Why not take ALL the reservations, and then force EVERY customer that wants to eat there to buy them from you?
Because you're fucking up the social contract that restaurants have with their customers.
- randallsquared 17y agoI do feel that it was sketchy to ignore the rules the way these teams did. However, the restaurants do not have a contract with their customers. If they want to have a contract with their customers, they can, but calling their expectations of what customers will do a "contract" dilutes the term.
- gottlieb 17y agoActually, 'Social Contract' is a term on its own, that is many things to many people, but in general, it is the idea that societies have unspoken rules in order to maintain order. I do not think he is diluting the term, as it (or at least the concept) has been around for quite some time.
