"I could cut back hours, I could let some employees go, or I could try and do what we could," said owner Alan Tagle of his struggling coffee stand.
And apparently after settling in for an all-night brainstorming session to save his business, Tagle awoke 9 hours later with only a puddle of drool and the word "boobies" scribbled on a piece of loose-leaf paper to speak of.
Well, as Mr. Cheney would say, you go to battle with the army you have. So he announced to his staff that THEY could keep their jobs, but unfortunately, he was going to have to terminate their blouses.
It seems what was once considered "sexual harassment" during times of economic vitality can now be re-classified as "effective business strategy" during a recession. Bet you didn't know that, huh? It's in the fine-print of the TARP Act.
Let us hope Denny's doesn't follow suit.

I think you know what I'm talking about.
"Butts" hahahahahaha
:)

Butts.
But really, the classic formula always tests the best.
You know, he might increase his profit margin if he just dropped the whole coffee aspect of this deal.
I know, right? There are places that make a pretty tidy profit selling JUST visible nudity.
I mean, I like coffee as much as the next guy. But it seems to me like once you add the "topless" element, it becomes less of a coffee shop plus tits, and more of a titty bar where you just happen to be able to get a decent latté.
Lord knows I don't go to the seville for their food, but they do happen to have decent food.
They do frown against eating a bacon cheeseburger while a young hussy is bouncing off your lap.
What's the typical payout for employee boob-burnage. I mean if the coffee isn't as hot as the hostesses, aren't people going to complain?
