That is not how you do business. \n\nI understand that poutinis is a takeout joint. No bathroom, just grab your food and get out. I can't tell if the blaring music is simply the product of childish staff who don't care about the customer, or if it is a tool to get the customer out because they don't want to encourage dining in.\n\nThe lack of seating and bathroom are hint enough that it is not a \"dine in and sit there for half an hour\" kind of joint, so they really don't need the music to flush me out of the place.\n\nIf the music is a result of immature staff who don't understand the real world of work and customer service, then I suggest rigging up their own personal speakers for their own personal music in the back kitchen area where customers don't have to be subjected to ear splitting music.\n\nLast time I was in they were blaring terrible rap.\nSecond last time I was in they were blaring crappy pop and rock.\nI can't be bothered to go again. I used to go all the time. No more.\n\nPS- I'm not a 70 year old, I am actually young and I enjoy listening to loud music. I just don't like to be subjected to other people's taste in music at 500 decibels."^^ .
