Restaurant Uses Twitter To Shame People

Have you ever missed a dinner date or cancelled a reservation? Well, you'd better not eat at this restaurant or the company will try to shame you by tweeting your full name for not showing up. "Invariably, the assh*les who decide to no-show, or cancel 20 minutes before their reservation (because one of their friends made a reservation somewhere else) ruin restaurants (as a whole) for the people who make a reservation and do their best to honor it," writes the owner." Either restaurants are forced to overbook and make the guests (that actually showed up) wait, or they do what we do, turn away guests for some prime-time slots because they're booked, and then have empty tables."
