Why Coffee Is Better Than Men

A cup of coffee looks good in the morning. You won't fall asleep after a cup of coffee. You can always warm coffee up. Coffee comes with endless refills. You won't get arrested for ordering coffee at 3 AM. Coffee is out of your system by tomorrow morning. You can make coffee as sweet as you want. Coffee smells and tastes good. You can turn the pot on, leave the room, and it'll be hot when you get back. They have coffee at police stations. You can always ditch a bad cup of coffee. No matter how ugly you are, you can always get a cup of coffee. A big cup or small cup? It doesn't matter. You can have an intelligent conversation with coffee. Coffee is ready in 15 minutes or less. Coffee doesn't take up half your bed. Coffee doesn't mind if you wake up at 3 AM and decide to have a cup. INSTANT COFFEE!
Yeah...this one has women written all over it. Nice title change. :)

Posted by ericwuchina on 2007-12-26 00:31:58      Post Subject:

My point to this topic, it is easy to do (have hot water bypassing the coffee cake in piston), but it will costup the machine, because it need powerful bolier and some other relative update. Now in auto coffee maker industry, there are lots of machine have two boilers, they can provide continuesly hot water with small temperature lost.

View entire thread: What to do about campers and electric...

Posted by Davec on 2008-03-15 15:11:31      Post Subject: Re: What to do about campers and electric...


1) Should I let them plug into an outlet?
2) How do others handle this?
3) Does anyone limit the time someone is in their cafe?
4) Am I being unreasonable?

1. No, as you could be considered liable for any damage to their equipment or injury to their person allowing them to use your electrical outlet. e.g. a voltage surge damages their equipment...it's your fault! they electrocute themselves....your insurance company doesn't want to pay out. etc..

Simply have a sign that says for Health & Safety and Insurance reasons, we cannot allow people to plug in their own personal appliances into our electrical system. if then someone plugs in, politely point out the policy and ask them to unplug their appliance, if they won't politely ask them to leave the premises.

2. I have seen signs like this in business premises. I also think it's reasonable to expect someone not to camp for hours, usually this is achieved by increasing the discomfort level e.g. Keep approaching them asking if they would like another coffee, cake, sandwich etc.. If it gets busy and they are occupying a table, ask them if they could move to a stool at the coffee bar to make room for a group, clear away the free papers, keep washing their table etc..

3. on a practical level it's a difficult thing to do

4. Nope and if ever I need a place to sleep....I shall come and buy one coffee, you do allow sleeping bags at the table don't you? :wink:

P.S.

Perhaps you need some of these
