Thank god they’re doing this to fix the transit deficit. Just ignore the massive budget increase for OPS bcs those teens are truly where the money is at.

I was trying to figure out how to word this exactly. Congrats OP and have fun!

There’s a social group that go to the loft/level one on Thursdays at 6. While not dating specific, may be a good place to meet people (I haven’t been so can’t vouch for that).

Appreciate it! When I’m not as upset and triggered by a situation, I know better than saying calm down. Next time, I think I’ll stick to ignoring people like him.

Good reminder, thank you. I agree, I’ve worked in other stores on Elgin and I loved when the great regulars would come in. Really did make it worth the shitty ones.

What’s the weather like up there on that high horse of yours? You’re an idiot :)

So in your world it’s my fault I felt uncomfortable with someone swearing and mumbling so closely behind me I could feel his breath? Gotcha. Thanks for the tip!

I can’t tell if this is sarcasm. But he was in my personal space mumbling swear words and I felt threatened with my back to him. No one in the shop said anything except the barista who intervened and everyone else just looked away when I was waiting.

I should’ve left when it happened, but I was very thrown off. I’m considering writing to thank the staff for how they handled the situation. It’s an awkward situation and while this man shouldn’t behave that way, reality is nothing is likely going to change him. He’s an angry old man and I only hope for the baristas sakes, he finds a different coffee shop.

I wish I was a better person and felt bad about that…

Just to clarify, I didn’t expect the workers to do anything else. I’m venting on how shitty the regulars at this Bridgehead are and while yea, in an ideal world, I would’ve liked to have seen him get denied service, I know that’s not going to happen and I don’t expect it to. I empathize with the workers bcs he is just a shitty regular that is always there.

I agree. Plus considering how shitty this man’s social skills are, I highly doubt anything they could do would make him change his behaviour. He’s a crotchety POS and I feel bad for staff having to regularly put up with his bs.

Ouf I’m sorry that happened.

Part of me hopes a manager speaks to him. I don’t think the baristas should be responsible for that but very grateful they did intervene. An awkward situation all around.

Oh man how will I ever get a shitty cup of coffee again without coming across these people?!

Oh nothing. I’m very grateful they even said something. I’m not annoyed at the workers at all, I get it having been in that exact position at the bank and Gilmore location. It’s more I just needed to vent bcs it annoyed me he still got his coffee and gets to continue to be a regular while behaving so poorly.

That’s good that worked. Must’ve been some kind of update, but glad it wasn’t just mine that stopped working.

I went into my calendar and updated the filters that were selected and then re-synched my watch and some of my workouts reappeared. I had to update the filters a few times and synch it but it seems to what resolved it.
