And the cafe that I used to work at is the one which prioritize the customer satisfaction through the quality of the taste and looks of the coffee. We were generous in the amount of choc sauce we used to deco the drinks. We love the look on the faces of the customers whenever they see our creativity on their coffees.But lately, the managers decides that we can only drizzle the drinks with choc powder. And it&#039;s no longer as beautiful. I love coffee art. As a customer, I would like to receive these unexpected service. And these cafes should learn to prioritize customer satisfaction over profits. Building a strong customer relation is better than a short term customer relation. It creates brand loyalty which is hard to get nowadays with so much competitors. But some of the management follow the book of rules too closely that they fail to notice this. And this is why I chose to quit and find myself another job.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hello there, I used to work at McCafe.
