Places to avoid because the staff SUCKS (Hillcrest)

"LIVING ROOM" COFFEE SHOP AND "ONO SUSHI" (read my previous tirade/blog). The coffee shop has one helluva bitch behind the counter, although I like the goods & the atmosphere. Talk about fricken power-tripping...this chick is gonna make you feel like the fact that you ordered something is a complete imposition on her. We actually avoid this place when we see her behind the counter. Otherwise, the baristas and other staff are very nice, but perhaps she's cowed them into subservience. Too bad for the owner, but our money (and yours) is better spent in more friendly places (like Diedrich Coffee near Trader Joe's). Who needs that negativity when all you want is a cup of joe?
