Q:

Recently, we've noticed a significant increase in foreign tourists using our services, regardless of the day of the week or time of day. While there's nothing inherently wrong with them using our services, the following issues are arising, and we would appreciate it if you could consider some solutions:
1. Signs in English and Chinese indicate that the service is unavailable to non-customers between 11:30 AM and 1:00 PM on weekdays, yet we see foreign tourists using the service regardless almost daily. We would like you to implement more effective measures to address this.
2. Foreign tourists often take a long time to pay, causing delays for those behind them. We would like you to set up a register specifically for Co-op Money payments. (A register dedicated to electronic money, including credit cards and transportation IC cards, would not be a solution.)

Thank you for your continued efforts in running the cafeteria. While the Central Cafeteria also plays a role as a tourist destination, we would appreciate it if you would take seriously any incidents that impair the convenience of students, faculty, and staff who use the cafeteria on a daily basis. Thank you in advance

A:

Regarding comment 1, we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused. The Co-op takes this matter very seriously and is considering possible countermeasures.
Regarding comment 2, we operate up to two Co-op Money-only registers during peak hours. Due to staffing shortages, there are days when only one Co-op Money-only register is available, and we apologize for any inconvenience caused. We will do our best to increase the number of Co-op Money-only registers in operation.
