An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:
I am writing to all you students explaining why it is not okay to study in Starbucks or Coffee Bean. The two most popular coffee chains in Singapore, as we all know.
I will not bother to type them in point form so, follow me as I rant out my frustrations and I pretty much know they are undeniable. Argue and disagree with me all you want, but it will not change the fact that students are the most annoying customers you can ever get.
Just because you are a paying customer does not necessarily mean you are entitled to a table for hours. I appreciate you being assiduous in your studies but do it at the right places. No, there is no wrong to study if you’re buying a drink or two every few hours but do take note that you are NOT the only customer. Snap out of your oblivious world. We have the non-extended customers, searching for seats, asking the baristas for help, just to have a nice warm cup of coffee and there you are, just … studying. Urgh!
It sure as hell does not take a lot of effort to be considerate towards other paying customers. Studying in cafes will not only disrupt the business itself but will also affect the baristas on duty. Why? That is one good question. Baristas, they are the ones who have to deal with complains every single day. As if their work load isn’t tiring enough? Come on!
Students should stop studying in cafes! (Full)
