First rule of business....don't participate in any controversial topic.

Posted by Will Hunting (aka JoeMetz) Mar 17 '15, 10:59

all you'll do is anger a portion of your customer base.

"What do you think about gay marriage?"
"We serve coffee to everyone who wants to buy."

"What do you think about Obamacare?"
"We serve coffee to everyone who wants to buy."

"What do you think about Al-Queda."
"Fuck those guys, but I'm not carding if they want to buy my coffee."
