The most important part about my breakfast spot is that it’s expedient. Breakfast is breakfast to me. So when my spot gets over run by hipsters, I’m not happy and here’s why:
- The hipster today ordered meals for 3 people. This place orders on a touch screen so when he orders for 3 people, it’s like putting 3 people ahead of the next person who orders. This is not so much an issue as the more considerate way to do this would be to phone in an order so that you don’t make people wait behind you. On a scale of annoying, this is a 3/10.
- The hipster went to pay for his $12 meal with a card and the balance came up as -$7.24 and it shut down the entire POP software. I have no idea why this happened, but there was a delay at the register and he was the cause. My guess is that his account probably had $5 dollars in it and the bank couldn’t believe that a hipster was trying to over draw his account by $7.00. Where did he get that much cash? 6/10.
- The hipster and his hipster friends sit at the 2 tables and crowd all the space while they reminisce about music festivals, their favorite craft beers, and how the man is holding them down. This place isn’t a restaurant. It’s equivalent to a deli where you get your meal and go. You don’t hang out for an hour eating your breakfast before going to take a nap before your non-job. 4/10.
Would it make a difference if I didn’t live in a hipster area and these were normal people doing the same exact things? Probably not. I’m salty because it takes up my time to wait for other people. I happen to live in a hipster area which is why I make the point about the hipsters. Do I even know the difference between a hipster and a hippie? No. Do I know why my neighborhood doesn’t have one decent sports bar? Hipsters. Do hipsters bother me? Not really. I’d like to think I’m open minded to any and everyone and if they don’t invade your personal space, it’s all good. They just happened to take over my breakfast arena.
