on why we close at eleven.

so a lot of customers at starbucks complain about the fact that we don’t stay open late enough. beside the fact that it is often these people who buy a drink at 9 and then sit chatting until we close, and the fact that as employees we all want to get home, is the fact that the later we stay open the drunker and rowdier people are more likely to be.

take for instance last night. (just as a note, this is not a story that questions the safety of staying open late, but rather just the shocking-ness of the middle-aged on a thursday night) anyway, back to my story, i went out to bring in the patio furniture at around 10.45 and no sooner had a walked out the door than a fire truck pulls up at the lights in front of starbucks. all of a sudden i here a loud ‘woooo!’ from the patio area and women who is in the 45-55 age range, wearing a long flowing black dress, bends over a chair with her ass towards the firemen. (i was going to say firefighers but i’m hoping they were all men to reduce her embarrassment ever-so-slightly) so she bends over and whips up her dress exposing her only-thong-covered bottom to the whole street. i’m pretty sure she must of been drunk. actually i sincerely hope she was drunk because honestly i’m getting tired of women getting out their bits in front of me, and if they’re sober it seems much worse.

i do so very sincerely hope that this is the last time i have to post about women getting their private parts out in public.
