So they’re going to be allowing people to sit in the lobby? At the same tables? As long as they’re all from the same household? How are we supposed to verify this? “Um hi there! It’s really great to see you all here spending time together buuuuuut can I check all your driver’s licenses or maybe a piece of mail to prove your residence? Thaaaaaaaanks!” How?

Edit: maybe it’s just our store bc I’m getting reports from other partners that they haven’t heard of this. Also, my store is a guinea pig store every now and then. We were one of the first to open our lobby in the area. Regardless, aren’t we supposed to be assuming the best in others? Hard to say.

Wait wait wait, what?! Am I behind the times here? Did Starbucks come out and say we’re opening seating again? In every store or city by city?

I got an email from my SM mentioning that our tables will be available but thankfully not outdoor seating bc we have local transients who would absolutely WRECK the place.

am i behind on something cause my store’s lobby’s still completely shut down 👁👄👁

I doubt it. We’re in So Cal and everything is opening up around here. I hope your lobby remains closed until the vaccine proves non-lethal.

What are you talking about? I also live in SoCal and pretty much every single establishment (save for a few fancy restaurants) I’ve been to do not currently allow indoor seating. Outdoor seating, maybe yes, but not “everything is opening up around here.” Especially not LA. (I live and work in OC...we might be full of dipshit Republicans, but we’re not *that* stupid.)

I mean, there is literally no reason for me to make this up. I’m just venting here bc I’ve vented everywhere else I can. Sorry for ruffling your feathers.

Apparently since the 2nd but I think it’s just for the local area. I got an email and I was LIVID. We were essential and now we’re getting sick left and right. It’s a freaking miracle that I haven’t been exposed.
