    I wouldn't find it funny either, think about it, you work your ass off to win a car and then you see how your boss cheats you out of it while everyone laughs at you. She won the case though and got her car

    you telling me no one has ever pulled a stunt like that with you?

    i'v had it done to me at work college school loads of places.

    does anyone have a link to the full story? cause the extract gives me the impression it was a competition among the staff by the staff and that one person took it far too serious.

    Here's the link;
    PANAMA CITY, Fla. -- The owner of the local Hooters restaurants says that he will fight a lawsuit brought by a former waitress who alleges that she was promised a new Toyota for winning a beer sales contest but only received a toy Yoda.

    "There was never any agreement on the part of Hooters or any employee to give away a new car," spokesman Stuart Houston said. "Hooters never intended to purposely mislead Miss Berry or any other employee.''

    Jodee Berry, 26, won a contest in early May to see who could sell the most beer in April at the Panama City Beach Hooters. The top-selling waitresses from each restaurant in the area were entered into a drawing and her name was picked.

    She believed she'd won a new car. She was blindfolded and led to the restaurant parking lot, but when the blindfold was removed, she found she was the winner of a toy Yoda -- the little green guy from Star Wars.

    Berry quit the restaurant a week later and filed a lawsuit nearly two weeks ago against Gulf Coast Wings, Inc., the corporate owner of the local Hooters, alleging breach of contract and fraudulent misrepresentation.

    Houston said that he could not respond to specific questions about the suit.
    She worked in Hooters... tells you alot, doesn't it :lol:
