Darren Hawker, 40, a former assistant general manager at Yorkdale Moxie's Classic Grill in Toronto, said he was directed by upper management to hire busty and thin applicants, regardless of whether or not they were qualified.

"If I wanted to hire someone the immediate question was about their look, if they had a nice ass or a decent rack," said Hawker, a 24-year restaurant industry veteran. "They had to have a good figure because that's what attracted the men in to come drink."

To be sure no 'uglies' even got an interview, Hawker said he and other front of house staff were directed to screen applicants coming through the door at Moxie's, and mark resumes with a "110" (one-ten) if they were unattractive. It's an internal code for "do not call," he said. (Put a diagonal line between the pair of ones and it forms 'NO'). Similar practices are allegedly in place at other restaurants across the country.
