This is a rant against people who keep sitting inside of coffee shops like Starbucks, costa and coffee bean with nothing apparent to do except just sit and occupy seats meant for two people, flip pages of books, type gibberish on laptops and nurse a cup of long finished drinks.
I have a problem with said people who're just sitting there for no reason, pretending like they've got work, peering inside their phones seeing photos and just whiling away time because they're aimless and and have nothing going on in their lives.
These are people studding these shops in droves making it impossible for those who actually want to sit inside for a cup of coffee and leave.
I have a problem with these people who sit on those long benches, sitting with strangers at close quarters and listening to music on their phones with their headphones, chatting on WeChat, and ever so often peeping inside their laptops to turn off the screensaver.
It's because of these people who're not drinking anything, who're not leaving those seats, who're not ready to come to terms with the fact that they're bored with few options to kill time and are only pretending to look busy when they're actually dead inside but wish to be someplace that's known to be lively just so they could believe otherwise that stepping inside these shops feels like a punishment.
I mean all I wanted was to grab some coffee and sit while drinking the said drink but the fact that there wasn't any place unoccupied made this small task an impossibility.
Worst was the fact that most seats meant for two people were occupied with only one person who had all their junk on the table and there must be at least half a dozen such seats that were occupied by just one person uninterested in the book they pretended to read with not a drink on the table.
I wanted to yank these people out of the chairs and fling them out, instead I silently grumbled and resolved that I'm not the one to drink coffee standing up.
I mean if I'm looking for a comfortable few minutes to myself I'm not going to compromise on the quality of it even if it means going back home for the coffee and that's exactly what I did and currently I'm seething at those people.
If I ever drink coffee then it'll only be in local coffee shop chains and never ever in one of these fancy shitty places cuz I can't stand the people who throng these shops.
