harassed.

We crack sex jokes all of the time- women are just as good at it as men. Those comments take it to another level though- they show no class, no respect.

He's basically picking on our friends, coworkers and guests because he feels like he can. This guest chases people away from the business. It's why many bars fail- nobody stands up to a caustic guest and nobody wants to work there or go there.

He should be shown the door.

Stephen makes a good point - females crack sexists jokes as well. It's also demeaning and unacceptable. No one, regardless of their sex, should be reduced to a disposable object.

When i was the bar manager at Garretts restaurant many years ago . A rather rude patron told a lady to sit on his face . He had been kicked out before for making rasist joke to a bartender of color ( i had only let him back in after he apologized and the bartender said he was ok w it ) he then tried to sue us for discrimination against a fat old white guy ?! This is not a joke and i had heard he did this several places , one of which settled w him . ( we did not give him a penny and as long as i worked there he was not allowed in )
