Felt old today . Tech had me beaten

Went to a n independent cafe in Oxford , one I have visited before. Found a table and waited
To be served .
Then I noticed a little s square sign on the table.
“ Please order and pay using the QR code “
I know what is is but have never used it before .
Embarrassed I left.
Need to install this 😉

There was an article in one of the Hospitality Trade bulletins recently - lots of the large chains are actually ditching this sort of tech and reverting to interaction with customers..... Sad to see that independents are abandoning the personal touch, devonman!

[@ArtieKat! I was surprised . I aways seek out independents ove chains . The coffee is much better .

@devonman Was there no member of staff around to help you order? I sometimes plead ignorance and enlist help!

@ArtieKat No one seemed interested .

@devonman Competition in hospitality is so fierce at the moment - only the strong survive!
