I own a shop and I am plauged by kids who come in and hang around. They don't buy anything and they put my real customers off. I keep telling them this is not a social club and to go away.
Do i need a sign up saying "The management reserve the right of admission" before I can bar them?
Thanks for your opinions.
Limit the number of kids to two at a time, you can put a sign up stating this, say you are not in a position to be able to serve more than two, and other customers as well, if the shop is full of kids, say at lunchtime when they all pile in together.This will work without upsetting anyone. I have often seen this notice on shop doors. Two kids are easy to handle but also dont forget that they have money to spend as well. Just stock something that will be popular with that age group.
I'm pretty sure that pubs/clubs can no longer restrict entry to (for example) over 23's in the way they used to, as this is discriminating on grounds of age (one of the nine grounds listed in the Equal Status Acts.
This cant be right. Wasn't there a case recently where a man won damages from a pub for been refused for being too OLD.
Surly they can't discriminate one way & not the other.
I suspect that a Bing Crosby CD on repeat will see them off without bothering your actual customers. Seriously.I own a shop and I am plauged by kids who come in and hang around.
