Recently, when a Hubei netizen passed by a local Piye store in Wuhan, he noticed a conspicuous "Instructions for Entering the Store" placed in front of the store.

It is understood that this Piye who placed notices is located in Wuhan Qincheng Vientiane City. The picture shows that the public area where the bulletin board is located is the exclusive guest area of the store. Because the location in the store is limited and the customer experience is avoided, the store requires customers to enter the store to consume and sit down. Seeing this "Store Entry Instructions", the netizen couldn't help but sigh,"Master Pi can't bear the customers who consume and occupy seats."

I didn't expect that this casual post would attract the attention and discussion of many onlookers after it was released. Some netizens said that they had seen similar "Store Entry Instructions" and warning signs for consumers to sit in at Piye stores in Zhejiang, Guangzhou and other places, speculating that the brand may intend to implement this regulation to stores across the country.

In this regard, most people in the comment section supported Piye's implementation of consumer seating, and they all called on chain brands such as Starbucks, Manner, and Naixue to learn.

Many netizens said that coffee shops and milk tea shops around the community and in commercial cities have become concentrated places for non-consumers. They often see non-consumers passers-by gathering in the store to play cards, talk loudly, occupy tables and chairs for a long time, etc., which greatly affects the experience of other customers in the store, and also makes the real consumers unable to find seats in the store and can only hold drinks at a loss.

Moreover, in the eyes of most people, the behavior of occupying seats without consumption is not conducive to the daily operations of stores. Migrant workers exposed some uncivilized behaviors in the store, pointing out that some people in the non-consumer group would bring their own food, beverages, etc. into the store, regard the public passenger area as their own living room, sit casually and have eaten food residue scattered all over the ground, forcing the shop assistants to spend time and energy cleaning up the mess on the table.

In addition to the above, netizens shared that they have also seen strange behaviors such as not consuming in stores but occupying seats for makeup, lying flat and sleeping, and carrying goods live broadcasts. They bluntly said that such unreasonable use of public space will cause other people. People caused trouble and believed that the introduction of consumer seating in stores may be able to screen store customers to a certain extent, thereby reducing uncivilized seat-occupying behaviors.

However, some people think that the "Instructions for Entering the Store" displayed by Ye Pi can actually play a very limited role."In fact, it is just a display" and "this kind of sign prevents gentlemen but not villains."

As early as May last year, Starbucks tried the "consumer-seated" policy, requiring customers entering the store to spend before they can sit down. If they don't order, they may be "politely persuaded" by the clerk to leave. But one year later, non-consumer hegemony still appears in Starbucks stores across the country.

The onlookers said helplessly that although the chain brand wants to improve the store environment and provide customers with a better atmosphere through consumption, it is difficult to operate in practice. Some tyrants "cannot see" the door notices and "cannot hear" the shop assistants 'advice. Instead, they may accuse the store and complain about the store's poor service attitude, etc., so that the wronged employees gradually no longer come forward to persuade them to leave.

From this point of view, some netizens are worried that Piye, who also implements consumer seating, may repeat the mistakes of Starbucks. There is a sign at the door to sign consumer seating, but he has to let non-consumer seat bullies in due to various practical situations.
