I made friends with a local cafe owner and listening to him vent is hilarious. Apparently some dude kept coming in, ordering a glass of wine for him and his wife, then returning one glass and stealing the other. Friend was frustrated because 1 or 2 glasses is just whatever, but by this point the dude had stolen 90% of the cafe's wine glasses. When confronted, he just apologized and said he had just moved in and needed them. Then there's this women who comes in every day and tries to haggle on the price of coffee to save less than a dollar. Every day, without fail, she comes in and tries to claim she gets a special discount from the owner.

What makes it so wild is the fact the minimum rent for a studio apartment in the area is $4,000/month. It's also rental only, so there's none of those old people who bought their place for $2 and a Twix back in the 80s. These people aren't even middle class, they're like top 1% and trying to swindle him out of single digit dollar amounts 💀
