Hey there, folks how are you?

I’m in a café right now, I’ve been here several times, once with my wife, a couple of times solo, and a couple of times with intervenors.

It’s a nice café, very popular, hard to get a table, unlike today; I’ve got a huge table all to myself!

While I sip a quad-shot americano, is it expected that the intervenor also has a cup of java?

The answer to that is simple: No.

What if I buy a dozen of Lee’s famous donuts? Or open a bag of pretzels on the table as I work on something with the intervenor?

Am I supposed to share my donuts? My pretzels? Offer them a World Famous McDonald’s fry?

Again, no. I do not share, heck, I don’t even say “Did you want a fry?”

What happens if I book an intervenor for a birthday dinner party. Are they going to order the ribeye steak medium rare with mashed garlic potatoes and caramelized carrots? You’re right, the answer is No.

Occasionally, intervenors have asked if they can order a bite to eat, which I don’t mind. They should ask first.

Everyone needs to eat right?

This café, Creekside Coffee Roasters, has a particularly tasty Rocky Road bar, check it out!
