perpetual_motionFrom Gawker, complete with a fascinating, terrifying discussion of what homeless people do to public restrooms.
Short version: Starbucks is now calling in the cops for people who show up, suck bandwidth, and don't buy anything. Which led to this:
Well-dressed guy, sitting by the window at a clean table. Two police came in. The conversation went something like this:
Guy: "They told me to buy a cup of coffee or leave. That's pressure. I'm in Starbucks all the time. This isn't a Mom & Pop store."
Police: "It's a business and you have to buy something."
Guy: "Is this any way to run a business? I'm leaving, but I want your badge numbers."
Is that any way to run a business?
Actually, asshole, it is the definition on how to run a business. You put out products and get people to buy them. Oh, and you are also allow to refuse service to people who show 50up for hours and don't buy shit.
Team Starbucks. Also, dude, "badge numbers"? REALLY? Are you in a bad cop show?
