Take-a-number plus seating is not really a new idea, but it should be done everywhere. And all waiting areas should have coffee, tea, water, and juice. |
|
| |
Coffee is not everyone's cup of tea, so to speak, and where does it stop? When do the patrons demand cookies, muffins, fruit, sandwiches, soup... |
|
| |
"I gave up my lunch break for this???" |

If you are so impatient that you can't wait your turn for service don't blame the system. Blame the people who made the system the way it is - the users. I have experienced wait systems that are appointment-based, and while they are marvelous when they work, there will always ALWAYS be that minority of users who abuse it. I'm talking the lazy, unprepared, entitled, self-centred, obnoxious and egregiously vocal users who arrive when it is convenient for them and expect, nay DEMAND that they be served immediately or someone must be fired. |

And taking the coffee into the room? Have you not seen how clumsy people are? How much of a mess there is dealing with the spills, the waste, the random coffee cup that is discovered three weeks later hidden behind the fake plant over in the corner? After everything I have seen I strongly believe drinking coffee makes people stupid. |

Whew! I feel so much better getting that off my chest!! Thanks for that, but your idea still gets the fishbone. |

Could be considered from the opposite end, a coffee shop franchise themed as a waiting room |

|
| |
Wow, that's the worst coffee shop theme idea ever. |
|
| |
Like this but more specific: DMV inspired. (That's the Department Of Motor Vehicles for you foreigners.) |
|
| |
1- Take a number, sit in uncomfortable plastic seats. |
|
| |
2- When called, explain to perturbed counter person that you'd like a large medium roast with... |
|
| |
3- "SIR!" Get rudely cut off, be told this is the line for tea, and that you need to fill out form 203958-T to order coffee, the forms are on that table over there... "NEXT!" |
|
| |
4- When you see there are no form 203958-Ts cut to the front of the line where the counter person says "SIR! SIR!" "But there are no form..." "SIR! You need to wait in line like everybody else." |
|
| |
5- When you finally get your coffee it's tea and it's cold and there are lipstick marks on the cup. |
|
| |
The name of the coffee shop is "Your Tax Dollars At Work Coffee Shop" |
|
| |
Can the air conditioner be broken? |
|
| |
Of course. Everybody fanning themselves with their 203958-T forms. |
|
| |
Coffee tends to make people more impatient. Maybe an opium den queue would work better. |
