Hooters employees complain that new uniform shorts are too skimpy​

A new look to the Hooters uniform has some employees voicing their concerns on social media.

The new-look uniform looks to make the traditionally short shorts that Hooters waitresses wear even shorter. In fact, some waitresses describe them in videos shared on social media as more “like underwear.”

Most of the videos have been shared on Tik Tok, several garnering more than one million views.

Hooters restaurants are operated by two companies, Hooters of America and The Original Hooters group, according to NBC News.

The Original Hooters has a total of 25 locations in Chicago, New York, and Tampa Bay, Florida, the report said. Those locations will not change from the standard uniforms.

Hooters of America has more than 420 Hooters restaurants in the U.S. and 28 other countries. Those locations have started rolling out the new look.

“The new uniforms were the result of a collaboration with Hooters Girls,” Hooters of America said in an email to NBC News. “These uniforms have been worn for months in several Texas markets and have received overwhelmingly favorable reviews from both Hooters Girls and customers.”

It told NBC News that it appreciates feedback “both positive and negative, regarding a more accommodating and inclusive image policy on tattoos, jewelry, nails, hairstyles as well as new uniforms — to include new top styles, shorts and the addition of socks.”

Can anyone explain to me what the point of hooters is? I can get better wings and see titties at a topless bar, if such is my desire.

Such is not my desire, but I at least get the appeal. Hooters is just the worst topless bar ever.
I got over it a long time ago as a personal assistant to a rich drunk asshole who would conduct most of his “business” meetings there. They do carry the good ufc fights and ppv sports but find yourself a good old man bar that does the same and you’re golden.
I did this when MySpace was first out, before only fans the girls were still all “models” and trying to get on the calendar.

Once you see them at the 4am bar and see they’re vile brats you get done with their shit.

Hoeing technology has advanced since then but it was the same type of narcissism you experience now.
 
The new Hooters uniforms is still way more modest then the new "uniform" the Dallas Cowboys wanted their cheerleaders to wear roughly twenty years ago. Which got rejected en masse by the cheerleaders and the ensuing shitshow when the media got wind of it.
 
Wait, isn't the restaurant named about breasts? I'm there to see tits, if I wanted to go to a place where I could eat wings and stare at ass, I could just go a strip club. My argument is the new uniform is too revealing in the ass, not revealing enough in the breast department.
It's more like the "shorts" are force-feeding themselves into their butts.

And that's my contention with it. I was promised breasts, and unlike breasts, buttocks isn't something that is inherently nice. Breasts big or small, they are wonderful, but I find it hard to go crazy over all but the most exceptional looking of asses.

I got restaurants for food not tits. Why isn't there a place named dong's any way. I bet it would be highly unsanitary.
There used to be. I remember it. Best Chinese food in town. Then they got accused of cooking cats, shut down, torn down, and they built a McD’s where Dong’s used to be
 
Some places do use them as sort of a franchise sports pub. The food is standardized enough that it will rarely be bad even if it's never great. I've seen families eat there and kids birthdays.
Kids' birthdays at Hooters? Damn it I seriously missed out didn't I...
 
I'm not really the target audience but I always thought the orange shorts were neat, was a simple outfit that was enough to get horny boomers excited. I really don't want to think about waitresses sweating in their wedgies while serving me food

Haven't gone to a Hooters too often because I'm not interested in ogling a woman who's feigning willingness while accompanied with what's not very good food. If you're working at one you know what you're there for don't go acting like you're abused. Its not like they act like its Fourth Wave Feminism Hut before forcing the booty-shorts on you.
 
So....what you're thinking is some kind of horrifying degenerate adult chuck e cheese that serves alcohol?

I'm surprised there isn't something like that in portland
For the record, Chick e Cheese serves alcohol, and if you've been in one past the age of 12, that makes sense.

My dad took me to a Hooters in Myrtle Beach when I was 10 years old. Loved it. Had a smoking hot black waitress. Got my picture taken with her. I also remember enjoying the crab legs, but those are pretty hard to fuck up.
