Bikinis?

Java Mama's employees to wear bikinis ,,,, my, my - wouldn't grama be proud. 

What's wrong with this employer and the young women who went along with this idea?  No brains - just boobs? 

Should Java Mama decide to increase business by providing a good cup of coffee in an efficient manner (don't want to wait 10 minutes!), I'll show up.  Otherwise, I don't want to be any where near a place that debases and reduces a woman to T&A.

LOL Lori! I stated a few anti-bikini comments on the article yesterday. I erased them. I guess I found myself taking it too seriously, and decided quickly that this was a battle I didn't want to choose to fight. Let's face it when it comes to men and breasts we won't win. Not that we can blame them they are programed that way so people can and do make money off that impulse. Honestly I've never been to Java Mama's and my husband doesn't drink coffee so this doesn't really effect me at all.

Countrygirl - we should fight the battle for recognizing proud, smart women everywhere we find an opportunity.  And, just for the record, I think its great when lovers appreciate each other's bodies. I don't have anything against boobs - mine or yours.   But why oh why, would you want to spend any time gawking at someone else's lover?  And, why oh why, would you want to display your goods to someone other than your own personnal admirer?  Goodness, how much sexual attention does one individual need?  And, why oh why, would you want that kind of attention from a stranger?  Yukky.

Gee - I got more questions then answers.

I get what you are saying Lori, but unless you cover I don't think you can justify the direction you are taking. Plus, I'm sorry but guys will and do look or gawk as you put it, girls do to I'm sure. That's just reality and it will NEVER change. I have no problem with the looking anyway... it's harmless. Men will look regardless of what you are wearing... chances are if you're wearing less they just look longer! lol

I do have to say though that I'm glad they panic button was mentioned in the article because they've just peaked the interest of every perv in town. ......... Don't be so sensitive lol..... I'm talking about the ones with problems!!!

I was driving behind a dude the other day that about broke his neck staring at the "bikini baristas" sign at Java Mama's then he actually turned around and went back over there. It cracked me up. And Lori, I don't think it has anything to do with brains. Exactly the opposite actually if they can get away with it morally. It's the almighty dollar speaking. Sex sells every time.

Gosh Lori, I don't think there's anything yukky about it.  It's just a little eye candy, nothing more.  It is possible to enjoy looking at a pretty girl in a bikini and not become sexually aroused over it.

I agree that there is nothing yukky about a girl in a bikini. BUT yukky is a guy in a speedo,. If you don't like it don't drink the coffee.come on, Get off your high horse.

Hey i remember when the Branch Office Bar put a pole in there and had pole dancing contests... that started a frenzy...I love Tehachapi, so stiff.  They had a pregnant bikini contest down here it was all in fun.  Geez....go to the beach and there are bikinis everywhere.  Its a freekin bikini, whats the big deal?

Countygirl~what if your husband did drink coffee?  Would that be a problem in your marriage if he went to Java Mama's and bought coffee from a bikini clad barista?  If so, why?

Now that's how to serve up a hot 'cup' of Joe! Joline, Jolinda, Josephine, Jobeth...Jo-Mama!
This is a great idea! In fact, I think our politicians should have to conduct business in bikinis and speedos. How dishonest can you be when it's "all hanging out?"

Exactly - thank you all for agreeing with me.  Bikinis at the beach - perfect beach wear.  And - my point was not from the guy's point of view.  We all know most of you'll look at anything, anytime.  But will you stand in line more than once to see Jane's boobs?  My point is from a woman's point of view - who wants some yukky creep gawking at you? 

Sex sells - but this is the bottom rung on the ladder.  Once you come down that low, there's no place else to go.  Java Mama will be gone before next spring.  Who's up for the bet?

Re: gawking.  The problem for all women is you usually can't tell the creep from the nice guy appreciating his "eye candy,"  unless of course he has his hands in his pants. 

OK - I just yukky'ed myself over the top.  I'm still up for the bet.  Curly?  Bigdog?  Greg?

Girls in bikinis?  Who cares.  They need a job.

If I were a bettin' man, I'd take that wager Lori. But if you are right, I really doubt it will be because of the bikinis.
Doing business in Tehachapi is tough. 
Think about this: A drive thru coffe place probbly has an average sale somewhere between $5 and $10 max. If you're buying for the whole office, you're probably not going to drive thru, you're going to fax your order to Starbucks or brew a pot and buy donuts from Albertsons. Considering you're paying minimum wage for the two bikini babes working their cabooses, even if you don't hold a lease on your location, you have to have somewhere in the vicinity of 5-10 customers an hour to cover your overhead and make enough $ to buy yourself a Frapuccino at the end of the day. I'm no economist or financial analyst, Nyuk, Nyuk, but I don't think anybody can aford to stay in business at $5-$10 a sale these days.

Well Lori, I AM a bettin' man, but as Curly said, if they do go out of business by spring, it probably won't be because of the bikini issue.  Especially since business seems to be booming because of it so far.  Anyway, what would your conditions be and what would be the wager, maybe I'll take ya up!

If anyone is going to Java Mama's to creepily gawk, then that is a problem.  But those folks should just use the internet, there's way more graphic porn easily accessible on the internet than girls in bikini's.  Wait a minute, I mean, I've heard there's more porn on the internet!

Jewels- I remember the amateur stripper nights at the Branch Office too!

Now to answer your question, Would I mind if my husband got coffee from there?  Well now that would depend. I'm not really the jealous type, BUT if he was only going there because of the bikini's not because he really liked their tea or their cinnamon rolls I'd be irritated because I think that that kind of behavior is disrespectful when you're married.  I know I have nothing to worry about though....:) and that would still apply even if he drank coffee!

 I just had to point out that I was talking about him going there on a regular basis of his own accord.. If he went once out of curiosity or something I could care less, if he was with a friend who wanted to go there.....I could care less... get my drift.
