the city turned the water off last night around 11pm.
went to work this am at 6 prepared for the worse. it was as bad as i thought.
we had to have coffee brewed at other cafes and someone drove it down. we also had to have water and ice brought to us.
no bathrooms. no hand washing. no water to drink.
it is like working at a factory in a third world country. a sticky, coffee ground covered factory.
customers were difficult. employees were frustrated and stressed. the store was a complete mess at all times with empty coffee cambros (giant dispensers of liquid items), stacks of dirty dishes, sticky/coffee messes every where.
even after explaining to customers why they couldn't have a mug for here or why they couldnt use the bathroom, they'd still ask for something that need water.....like a cup of ice water.
stupidity was at an all time high today.
general rules thrown out the window.
level of friendliness/politeness/concern for customer's satisfaction at an all time low.
i left work at 3 and all the city workers had done was dig a hole where the pipe broke and then cover the hole back up.
looks like my fellow employees will have to do this all over again tomorrow.

this is awful. i promise if we ever are in business together and something like this happens, we're closing the store and going to get smoothies instead.
