It's that or just drop the car off and we'll call you when it's done. My job was to make the car awesome, not do a dog and pony show for them while they wait.
Maybe I'm just an asshole.
This greatly depends on where the shop is located. The customer may not have a ride to leave and drive any distance just to get food/drinks. If the shop is near a mall or something, that's different. Otherwise, it's much better to have an area that allows customers to be at least somewhat comfortable. In this day and age if customer service isn't important to you, then you can forget about having a business.
