NACC: Plays Well With Others

Are Christians good customers?

I asked the lady behind the counter at the Starbucks how people were treating her. She was located right next to the main entrance and nearly everyone would have had the opportunity to buy a three dollar coffee from her.

She said that the convention-goers had been pleasant and tipping well. [You tip for coffee? After paying three bucks? I've got a tip for you…]

So I asked her who are the worst customers at conventions and special events. I was expecting some kind of professional convention, maybe doctors, or lawyers, or lawyers who sue doctors, or something like that. Her answer? The moms of youth volleyball players, hands down. She said they are bitter, high strung, complaining, and rude. Those moms are the worst.

I hope none of those moms were also at the Christian Convention.

He who pays $1 for a 20oz pop from the church coke machine when a 2-liter is $1.59 shall not cast stones!

Starbucks 20oz house coffee is $1.60...in both cases, we pay for the convenience.

And, yes, us coffee drinkers pay a premium for a cup of starbucks for the same reason you pay a premium for name brand pop instead of Dr. Thunder or whatever.

Snobby non-coffee drinkers...
