WiFi Cafe

Laptop? Check.
Coffee? Check.
WiFi? Check.

It's the smell of coffee, the din of other patrons talking to each other, the casual atmosphere and the activity around that has this effect on me.  I relax. And, surprisingly to some, I become productive. 

So whenever on the road and I know that my taxi is nearing the hotel, I keep a lookout for possible hideouts if and when I get an afternoon (or even morning) free to work in this seemingly chaotic atmosphere which has quite the opposite effect on me.

I may be that laptop-toting, coffee-drinking business traveller in your neighborhood café but that does not mean that I do not observe the unspoken WiFi in public areas etiquette. 

  • I do not download big files (email with attachments or, horror of horrors, videos). If I need to, I stay in my hotel room and work from there;
  • I do not stay online very long. It could become expensive, you know;
  • I make sure that I do not stay there for hours on end with only one purchase. I buy a drink every hour so as not to overstay my welcome.

What about you? Do you observe these unspoken "rules" whenever you are using public WiFi?
