Well, from a legal perspective, if the size requirements were NOT made a part of the hiring/interview process, then he does not have grounds to tell her this. I understand that this place makes their business off showcasing the female body. But if the size and shape requirements were not clearly delineated up front, then he is in trouble. If it WAS made clear during the hiring process, then she needs to get to work and shape up.
What you deem *way too fat* others may not see that way. 140lbs at 5ft7 is slightly underweight. The idea is not to compete with other women, the idea is to make a living by bussing tables. She obviously met with his standards at hiring time, so what is the magic number that gets you out of a job? 5 lbs? 6lbs? Certainly there is a standard for this place. The question is whether or not it is defined in a legal sense, or if it is just determined by this man s opinion.
If the sight of a person makes you *grossed out* then I suggest you learn a bit more about what life is about. Your eyes are too sensitive.
