Headlines are often confusing. That's why it's always a good idea to read at least the first sentence of the article. It can't be that hard.Having a little "cranky-pants" day?

If the company says she needs to wear it, then she needs to wear it. Period. Exactly.

This woman is probably 50 years old, or more. She's mixing drinks at a bar, not trying to win a beauty contest. Then she can mix drinks at some bar in the dark shadows underneath elevated subway tracks, not at a bright, glitzy casino, where looks are everything and three-quarters of the entertainment.
Sorry, but ugly is in the eye of the beholder.
And she's got it in spades.
Not every woman must be beautiful.
If they work at a casino, they should be. If I'm going to be losing all my bread, at least give me something sweet to look at . . . so I don't feel bad about losing all my bread.

She was trying to make the bar more money by making the customers drink her pretty.

Yep unfortunately it's true. Is this lady gay? I suppose if Lamba is defending her one can assume so. I know a lot of gay women who are very nice people and have become accustomed to be very individualistic as far as appearance is concerned.

I was wondering if it were a male instead, if you'd be so gun-ho about it if the requirement would have been for him to get...hair transplant or a hair piece!

So the government, not the business owner, should get to set the dress code?

For all I know, she's a very nice person. Looks aren't everything. In this particular instance (she's not young) attitude is everything. I'd much rather have a waitress or bartender who's 45yo, plain looking, but genuinely friendly and who truly understands service, than a 20yo bimbo with nice legs, big honkers, and a gigantic chip on her shoulder.
But I don't run Harrah's ...

All the make up in the world ain't gonna help THAT!!! True.
A genuine smile, and a better hairdo, though, would work wonders.

Define "wear make-up". Mascara makes my eyes water so lipstick and some blush is it for me. How much is "wear make-up"? I'd like to see the written policy.

That would be defined by the employer: The one who sets the rules of employment.
If the employee does not like the rules, the employee can look for another job.

Maybe her religion doesn't allow her to wear make-up? Maybe she is allergic to it? Not. Did you read the article?
To: Quilla
I've been using it for about two years now and I LOVE IT. HLL turned me on to it and I won't ever go back to regular make-up.
I tried to get my daughter to try it but she never seemed interested until she saw the commercial. I sent her the starter kit for Christmas and she called me all excited, saying she can't believe how great it is. Now she wants more for her birthday.
It does cover extremely well, it won't cover up a huge festering zit (what will?) but redness and scars practically fade away.
Go ahead and get some, you won't regret it!
