GameStop Manager refuses to sell games to kids with bad grades

If you're going to a black tie restaraunt, you wear appropriate clothes. If you're going to the mall, you wear appropriate clothes. However, the guy doesn't own the store, otherwise he couldn't have been suspended. It's kinda important to remember that without customers, capitalism means next to nothing.

Read my first post in this thread. That's exactly what I wrote. Since the store isn't his he should do what the store owner tells him to.

But if you open your own store, what you do in it is your own business. It could definately be stupid to refuse to sell customers but if it is so, he'll be only hurting himself.

I find it a very good thing that someone chooses to do something not for personal gain, but because he thinks it is right. Blindly following orders and doing thing you think are wrong because someone tells you to are not exactly the marks of the perfect utopian society where everyone is happy. Moral superiority does not bring food on the table, but then again, organized crime does, and most social philosophers have been against that.

You thought of that?

Not true, I never said what he should do, and I never said I want him to be like me. The reason this board is enjoyable is we all have different opinions. I just said people like him scare me because he is in a sales job and he is holding his product hostage unless the kids do what he says. If he wants to pass on moral code go right ahead but get a job that puts it in the open.
