Refuse to sit for a long time and try drinking coffee standing up?

Most people who have been to Paris know that cafes have such a trick: if the price of sitting down to drink a cup of coffee is 3 euros, then drinking the same cup of coffee standing up will only cost you about 1.8 euros. The shopkeeper knows the difference between standing and sitting, and knows that standing coffee drinkers usually don't patronize for a long time, so they can give up space in the store to the next customer more quickly, so they naturally have to give them a relatively cheap price. In fact, there are such hidden rules for drinking coffee or beer in many European cities, but it seems difficult to catch on at home. Life is not as slow as it is in Europe. Most people go to cafes to enjoy themselves. Who wants to stand?

However, a cruel and cautionary survey has made many people change their minds: the World Health Organization reports that people who sit for six hours a day are 40% more likely to die within 15 years than those who sit for only three hours a day. The news can't help but frighten office workers, and it's natural to think that lack of exercise runs counter to health and longevity. Since we certainly can't always sit in front of the computer, can we try to stand for a while when we have to go downstairs for a cup of coffee and chat? I hope businesses can also introduce "station prices" to encourage people, which is even more encouraging!
