New trend in Northwest espresso: embarrassingly dressed baristas
Drill King:
Why do people assume that girls that are scantily clad are embarrassed? A lot of girls are totally comfortable in wearing something they might wear at the beach. Not all girls make the drastic difference between,"Oh I am wearing this at the beach/attract a guy/it's hot" vs "Oh hey I like tips and this is a good way to do it without anyone being taken advantage of"
Really, unless a girl is forced into it(which in most first nation countries is a pretty big feat) the only people being taken advantage of are the people who would drink poor coffee(I am not sure of this, it might be good coffee!) to look at what you can see on a beach.
Caleb:
I don't drink coffee much.
As for scantily clad ladies...
...well I don't get enough of those in my life. But I don't feel like I should have to pay for it. That includes buying products to be near such females. If other people want to be naked or buy stuff being sold by nakedness then that's fine. It's just not my scene I guess.

Man, that's nothing. I recently went to a free viewing for a new exhibition at the National Gallery here in London and Corona had very generously provided a large quantity of free bear served by similarly scantily clad ladies. High-brow renaissance art and tits.

--- Quote from: Ptommydski on 12 Jan 2009, 12:21 ---I confess that I would find myself pretty embarrassed as a customer if women were scantily clad whilst serving coffee to me. Not because I find women in a state of undress to be unnatural or inappropriate, just that such a scenario paints me, the customer, into a specific corner which I have no desire to be in. For example, I tend to be nice and polite to pretty much everyone I ever meet, for whatever reason. However, if I was being served coffee by a lady who is scantily clad, people might assume that I was being nice to her because of her attire, rather than because I like other human beings. Thus, I'd sooner just not use such an establishment for fear of being a person who goes to a coffee store to ogle women in their underwear.
It's weird but I feel like as I get older, the more I appreciate privacy and discretion as being an integral part of sexuality.
--- End quote ---
I would feel pretty much the same way. I like the people who serve coffee at my local coffee shop, and I enjoy being friendly with them. I would be uncomfortable with the implication that the reason I was being friendly was because they weren't wearing much clothing. I don't think it does provide the best atmosphere. It adds a dimension to the atmosphere that I don't particularly want with my coffee.
Nodaisho:
I agree with Tommy here, as well. I tend to be polite towards everyone, but I hate it when someone tries to get me to do something by being "charming", it feels like an insult to me. I think that would extend to the skimpily-clad attempt to get tips.
And, of course, the only time I go to a coffee shop, it is with some friends, all of which happen to be girls. Going there would be extremely awkward like that, especially as I don't trust my eyes to do what I tell them.
Fun fact: I checked five times to make sure that the word tips in the first paragraph wasn't tits.
