Implied contract?? What the heck is that? Which law school did you attend? There is no such thing as an implied contract. Waiters are independent contractors?? Waiters are hired flunkies doing low-end labor, nothing more.
Marketplace relationship? I enter a restaurant my relationship is with the owners. Their employees are of no concern to me.
I haven't seen such elitism since John Kerry said that you needed a good education so you didn't end up in the Army and get stuck in Iraq.
I did not go to law school.
In United States law, an implied-in-fact contract (a form of implied contract) is a contract agreed by non-verbal conduct, rather than by explicit words. The United States Supreme Court defined this in its decision Baltimore & Ohio R. Co. v. United States, 261 U.S. 592 (1923).[1]. That decision described "an agreement 'implied in fact'" as "founded upon a meeting of minds, which, although not embodied in an express contract, is inferred, as a fact, from conduct of the parties showing, in the light of the surrounding circumstances, their tacit understanding."
Such contracts are formed when one party accepts something of value knowing that the other party expects compensation. For example by visiting a doctor, a patient agrees to pay a fair price for the service. If he refuses to pay after being examined, he has breached a contract implied in fact.
I used it as a turn of phrase. If it somehow does not correspond to something within the glorious history of Canadian jurisprudence, please accept my apologies.

Well, this whole thread is about their employees, so I think you're just wasting your time here.
