Changing direction on Coffee
I can’t take Starbucks any longer! Mind you I’ve been a long-time customer going back to when it was only a Seattle place. A place where I could go to read a bit, do a little laptop work or make a few phone calls.
But NOT ANYMORE!
They’re so interested in selling music that they’ve installed speakers in every corner of the place (all the SBX’s in my area anyway) and they won’t turn the volume down. You can’t make a phone call and you can absolutely forget about settling into a good magazine or on-line read with their blasted noise coming at you from all corners, even from speakers outside the building!
Its no longer a warm soothing place to linger. Rather a cacophony echo chamber with average coffee.
So I’m changing my velocity heading somewhere else. For good. Unless I’m desperate.
