It was a costly mis-step that could have been avoided with a little more careful tact in approach.<br /><br />I know in my own case that when we'd be working away on patches we would regularly get up for more coffees/tea and cookies - never did we stay for long after we had our last order.icbtshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04070633252162860464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8119361957970651148.post-68988818664717837522012-03-09T21:53:19.929-03:302012-03-09T21:53:19.929-03:30The letter was so distasteful.

I have no problem with management getting fed up with people who buy 1 coffee and regularly extend their stays past the life of their drink. But really, there are more tactful approaches.TLCoderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15492353975495523718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8119361957970651148.post-43001254202053495002012-03-09T16:41:40.763-03:302012-03-09T16:41:40.763-03:30I'm pretty sure the French Cafe technique was ...I'm pretty sure the <a href="https://www.samba.org/ftp/tridge/misc/french_cafe.txt" rel="nofollow">French Cafe technique</a> was first developed at a cafe.. although that may not be as accurate as I'd like to believe.jedixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00060703166265119119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8119361957970651148.post-74510850280032542402012-03-09T16:00:33.862-03:302012-03-09T16:00:33.862-03:30I love hanging out at Chatters downtown, especiall...I love hanging out at Chatters downtown, especially when I need to get some work done. Gets me away from all the usual distractions in my home office, and I actually get some real work done. Whenever I'm having trouble figuring out an issue while developing an Android app, I go there, and it usually gets solved by my second mug.duendehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05024529346842537235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8119361957970651148.post-8693222670699709322012-03-09T15:37:07.549-03:302012-03-09T15:37:07.549-03:30Apparently, the owners of that coffee shop actuall...Apparently, the owners of that coffee shop actually posted something on Facebook saying that this was not their opinion, but the manager acted on his/her own accord. They have offered students (who bring their ID) a free coffee+pie for the next two weeks as an apology.<br /><br />But as for coffee shop development, a lot of my most productive work is done at coffee shops. And studies are showing that the dynamics of the coffee shop environment may actually encourage creativity.Jason Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11691342796284510567noreply@blogger.com
