That helps with the problem too!!!!
Because if you aren't frequenting the place, then it lessens the load on the employees. (and more importantly hurts the wallets of the business owners)
Not that this is the end result we hope for!!! BUT.... when the wallets are affected, this makes the owners take notice and figure out ways to solve the ACTUAL problem.
I am a firm believer that we vote with our dollar! And I am with you - I will choose to spend my money in places that support people overall.
We literally sat in a Mexican restaurant the other day where there was one other person - so no wait. (but also hardly any business for the place!!!) and the food was OUTSTANDING. the music was great - and we felt GREAT for having supported that establishment.
If more people would choose to support others - wow, what a world we would have!!!!
morning mary!!!! :)
