Simon1223 Thank you for your response. I guess IKEA thought that setting limits would negatively affect its reputation.

Simon1223 It's quite difficult for those elderly people to change their behaviors. They grew up in an era that people fought with each other according to the policies of party and government. Such severe environment made them only care about their own interests....

Simon1223 @dpk262006 Haha, personally speaking, my appearance is quite normal. I feel confident about it. But I acquire more confident mainly through accumulating knowledges, which is more valuable than appearance.

Recently a friend of mine bought a new car. He told me that the price of a new car license plate has already risen to more than 50,000 RMB (more than 8,000 USD). I felt a little surprised for several months ago a license plate...

Simon1223 In big cities improving the public transportation is the essential way to solve the problem of traffic jam. The high price of car license plate may prohibit some people from owning cars, but they have no better alternatives.

In my country, every year millions of people register and prepare for the civil servant examinations. In their views, civil servant is absolutely an attractive job which has many advantages. As a civil servant, you could receive...

Simon1223 Yeah, the salary of civil servant is also low here, which makes it impossible for the government to attract high quality applicants. The result is that the quality of public service is so disappointing.

Simon1223 @maggs224 To those famous people, their fame is a resource of fortune. Any time they need money, they could just sell such resource and get a lot of money. It seems so good, but we ordinary people lack such resource.

Have you ever lost a loved one? As you get older, it is inevitable that it will happen sooner or later. One year I lost my fiance, my grandfather, my Mom and a close friend. It was one of the hardest times of my life. The...

Simon1223 @flippish2014 Yeah, I also have such ideas but the truth is I always forget my dreams just a few seconds after I wake up, which makes it quite impossible for me to record the dreams in time. Wish I could find some better ways.

Simon1223 Thank you for your response. These elders didn't break any rules made by IKEA. But it's obvious that they abused their rights of enjoying free coffee as a member. If they just drink coffee in one or two hours in the restaurant, I guess nobody will mind that.

Simon1223 Thank you for your response. I agree that IKEA should responsible for such situation for it didn't anticipate such a group of people. In reality, most customers who have member cards usually buy other foods in the restaurant while drinking free coffee. But for...

Simon1223 Thank you for your response. It's true that these elders didn't break the rules made by IKEA. Now IKEA has taken some methods to solve this problem. It regulated that on weekdays people who drink free coffee should sit in a certain area of restaurant so that...

Simon1223 Thank you for your response. Actually I totally understand those elders. Due to the certain reasons, they didn't receive good education so that they didn't earn much money. They tried their best to save every cent. But such conduct also damaged the interest of...

Simon1223 Thank you for your response. Free coffee is not for everybody, just for those who have member cards. A member card usually costs you a little money. If you drink coffee there frequently, you'll feel it worth the money. But the problem is they occupy the seats...
