DEVIL’S ADVOCATE

· Could the restaurant use Facebook in a positive way to stand up for their employees and encourage generous tipping?

· Should she have been allowed to apologize on Facebook?

· She was trying to point out a cheap customer!

· Did Ashley really sign a binding contract?

· This situation seems like a violation of personal rights.
