Laptop squatters - Lordship Lane

[Lucyalexandra]

As a self-employed person and mum of three there are occasions when I have no choice but to work in a coffee shop out of the house (where three extremely noisy kids are). without that option every now and then I wouldn't be able to work - and I don't have the option of renting office space for those odd occasions. Most people I know who do this aren't taking up all the seats - they buy a drink and maybe a snack and sit quietly, not bothering anyone. With so much of our population self employed I really think that it's unkind to moan about it. I don't know why it's considered smug!

The only time I felt annoyed about a 'work from coffee shop' guy was when he seemed to be giving someone else a humongous rollocking over the phone for his standard of work.

But coffee shops like the one below have meeting rooms you can reserve for doing the failing staff members personal development plan (or other meetings) :)
