Smith received positive performance evaluations and was promoted to shift\u00a0 supervisor. But at her last evaluation, the 5&#8217;8&#8243; Smith says she was advised to lose weight and join a gym,\u00a0 despite dropping from 145 pounds, when hired, to her current 132.5 pounds. She says she was given 30\u00a0 days to lose more weight, and when she didn\u2019t, was fired. Says Smith, \u201cI had these two women from\u00a0 [Hooters headquarters in] Atlanta telling me I had 30 days to make an improvement, and I didn\u2019t know\u00a0 what I\u2019m supposed to improve. I was proud of myself, working out the last months, losing 10 pounds to\u00a0 get ready for my summer body. For that (phone call) to happen, it was almost a slap in the face.\u201d\u00a0 Convery, who is 4&#8217;11&#8221; and weighs 115 pounds, says she was also placed on weight probation and then\u00a0 fired, despite losing 15 lbs.\u00a0 \u00a0 Hooters Response\u00a0 In a written statement, Hooters said, \u201cNo employee in Michigan has been asked to lose weight and \u2026\u00a0 the company does not enforce any weight requirement.\u201d Company spokesperson Mike McNeil said,\u00a0 \u201cWe never mentioned weight. We never mentioned pounds. We never mentioned scales.\u201d But, he said,\u00a0 \u201cWe have an image to uphold. We\u2019ve been upholding it for 27 years. Hopefully, we&#8217;ll be doing it for\u00a0 another 27 years.\u201d Moreover, he said, \u201cYou\u2019re hired based on the image you have when you walk\u00a0 through the door.\u201d\u00a0 \u00a0 Additional Information\u00a0 Discrimination is treating people differently in hiring, firing, promotion, training, and compensation\u00a0 decisions because of nonperformance related criteria.\u00a0\u00a0For example, age discrimination is treating\u00a0 people differently because of their age.\u00a0\u00a0Age discrimination typically occurs when older workers are fired\u00a0 because of their age, or not hired, promoted, trained, or paid because of their age, rather than their\u00a0 potential or performance.\u00a0\u00a0The chapter discusses age, sex, race and ethnicity, and disability\u2010based
