I just wouldn't go to that restaurant. Plenty of other places to go.

I'm almost certain this has been tried before multiple times and always ended badly. I see no reason to think it would be different now.

Not knowing the law in the US I guess it is fully legal. Given that there is no union or chain responsibility in the supply chain or similar to GDPR in EU you guys are fucked until someone abuse the system one way or another.

On the other hand it shows work from home is feasible even with these kind of things.

hope your job never gets offshored

you: "Yeah I lost my job, but hey, now someone in India gets to earn a living...can you help me prop up my cardboard box to keep the rain out? thanks."
