today actually.
and i understand the concept of the comfy chairs and coffee, i'm not arguing with that. if they didn't attract and help business, the bookstores wouldn't have them. i just get upset when i see people abuse it and treat a bookstore like a library.
i knew a chick who worked at borders. a guy once asked her if they had a xerox machine so he could copy some things out of a book. i have seen people with a stack of books opened, spines bent back, taking notes and doing homework or something.
ive seen a guy sitting in the comfy chair, bending the book back, reading, like he was in his living room. no, he didn't buy the book. why should he?
THOSE are the people that bother me.
