Pennsylvania woman claims Golden Corral kicked her out for dressing 'too provocatively' [photo]

A Pennsylvania woman claims she was asked to leave a Golden Corral restaurant last week because she was dressed "too provocatively."

Sueretta Emke said she was dining with her family at a Golden Corral in Erie, Pa. when a manager said her crop top was too inappropriate and some customers had complained. Asked what was inappropriate about her outfit, Emke said the manager couldn’t answer.

Emke wrote on Facebook that the manager’s request probably had more to do with her not being thin, “so it’s not considered sexy.” She said she had seen “people in there wearing less and nothing is said to them.”

“How can you not have a dress code but then make one up for certain customers if another customer complains? That’s not ok. It is discrimination,” Emke said. “And if you are okay with that, where are you going to draw the line?”

Emke told Yahoo Lifestyle she reached out to the regional training manager, who “apologized profusely.” He reportedly told Emke he planned to implement sensitivity training and hire more female managers.

She being fat is not the issue. It is her flagrant display of fat. Actually After having been to GC several times in the past (no more- I won't eat in a place where there is a line of more than half a dozen parties) expect to see many many very fat people.

Once upon a time there was a Sweden House all-you-ca-eat buffet established in my town. The food was very good. Over time the lines grew longer and longer and after a year and a half there would be a line way out into the parking lot before the doors even opened and it would be entirely composed of people in the 25# plus range. It closed after two years. My friend's wife said its where all the Eaters went, crowds of hippo people who would eat from open to close.

She’s not authorized to wear that outfit. I’ve seen worse at Golden Corral, though, so ...

Another fat acceptance babe.

See me.

See my rolls.

I don’t care if you are fat. Just don’t expect everyone to love acres of flabby exposed skin.

ten to one she’s a democrat.

I call BS. There’s an agenda here. because of that agenda, I don’t trust a single word of this narrative. I am so sick of false narratives being used to manipulate and control.

Yep, his name was John Pinette.

We have one where I live. It opened about four years ago. The parking lot is full every time I go by, day or night. There is always a line out the door on Sunday morning.

Not my cup of tea, but in the right location it draws a ton of people. I cannot argue with this.

I should open one in my snooty neighborhood (Upper Middle class when I moved here...but now Upper, Upper because the rich kids priced it out of the market over the past 25 years) It would do these folks some good to see “real people”once a while.

I like the corral. Here they bought an out of business hometown buffet. The corral has more variety like steak

Just looks like warm weather wear to me.

And that just shows how far cultural standards have fallen.

Should’ve redirected her to the local Wal-Mart. She’d of been right at home there.
