Yes, you can't see from the photo that she is 'managing' the shop...that would involve her doing books or schedules or something along those lines. But my purpose isn't to get you to understand that she is 'managing'...more the point is to show that there are coffee shops in the world where photographs can be taken (even of the higher-ups) without fear of being attacked, ushered out, cameras confiscated and the like. Ruth, by the way, is not the owner, just the manager. Personally, I like her relaxed style! A coffee bar where the help drinks with the customers is my kind of place.
