Even if she could (and I know she can't) find a reason to restrict her hiring to female employees, I guess a highly capable individual with coffee shop/fast food experience, an efficient and pleasing customer service skillset and excellent references who is a bit of a wide-body and closer to fifty than twenty is not sufficiently perky?

I think Mary Lou's needs to change their style. No one goes there for the "girls." They go there because the coffee doesn't taste like lukewarm acid, as it does in many other coffee shops.
