A Dunkin’ Donuts location in Brooklyn has taken down a help wanted sign that incited outrage for specifying “Male staff only.”

According to neighborhood news outlet Ditmas Park Corner, it all began when an angry 8-year-old saw the sign and insisted her father take a photograph of the discriminatory posting, which violates employment law. Dunkin’ Donuts responded to the complaint in a statement to Ditmas Park Corner:

The franchisee informs us this sign has been taken down, it does not reflect his policies and he has followed up with his employees. Dunkin’ Donuts restaurants are independently owned and operated by individual franchisees who are solely responsible for making their own business decisions, including employment decisions such as hiring practices. Franchisees are required to comply with all applicable state, federal and local laws, including but not limited to those governing hiring and non-discrimination.

Women: You, too, can serve Coolattas this summer in Brooklyn.
