I have read some of Marx's works.

However the original definition of the proletariat, would not include a lot of people. What about the Salariat? They are not classified as proletariat.

Yes. Not because of the uniform and strict hiring policy, no.

It's degrading to women because the food there is awful.

Please, I refuse to respond to a post which is wrong. I never refered to the "proletariat", I refered to workers in my post.
"The salariat is the class of workers who are salaried and get regular, non-hourly pay checks." therefore part of the working class. According to Marx, the proletariat was supposed to be the spearhead of the workers' revolution, this however doesn't mean that other forms of employment would be discriminated.

Where did you source that quote from?

EDIT: I searched on the Marx and Engels Internet Archive, and it showed no results for that quote.

Roan has an idea for a restaurant, partnered with Hooters, that features scantily clad waiters wearing tool belts, called "The Toolshed".

Equality and all that.

No, there was also the peasantry and other forms of work as well. Simply, during Marx's time "salariat" was not even a term, that's why he never used it, otherwise he would have no problem.
It's a shame that I, a shameless greedy capitalist pig, know more about your ideology than you do.

Anyway, this is not the thread for such a discussion, so I'm not going to respond to any further posts regarding that matter.

How is it a lesser evil than working for a regular restaurant where they don't base hiring decisions on cup size?

It amuses me how you deleted your post because you realised that salariat has been coined during the early 20th century.
And that Marx is not Russian.

haha good one.

I think we are all in agreement that either male or female establishment the outcome would be the same.A stable job serving bad food and keeping their employees relatively safe.Unlike others opinions it is better then other more nefarious industries that prey on young men and women.

Also I got some good ides for restaurant should I win the lotto.

Tips are split up amongst all employees at other restaurants and if I am not mistaken the girls keep all the tips they earn at Hooter's.I'll admit it isn't perfect,but it is much better the being a topless maid,stripper,porn star or prostitute.I said lesser of those evils.I mean a regular restaurant isn't evil unless it makes you work long hours with no over time and makes you wear those stupid buttons.Flare I believe they are called...

Sexual harassment by managers is despicable and actions should be taken about it, but it is not a hooters' specific problem.
