Casino discrimination to meet customer requests?

I remember a case several years ago where Harrah's/Reno fired one of it's longtime bartenders because she refused to wear makeup. IIRC, the court sided with Harrah's.

Vic, all you just did is show how much Trump's historic victory annoys you, just like the whiners and crybabies on CNN and MSNBC--along with how official crybaby-of-the-year Martha Radditz of ABC--are going to have to continue to struggle with for 8 years. In fact, I watch these people often, so I can laugh at their self-created self-torture.

Pure music to my pure heart!

Enjoy the coronation on the 20th because it's all downhill from there as the King tweets the country into Hell.

Your T & A argument as a legit reason to discriminate will not hold up whenever challenged, but as long as you are orgasmic when your drinks are delivered to you, no one really cares. Besides, the case about Caesars involves 3 employees all over 40 years of age and they have protection under Nevada law. Your lecherous viewpoints are irrelevant to the original post.

Harrah's won because it (makeup) is a lawful employment practice in Nevada:

It is not an unlawful employment practice for an employer to require employees to adhere to reasonable workplace appearance, grooming and dress standards so long as such requirements are not precluded by law, except that an employer shall allow an employee to appear, groom and dress consistent with the employee’s gender identity or expression.

I agree with Rob.

Private businesses are not charities. If a business refuses to employ qualified people, then the market will resolve the problem through competition. No employment laws required.

Discrimination laws force businesses to employ unqualified people. This violates the rights of business owners, while also discouraging potential employees from obtaining qualifications.

If you're still attempting to work as a cocktail waitress at age 70, maybe you should accept some responsibility for lack of career planning.

It's never as simple as what bocce states. If all business could agree on what "unqualified" means precisely, then okay. But if a hundred different businesses, all in the same business, have different definitions of what "qualified" or "unqualified" is, then why should it automatically revert to any particular business to be able to define what those terms mean? Having the capital to start a business does not (and should not) necessarily grant that business the alleged wisdom to discern what "qualified" or "unqualified" mean. Risking capital to start a business doesn't give you carte blanche decision-making latitude, nor should it.

I'm not sure an industry-wide assessment is a better definer of "qualified" or "unqualified," but at least that kind of metric sidesteps the idiosyncrasies, which could be blatantly unfair, of any given business or business owner.
