HOOTERS is known primarily for the model-like women who work there.

A former employee has shared her experience working at the restaurant chain, including the rules about staff appearance.

TikTok user Awasanneh, who used to work as a Hooters girl, shared some of her behind-the-scenes insights.

Awa claimed that she was hired as a model when working at Hooters, so her appearance was part of her job.

"You’re hired as a model, so if you were ever to get fat or stop taking care of yourself, they can fire you," she said.

The former employee also said that her managers escorted staff to their cars at the end of the night.

"We weren’t allowed to leave the store by ourselves, without a manager walking us all out at the same time and watching us get into our cars," the TikTok said.

She explained: "[The measure was] just for safety reasons because people do stalk Hooters girls."

Awa also advised prospective Hooters employees to accept that they will be objectified by customers.

"You are going to get objectified. I mean let’s be honest, you’re working at a Hooters, be prepared for that," she said.
