The post, which does not identify the sergeant involved, says he walked into the Starbucks at 13th and Chestnut streets and asked to use the restroom, for which a key code is required. The employee, according to the post, "State[d] in a loud voice ... that the bathroom is for paying customers only." The post goes on to say that the sergeant asked politely to use the restroom anyway, and that the Starbucks employee declined to grant access.
Officer Joe Leighthardt, who knows the sergeant, was the first to share his fellow officer's post about the incident, which happened Thursday or Friday of last week. Leighthardt said he personally has been to that Starbucks location several times on calls for service, but never as a customer.

Calls of service? Exactly its your job! And their policy is to pee you pay! What don't you cops understand? Your no better then anyone else! Rules are rules and your above nobody.
Laws are laws rules are rules.
Having had a boardwalk business for over 40 years it was our policy to allow no one except employees to use our restroom.
While it was the 'rule' we did use discretion. If it was a mother asking whose child was ready to go in their pants, of course I allowed them to use the restroom.
I allowed employees to make this 'executive decision' as well.
I can't recall an officer ever asking, but if they did I would have allowed it.
If it were a group of drunk rowdies of course not.
Not much is set in stone in business and for your own success you have to use discretion. When there is even the slightest chance that an action may cause bad publicity, you don't do it.
incredible how far this country is in the toilet.

I don't think it's the rule as other employees have come out and have said they do allow uniformed officers to use the restroom-all the time.
This is just another instance of some half wit thinking she is going to be cute and clever and it's backfired.
Reminds me of that other loser who paraded her young children in front of their father's casket, had them smiling ear to ear and posted it on FB.
