If you go to the coffee shop, you will certainly see guests who have been sitting for hours with only one drink, and even those who only drink boiled water to occupy their seats! Japanese variety shows recently talked about this issue, although the host complained that such guests should go to civic centers or parks to drink water for free, but the survey found that up to 30% of the people thought there was nothing wrong with this practice! Do you think it is reasonable to drink only boiled water in the coffee shop?

Coffee shop clerk: "A guest came to the store to drink only boiled water and sat for 2 hours!"

Japanese Asahi TV variety show "Yoshimoto Yoshimoto" received a letter from a 23-year-old coffee shop clerk, saying that someone came to the store with a friend to chat and drank only free boiled water. I would like to ask the two hosts, Youji Hongxing and Matsuko DELUXE, what do they think? And the two hosts are very disgusted with this kind of guests!

"sue him directly."

"what kind of coffee shop do you go to? if you want to drink boiled water, go to the civic center."

"or just go to the park and chat."

The two hosts were indignant, but the results of the program's survey of the public made them dumbfounded, shouting that Japan was about to be saved! The survey shows that as many as 30.9% of people think that they can go to the coffee shop without ordering, on the grounds that they "simply enjoy the atmosphere in the shop" or "don't want to order anything".

The survey results of the program also triggered a debate among Japanese netizens, ↓.

"the guy who drinks only water in the coffee shop is a thief at all."

"some idiots say that they simply want to enjoy the atmosphere in the store, which is for the people who order, okay?"

"you can just invite that group out, but the coffee shop in the country may not be so strict."
