Restaurant owner blasts city fines over single-gender ads New York Post

nov 21 2014
The owner of an Upper East Side restaurant who read in The Post that a downtown eatery was fined $5,000 fine just for placing an ad for “waitresses” is issuing a call to arms against the gender-based penalties.

“This is an outrage, and more restaurants need to share their stories so this nonsense is stopped,” Giuseppe Bruno wrote to The Post.

His own included. Bruno’s Italian eatery, Sistina, was slammed with its own $5,000 fine after a staffer placed an ad on Craigslist for a “hostess.”

In 2011, the Windsor, a Greenwich Village sports bar, was fined after a sting by the city Commission on Human Rights caught it trying to hire “waitresses” through Craigslist.

Gender-specific ads violate city civil-rights law.

Don't like the law? Change it. Until then, abide by the law = Don't get fined.

Even an inbred, trailer trash, feral, cracker racist should be able to understand that.

No, these kind of people are the product of liberal inbreeding.

Wherever the ad was placed is at fault. They are supposed to know what words can't be used. Hostess and waitress aren't the only ones. Mature, energetic and experienced can't be used either. It isn't only gender specific ads its ads that might indicate an age restriction too.

You would know. Hey, if you divorce your wife, will you still be considered brother and sister?

Looks like New York has become a Bizarro World.

It's pretty easy to beat, don't use gender specific ads and filter them out in the interview process. In this instance I'd interview all the females, and not interview the males. Then hire a female.

Give me the rules and I'll play the game.

 

[Stephanie]

I don't know what it is with the people of New York. they just let these politicians walk all over them. Maybe some day they'll get tired of it

 

[JoeMoma]

Does this mean Hooters has to also hire guys with big breasts?

It's discriminatory.

 

[JoeMoma]

Hiring people is suppose to be discriminatory. The employer discriminates against the less qualified to hire the most qualified.

Who got to vote on a stupid law like that? or was it just brought on us by appointed burocrats like so many other things. But hey even a silver spoon in his mouth creme broulet eater like you can see that all the new regulations each year are really a wonderful income stream, as in the end its really about the $$$$ .... lets keep those unnecesary rules coming, and now that the EPA can control the fish pond in your back yard, they can get even more income.

 

[Rozman]

Just wait till the PC police decide that " Black Friday " is racial....

 

[Yarddog]

exactly, they ask specifically for what they WANT ... in order to streamline the process of actually selecting the person they hire!
Of course thats a concept Goverment cant quite grasp .. Streamline the process to get what you need! ( God Help us)

Ok Liberals, all together now, grab the corners of your desk on on the count of three bang your head ( careful not to spill the coffee) one, twoooo....
and three! see that wasnt so bad ! try it every time you get more ideas like that.

Ask and it shall be answered.
