Most of you are probably waking up right now thinking about heading out to Dunkin Donuts or Starbucks to get your morning coffee or your waiting for your coffee machine to get done so you can have your morning fuel. Well if you lived in the Seattle area this would be who just might greet you at a few of the coffee places around Seattle.
That’s right. A girl in a bikini (barista) would be taking your order and getting you your nonfat pumpkin latte or your tall cup of joe with 5 sugars and skim milk.
In order to compete with the big chains, some enterprising owners in the Seattle area have gone a different route in order to bring in business. They have their baristas dress up in bikinis or tasteful lingerie who make and serve your coffee and other beverages. The owners have seen a tremendous spike in business since the changeover in wardrobes. Most of the girls pull in about a $100 a day in tips. All for a $3 cup of coffee.
I think this a genius idea. I am not sure how it would work here in Connecticut but I’d have to venture a guess that you would definitely get a lot of the construction business to come in if you had very nice looking women working in your coffee shop. Would you rather get your coffee at one of these places and see a girl in a bikini? Or would you rather go to your local Dunkin Donuts? I don’t drink coffee but I tell you this. If I lived in the Seattle area or we had a place like this here in Connecticut, I would definitely start drinking coffee.
