You know it's just a job right? The freakin Starbucks employees are a little too serious when it comes to coffee. Okay, a whole lotta serious.
They will always have the regular coffee addicted customers. No fat soy, whipped, extra-room, extra-hot latte... blah, blah, blah. But they also get the regular joe people that go to there for some reason just to get some coffee. They are stressed because of the long line and don't know what the hell to order.
They ALWAYS order the same thing. Everytime. "I just want some coffee. A medium coffee." I have been going to Starbucks far too long and I know what he wants. Everyone in the shop knows what he wants, everyone except you Starbucks lady. No, you had to embarrass him.
"Sir, I do not know what you want. I am confused." She actually said SHE was confused. How fucking hard is it to understand a MEDIUM COFFEE. Not a latte, not a capucino, not an expresso. Just regular old brewed coffee. Fuck the Italian sizes. You know a medium is a grande. He did not know.
I don't want to stereotype all of the Starbucks employees. I have had some really low key cool people serve me, but I have also had my share of these experiences from these pompous assholes as well. You're a damn COFFEE MAKER, I don't care if your title is "Barista".
I apologize for the rant, but I had been holding that in since 8:25 this morning. I just had to let it out.
