What a the point of offering wifi for phones at a restaurant? Don't they already have service? Its not like an airport where you might be there for hours without something to occupy yourself with.
- iancarroll 12y agoKids have iPods, some cell phones have bad reception, customer ran out of data, the list goes on.
- ConnorBoyd 12y agoPlus for international travelers, restaurant wifi is sometimes the only way to get internet access
- nmrm 12y agoMany restaurants, in addition to the dinner crowd, also service a more business-oriented clientele during the day. Wifi might be more necessary for working lunches, which laptops/tablets instead of phones are necessary.
- raverbashing 12y agoSo how about this: don't work during lunch (at least not in a restaurant). Go to a mall plaza or somewhere that's not busy. This is probably one of the most infuriating things in the work culture in Anglo North-America
- nmrm 12y agoI'll get right on that :-) More seriously, I like lunch meetings. I'd rather get out of work and back to the family an hour earlier than spend it idling with co-workers. And often times, there's really not a good place to meet. Why drive 10-15 minutes, find parking, etc. at the nearest mall when you can walk down the street to the nearest restaurant in 5 minutes? Plus, I'd never invite a potential client to a mall plaza, esp during the summer...
- raverbashing 12y agoI'm not really against lunch meetings, what I'm against is setting shop (taking laptops outs, or reams and reams of paper) and taking a long lunch in a busy place. ;)
