After this episodes initial airing, the Bikinis locations in Arlington and Richardson, Texas along with 10 other company-owned locations still in operation were shuttered and rebranded by parent company ATX Brands as Gino's East Pizzeria. By the end of 2015, all Bikinis stores except the downtown Austin location ceased operating under that brand, which closed in 2018. :)
so at its biggest the chain had 15 restaurants, says all we need to know about his business acumen and values - thinks he's Hugh Hefer but is 40 years too late. I see the brand ceased operations in Dec 2018 and his trademark is now so unacceptable it is classed as "unrevivable" by the trademark office. Yes he spotted a gap in the market at the right time, and hopefully made a lot of money for himself following the American dream, but what a dinosaur. Interesting his "global" ambitions never made it much beyond Texas. Thankfully it appears the rest of the USA had some "PC awareness" even then, after all Grace nailed it: "This is Texas, the bigger the better, ("they" do all the talking). I hope she has gone on to something a bit more constructive than thinking of herself that way.
this is basically the plot of every episode. The boss is shocked how their slaves are struggling with the crumbs they get, so to feel good about himself he throws some money at them.
why on earth wearing a bikini top in a restaurant??? The owner of Bikinis needs to have more respect for women. Sad to make women dress half-naked in pubic places to boost business.
you do realise this programme was filmed in 2012. Times have changed, so your attitude today was not the case back then. (The company closed down in 2018 anyway)
plenty of places have dress codes as part of contract of employment, so no, not crazy. The brand was about bringing in customers led by their dicks to see bikinis.
how low does a woman have to sink to serve drinks and food in a bar in a bikini? This activity is also determined in the resume for the next job application. I better love the dirndls at the Oktoberfest in Munich

Would Men wear a Speedo at that restaraunt to get a job? I noticed at least ONE waitress that said she held down Three Jobs at the same time!

Only a man thinks About such a thing
we women should demand that men are also allowed to work half-naked as waiters - let's see what the husbands of the female guests will say.

Being half naked in a restaurant is sooooo unsanitary 😮 gross!
fireď for not wearing a bikini top . crazy
Well, the restaurant's called "Bikinis," so it's not that crazy.
plenty of places have dress codes as part of contract of employment, so no, not crazy.
The brand was about bringing in customers led by their dicks to see bikinis.
What motivates women to work here? Just curious, is it tips?
