Popular Post richard_smith237 Posted September 1, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 1, 2023 25 minutes ago, patman30 said: my point was more, just mind your own business and enjoy your own coffee its not your business and its not something to cry about online if they spoilt your atmosphere, then just go elsewhere I also disagree with this. It is the Ops business, a table of people came in to the cafe and negatively disturbed his experience - that directly impacts him. - Why should the Op ignore something that directly impacts him ? - If the were smoking inside, would you ignore it and just go elsewhere ? Taking stinky food into another establishment which sells food, opening it and then eating it is very poor form and the staff should have dealt with that sitaution there and then. The issue here as that people behaved poorly, the staff ignored it... and the Op decided to make a thread about it. The Op actually hasn't done anything wrong at all here... he didn't escalate a situation by getting involved etc where as others may well have spoke up and got involved in an argument. The op is getting attacked by people with some rather poorly thought out and stupid arguments. 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shouldn't that approach be the least we all expect from a business which serves the public ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
