Sign at cafe says it is closed for repairs... signs by the candy says that it cannot be sold due to inventory.I'm crushing your head... You flathead!

    They stil have rats its pretty hard to get rid of them and they eat the candy and snacks plus they microwave everything and make so much profit on the food in the cafe. I also know that the food isn't always fresh like the soups.

    The cafe manager Rosie is a bitch and she has a attitude and why the fuck is she trying to upsell the employees we barely make enough money as it is and don't get an employee discount at the cafe.

    You Purchase: Bottled Water ~$1  
    Upsell: Smoothie ~ $4

    fast food places do the same thing.  
    "would you like fries with that?"  
    theres nothing wrong with them asking you if you want chips and a soda with your sandwhich.  
    its called accessorizing any place that sells anything will do it.  
     
    my friend used to work at subway he said there trick was to never offer the small sub always say foot long after they tell you which kind they want.  
    they also ask you if you want the combo at subway too.  
    all places offer you extras cause you dont know you want it till you think about it.i love it when they call me big papa

    There's another sales trick that everyone should know by now. It's called "Which would you prefer?" The premise is that by asking a customer which of two equally regarded items they would prefer, you've bypassed the whole process of whether or not they should be buying it in the first place. It's a passive sales technique that's very subtle and works extremely well in the Software department. By asking a customer about favorite types of video games, favorite movie genres or actors, or whether they prefer Norton to McAfee, you've just initiated a conversation that gets them thinking about their likes rather than their dislikes. It's good customer service, because you're providing leading questions that guide their thinking into a narrower category, and it helps them to feel better about what they're buying, because they've already justified the purchase. That's not to say it isn't in some ways immoral. If you think about it, all sales techniques are immoral. This one just gives the customer some mental justification for what they're buying.The only thing worse than ignorance is stupidity.
