\nIt is often exhausting to work in a restaurant, bar or coffee shop cafe. The pay isn\u2019t always great though the working hours are long. In addition, the customers can be rude and they don\u2019t often appreciate your hard work.
\nThat was what Austin Simms expererienced when working at his coffee shop. The level of rudeness displayed by impolite customers became too much. So he decided to give his customers a lesson in manners \u2014 by putting up a sign outside his cafe.<\/p>\n
Now, his clever trick to get customers to be more friendly has captured worldwide attention.
\nAustin\u2019s solution was simple: the politer the customer, the less they pay for coffee. The sign outside the cafe says:
\n\u201cSmall Coffee\u201d
\n$5
\n\u201cSmall Coffee, please.\u201d
\n$3
\n\u201cHello, one small coffee, please.\u201d
\n$1.75<\/p>\n
The coffee shop\u2019s new prices remind customers that the baristas behind the counter are human beings with feelings.
\n\u201cI decided because I need to solve all the injustices of the world to start charging more for people who didn\u2019t take the time to say hello and connect and realize we\u2019re all people behind the counter,\u201d Simms said.
\nIt only took a day before Austin\u2019s new prices became world news \u2014 with journalists and photographers flocking to the cafe.
\nAustin never expected his new prices to attract such widespread attention \u2014 he just wanted his customers to be a little nicer.<\/p>\n
