A couple approached one of the waiters today asking if they could host a shoot with a professional photographer in the cafe.He apparently met his fiance at the cafe, and they’re getting married next month so they just wanted to create a memory.The waiter called my mum and told them it’s fine, as long as they don’t disturb the other guests.My dad overheard my mom and called the waiter, wanting to talk to the couple.He asked them to spend at least 4000rs( 45 dollars ) not a huge amount, but it helps.I told him this is not the way to go, cause atleast we get free marketing, and more people would come to the place more.He told me not to interfere cause I don’t know nothing about the business, but quite frankly he doesn’t too, he’s a software engineer earning a pretty decent sum.He started this last year cause my mum wanted to open a cafe.

HIS POINT OF VIEW We make close to 12lakh a month ( about 14 thousand dollars ), but yes we spend a lot too.He told me only he knows how he’s struggling with the place, so I just kept my mouth shut.We may not be taking much home but I know for a face it’s more than 60 thousand ( about 700 dollars )

MY POINT OF VIEW Couple take photos, we get free marketing. Word gets out, more people come, good business for us.
