Dennis Gomes, the new owner of Atlantic City's Resorts Casino, needs to lose his license and be run out of New Jersey, but not before he turns each of these women into multi-millionares. They are food and beverage servers, not pole dancers.

ATLANTIC CITY - Resorts Casino Hotel was slapped with a discrimination lawsuit Thursday that claims the gaming hall fired middle-aged cocktail servers to make way for younger women who supposedly looked better in skimpy new costumes...........
My wife works a designer clothing store. She cannot keep her job if she cannot fit into the clothing provided. When the current season (uniform) arrives from Italy, each stylist is fitted and the clothing altered to fit. The clothing only comes in certain sizes meaning nothing larger than a 12. If the clothes don't fit you gotta quit.
To the guy whose wife works in designer retail...I imagine that was a condition of the job when your wife was hired...not quite the same for the casino employees.
If the casino can prove the rebranding is vital to their ability to survive financially, they will win. In the same way, as Hooters can demand physical appearence be taken into account for continued employment.

Many men can only wish that their wife had to meet such requirements as well.
When Resorts was purchased and under new management, it is theoretically no longer Resorts! The new management/ Company can fire and replace any and all employees at will from top to bottom. Cocktail servers in Atlantic City casinos are all in the union and once hired, can't be fired all that easily. Start up is something else altogether though!
You will notice that the Borgata, a relatively new casino has all incredibly hot-looking waitresses, the "Borgata Babes" as they are called. Stop by there in about 15 years and see what they are looking like! They will then look as war-torn and weatherbeaten as the cocktail waitresses at Caesars, some of which have been there for a LOOONNNNGGGG time.
The thing about why Borgata has such hot-looking waitresses is that they are a relatively brand new casino and the waitresses were carefully hand-picked. New ownership means essentially the same thing! If they fire much of the middle-management also (which they will and replace them as they see fit) will they have a leg to stand on if they sue? Of course not! There is no law that stipulates that when you buy a business you are contractually obligated to keep all the previous employees and it's your option to change staffing and management as you see fit.
They would be sueing a company that has folded and the company folding is the basis of them losing their jobs. Any waitressing staff that they keep are essentially "new hires".

Size 12 is not exactly petite. I'm a curvy 5'6" and wear a 6, an 8 in certain styles cut narrow through the hips or chest.
