Oh cut the drama EE. I'm sorry you feel sad. You're a pretty smart guy and you know quite well that most people aren't going to be served thinking that because of this thread they are going to think attractive servers are bad at their job.
As I mentioned before, this is based off my experience and I don't think I'm alone in this either.
Yes, I do live in Calgary. I'd rather not derail this, but since you asked, Calgary is a pretty unattractive city overall, for the most part, a bunch of 6's and 7's who think they are a 10.
In Calgary, service in my opinion is pretty bad overall, especially when compared to other places around the world (which is also somewhat to be expected, when a server in the US might make 2.50 an hour + tips, yet we pay a much high base wage for servers and they expect a similar percentage), so the average server in the US is typically more concerned about their own financial health than the one here is.
But yes EE, when you restrict your hiring to 5% of the city that meets your criteria, and there is a great deal of competition trying to pluck from the same pool of people, then yes, the quality of candidate that comes from that pool diminishes.
