Jeddah branches of American fast-food chain, Hardee’s, recently began hiring female employees.
Of course, the women have to be fully covered including their faces and hands.
Saudi Sheikh Ali Al Mutairi says the new female employees at the Jeddah Hardees are fast-food workers during the day, hookers at night.
Al-Arabiya reported:
A Twitter post ignited a battle of arguments over a post tweeted by a Saudi cleric describing the newly-introduced waitress at a fast-food restaurant in Saudi Arabia as “prostitutes”.
The debated topic sparked when Saudi Sheikh Ali Al Mutairi reacted to a number of Saudi tweets calling for the boycott of popular American fast-food restaurant, Hardee’s.
The reason?
The burger chain had recently allowed women – for the first time – to work as waitresses at their branches across the coastal city of Jeddah.
“At the beginning of her shift she’s a waitress. When her shift ends she becomes a prostitute. The more she’s around men the easier it becomes to get closer to her”, tweeted Al-Mutairi, whose twitter account (@4aalmutairi ) boasts more than 5,000 followers.
