You know time and time again I receive friend requests from Businesses and I am always torn, because often I do want to be friends with the owner or whoever might be running the account, but at the same time I feel like I am encouraging someone in a self-destructive behavior, it is like saying to your friend, sure fruitcakes are coming back into fashion, you should send them to all your client.
