do it all the damn time.
a few days later i met someone whom i plan to work with at starbucks...first time meeting...most of my business meetings are at a starbucks....
they got wifi,
not terribly expensive,
neutral enough menu,
tables with plugs near by to plug in your laptop.
easy to find....folks know where the damn starbucks is
i have a thing about being on time so most of the time i am there before the other person and am waiting...
Does that make me a trespasser?
CALL THE COPS, THAT OLD FAT WHITE GUY IN THE CORNER HASN'T ORDERED ANYTHING
i often do not order til the other person arrives cause i like to buy their coffee....breaks the ice as it were.
If i already have my coffee, most often the other person will decline my invite and order their own.....
Next time in a starbucks...look around...there is a fuck load of folks with paperwork out doing business.
if i walked into the place and saw the potential client i was suppposed to meet had just been arrested while waiting on me i would be mortified.
