I don't know about a transvestite suing Hooters, but the Dept. of Labor did about 5 or 6 years ago on behalf of males who were refused a Hooters waitress job.

Hooters ran the most hysterically funny ad I have ever seen -- a dark complexioned kinda guy, wearing falsies and a Hooters T-shirt. He had a dark mustache, two days beard growth and was smoking a cigar.

Caption was [or words to the effect]: "Get Real!"

DoL dropped the lawsuit within a day or so of the ad appearing. I have a copy of it somewhere around here, but can't locate it just now.

Surely, some FReeper has a compuyter FRiendly copy of that ad and can post it for us.

Right - I was being facetious, it's actually a terrible solution, but it's one redeeming value is that it tells you something about the driver.

Pretty close. The caption sign carried by the PseudoHooter was *get a grip.*

Thanks, archy.

If you attempted to post the ad, for whatever reason, it did not show up. Hope you can post it -- it was a howler!

Refuse a fare, go to the back of the line!

What will happen with this is that Muslim cabbies who are happy to take any passenger will be ostracized by others and possibly harassed out of a job. All because of this nonsense. And I can't believe that some Muslim clergy hasn't ruled that it's OK for cabbies to drive people who possess alcohol. It isn't the cabby's booze, and the cabby isn't carrying it.
