24 hour kiosks
« on: July 13, 2013, 11:23:50 AM »
Every bastard shop here has a sign saying 24 hours , yet they close when they feel like it ........last night was in an area known as the "triangle" about 10 bars 10 foody places .....at mid-night not 1 of the 3 kiosks there were open ...... cussing:

then the bastards complain there is no tourists .....yeah coz you can't buy even a bottle of water ........ cussing:

This area has all the major hotels in walking distance....... noooo:

It's the height of the season .......... Banghead

They do same sort of thing here too.  You see a pub with "food served til 9.30" sign and you turn up at 8.45 with friends and they say "sorry we sent them home at half eight cos it was a bit quiet"   evil:

Be even quieter next time

At least it's illegal here.  IF I could be arsed to report them
Well, whatever, nevermind

How sad, never mind

Yonks ago I saw these 3 most important rules for business, and they're still dead right

1.  Think Customer
2.  Always have a plan
3.  Never ever run out of cash

Sounds like your idiots failed all of them but especially the first one. 
Well, whatever, nevermind

All the bars/restaurants in the village are closed one night a week (not the same night)...

I can see the sense in the winter but in holiday season it is complete madness...  noooo:

Is this a 5 minute rant or a 10 minute rant?   ;)
It's better than I ever even knew.  They say that the world was built for two.  Only worth living if somebody is loving you.  Baby now you do.
