Sheesh… At least at the Core Club, they give you Purell Wipes after!

SoHo House last week, a couple spotted having sex in the pool in front of the other guests. Classy.
Ugh. So did SH ban the couple? Doubtful. They’re "members." I always preach that it’s always about the customer, right? But… When does a company, (be it SH or McDonalds) take the unpopular step of saying "OK, this will lessen our cool points, but in this case, the customer isn’t always right? We’ll let you get away with a lot, but you can’t cross "this" line?"
Different lines at different places, I suppose. Which is fine – just curious which companies actually have the guts to implement specific policies when those lines are crossed.
Ew. Besides – I’ve been in that pool. It’s small! Double Ew!

A restaurant in Atlanta actually asked a couple to take their whining, out of control children (which the couple let run all around the restaurant) and leave. The wife then wrote to complain in the editorial pages of the local rag and was immediately pounced on for being the spoiled, I think I’m better than you and who do you think you are kicking me out of a restaurant because I have money person that she was. Patrons are fed up with people who feel entitled to take their kids to a restaurant and let them loose, allow their kids to scream out at the top of their lungs and then ignore those screams or let their children throw food everywhere. I sent kudos to the restaurant manager!

But are we absolutely sure this didn’t come from SoHo House’s PR? It worked wonders for CakeNYC.
