It is certainly inappropriate. You applied for a job, not a date. Save those texts. See if you can find out who his District manager is and contact him or her and complain about the manager. Becoming employed should never be contingent upon going to dinner with the manager nor being subjected to condescending names. If you are not happy with the response, contact an employment law attorney to discuss what your options may be.

I currently have two sexual harassment suits on behalf of clients. From what you have said, the manager appears to have crossed the line. You likely have been sesually harassed by the completely inappropriate behavior of the person that "hired" you.

is that sexual harassment...?

Yes, and even if you have no evidence other than your word vs his, you can file a complaint with the company HR. If you do have evidence, you could file legal action as well. If serious about doing so, feel free to contact me. I've been doing these cases for over 20 years. .
