The girls are breathalyzed before they leave the club each night. She left without her supervisor knowing.

[x] Frivolous

Case closed.

I have to say that I cannot decide if it's frivolous or not. At first blush, I agreed with your position. But, if you think about the fact that this woman is attempting to make a living, albeit not in the most respectable way, and her employer is telling her to party it up so they can sell liquor and make more money, don't they have some responsibility. Of course, she could refuse and be fired, but in an "at will" state, what grounds would she have to hold them liable for terminating her? I lean your way, but it is not as clear cut to me.

Oh, all knowing Steve. What would we do without you? Because businesses and supervisors NEVER make mistakes, nor is it an unethical buisness practice to encourage employees to drink.

I personally hope they are held accountable as I've known girls that have worked at this club and they do exploit them for every dime they can get from them without caring about them at all. I've watched them USE girls at a very young age for advertising, paying them zero $ (sign here, and the guys will come in asking for you and you will make big bucks). Take a look at their website. These girls earned zero $ for several years worth of advertising thus far. When asked to be removed by one, they refused. They milk these girls for every penny, and I hope Ms. Hamaker is able to collect some $ to assist with her medical situation. People don't truly understand these thugs are out there and running businesses, taking advantage of the desperate and needy.
