Real Stories Shared By Women Who Once Worked At Hooters

At some point at one Hooters branch, the staff decided to start a “Wall of Shame” in the kitchen for everyone to share their creepy encounters and notes left by clients to laugh together about them.

This former Hooters waitress pointed out that many men come in with their children to the establishment to have a “family bonding experience.” While that certainly makes some people uncomfortable, apparently, some people find it completely normal.

So if you love that wing sauce and you’d like to have some at home, you can actually buy it. And obviously, management really incentivizes its staff to advertise it to customers.

Sadly, many customers only go there because of the women. Some actually have favorites and request a specific person to serve them, which doesn’t really work hand in hand with having tables assigned.

A former employee has claimed that the company forbids Hooters girls from eating in front of customers because they believe that “the ideal woman” is never to be seen eating. What do you think about that?

But who would have thought that having your hair up is also a big no-no at Hooters? Considering this is the food industry, most places actually demand the opposite from their waitstaff.

For example, if a Hooters waitress shows their paycheck stub at a location where they don’t work, they may actually get themselves a t-shirt. Each location has its own city printed on their t-shirt, which means Hooters staff can have a nice collection of T-shirts.

While this was their way of taking safety measures, it’s pretty alarming that Hooters customers will actually wait around for the girls to finish their shift. While the company seems to have a policy in place, it seems like approaching the root problem could be more efficient.

According to this former employee, Hooters girls would sing a song called “Weenie Man,”  to whoever had a birthday, while doing a ritual that involves a hot dog, a bucket, and a little public humiliation. We hope they liked it!

She even added that serving customers on a daily basis made her feel a little bit like her customers’ psychologist. In the end, she only had good things to say about the chain, and even mentioned that in her particular branch, all body types were welcome.

According to her, servers under the age of 21 have a white name tag, those over 21 wear an orange tag, and trainers wear gold tags. We have no idea why they would differentiate between their staff’s ages, but well, we’re just going to accept that that’s how they work.

She liked her uniform so much, she couldn’t bear to part ways with it and even refused cold, hard cash for it.

In order to work at Hooters with a tattoo, one has to cover it to the point where no one can ever imagine that a tattoo exists.
