[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's reasonable to think that a newspaper on the table doesn't equate to a reserved space. So you were fine to initially sit there. But you and your wife should have immediately got up and moved *without further questions* once the guy told you that was his table. You reaction was needlessly confrontational and hostile. That's far worse than the guy cluelessly thinking that a newspaper reserves a table.[/quote] I've also worked in retail and have developed the "just get them to go away mentality". Some people are seeking out fights and will do their best to make your day unpleasant. The best thing to do is not to engage. A seat in a coffee shop simply isn't worth the unpleasantness of someone who wants to go on a rant. You can talk about rewarding bad behavior but remember these guys get off on yelling, for them a confrontation is a reward. [/quote]
