Ever mistaken for a homeless/poor person?
There is a starbucks across the street from my job. A lot of times when I am early I just sit outside and hang out. Since I make my coffee at work I just sit there and listen to my IPOD.
I do not wear fancy clothes. My bike is old. I have not shaven in two weeks.
This morning I was just kind of standing right outside the door I think I was getting ready to sit down at an outside table. I am hot and sweaty so I don't want to go sit inside and listen to their (horrible corporate mass produced crap they are trying to sell me.) Anyway...This lady asks me "Did you get a coffee?" and I say excuse me? She repeats it and then I let her know that I had coffee at work waiting for me. I just thought it was funny.
As an after though I should have taken her up on it and ordered a venti frap! Or maybe she would have just handed me money!
A couple weeks ago one of the employees saw me sitting outside and gave me some tea and said I could go inside and get a free cup of hot water!
What is the saying? "Don't judge a book by it's cover"
I guess I should shave? he he he
