Edit; I looked for the post, I couldn't find it, IM SORRY. There was evidence that she made it up for clout but I don't remember anything more than that.

So it doesn't actually work well when you say that the claim without source was debunked... And you also don't provide source.
Whatchoo talking about, bro?
The meme itself is not even a source.
Like, me saying I had lunch with sasquatch is not something someone needs to rigorously debunk.
I mean I get what you're saying but... One is a hairy apeman people claim to see in the woods, the other is companies doing something unethical and shady to improve their bottom line which there is absolutely precedent for.
Yeah it's unlikely this story is real but your analogy makes no sense
A restaurant stole my wallet once. Prove me wrong.
Why? I believe you.
Hah gotem.
I once had a train run on me by JP Morgan, Goldman and Sachs, and Blackrock.
It's a fucking meme, of course it doesn't have a source. No one in their right mind would trust this as fact anyway.
Damn that restaurant has every angle of this thing figured out
Name of the restaurant should have been included somewhere.
Yeah. I'm curious where this article was posted. It's sounds like clickbait. How would she even figure that out?
This seems suspect.
The woman in question is a tiktok 'influencer' who has the most amazing things hapoen to her - always wiithout evidence.
I think it's just as likely that she's lying to get views and subscribers,
Well that's a great way to have a customer come exactly once to your place and order something small and cheap and then never return out of bad memories and embarrassment. It's also a great way to make a name as "that restaurant where you'll get ghosted" for yourself. For real, either the place would get a bad rep as a cursed place, or (more likely) they lose valuable potential customers because they will never go back to a place where they have been stood up.
Honestly, if a place did that to me, arson would be in their future...
I'd march on in there, and put my arse on everything I could, until everyone knew they were that restaurant where that guy put his arson everything.
You'd almost be saying the restaurant is haunted with the amount of ghosting that happens.
The original creator of the video never named the restaurant and also has since deleted the video. I can't find any explanation or followup from her, so this is likely a fake story.
That’s called fraud, and it violates consent, and it’s therefore not a free market activity, which makes it more of a breakdown of capitalism than the thing itself.
Hey its called catfishing and for some of us it's the only way we can get a date...
Signed - definitely not a restaurant totally super hunky dream guy
Hey super hunky dream guy! You said we should meet for lunch, what was that restaurant you mentioned?
Capitalism doesn't qualify as free market activity then. Capitalism inherently involves treating persons as things. In the firm, the workers are jointly de facto responsible (DFR) for production, but the employer gets sole legal responsibility for the positive and negative results of production. This violates the principle of legal and de facto responsibility matching. DFR isn't de facto transferred, but legal responsibility is. Morally, this is an institutional fraud

This was already debunked awhile ago. it's bullshit. no restaurant, regardless of how poorly they're doing, is going to go through all this work to maybe, just mabye, get $50 out of them.
If it were true, you might buy there once, but it will always leave a bitter taste. So not sure if it would be good advertising if you never go there again.
Man, I saw a guy once getting stood up and I was really sad. The guy was seated, waited, asked for something small, waited more, changed tables to free space for a larger group and then paid and left. I mean, everyone here probably went on dates that got nowhere. Finish the meal, shake hands and leave separate. It’s part of life. But the golden rule is never go into the restaurant alone. Always meet outside l, somewhere else.
Spoken like someone who isn't afraid of potential dates. Lol.
No way I'm meeting privately on a first date with someone I don't know. I'd rather be stood up in the restaurant.
I’d say, do coffee. Cheaper, and easier to leave when any party decides the date is over.
Genuine question - do people seriously have dates in restaurants? I'm 32 and never have I ever been asked on a date in a restaurant. Cafe, sure. But a full on meal with a person? I literally don't know anyone who went on a first/early date in a restaurant. I assumed that's a 90s thing that was nowadays only taking place in movies and sitcoms.
This is really turning up the “companies/corporations are people” shit to 11.
How long till it'll be automated by AI to increase efficiency?
I hate this timeline.
It really says a lot about lemmites that they are treating this as a real thing.
IMHO it says more about humans and social media. People on Facebook and Reddit will believe much more far-fetched stories.
This seems like it is illegal... If it isn't now, it certainly will be as soon as it happens to a politician.
IIRC, this was completely made up.
You could probably ding them for fraud, but as others have said, this is fake.
Whole new meaning to Ghost Kitchen
Picturing an uber "gig economy" job where you're paid to engage on carrying apps, meet at the restaurant and sneak out the bathroom for this same effect on the remaining person. 24 hours later they are then prompted by notification to review and tip.
