The Seven Mile Beach Kiosk Café in Gerroa, New South Wales,
Australia, doesn’t just serve its customers good coffee, but also a lesson in
politeness. In order to reinforce the importance of being nice, the
café’s owners are actually charging people different rates for coffee,
depending on how they ask for it.
Just so this doesn’t confuse their customers, they’ve put
up a sign outside the café explaining their innovative pricing policy.
According to the sign, merely asking for “A coffee” will set you back by
$5.00.
Saying, “A coffee, please” will bring the price down to
$4.50.
And if you want to go the whole mile, you could say “Good
morning, a coffee please.” Then they’ll only charge you $4.00.
What would it take to drop the price to free. I wonder?
"This
humble and wretched piece of subservient camel dung wishes a most excellent
and prosperous day to your benevolent majesty and proud owner of this
magnificent establishment of glorious magnitude and good cheer. I behold
the comeliness of your treasured waitresses who are indeed resplendent
and full of pleasant mannerisms towards your undeserving servant who
would deem it an honour to be served and would gladly sip coffee from
one of their shoes. Alas, being Australia, they are all wearing sandals,
albeit the latest fashion trend, but nevertheless, sandals, thus making
coffee sipping treacherous and although lapping it from your splendidly
clean floor would be my utmost pleasure, I prostrate myself before you
and beg forgiveness for being presumptuous and asking if your eminence
would deem to honour this wretched soul with a mug...for which I would
be forever grateful." Add a virtual treat, too, if you don't mind, mate!
See ya, eh!
