I also have an annoying Starbucks story, this morning I ordered a Venti Iced Raspberry Quad white mocha. And said it loud and clear. She called it out as "grande" and I pointed out the venti part. she recalled it. She ommitted the Quad part so I had to specify "please, an extra shot of espresso" she gave me the death look. I was unapologetic. First of all, each addition increases the price of the drink and I said it slow, loud and clear if she didn't get it, it's not my fault. Please. So many people order "grande no foam 2/3 decaf extra hot yadda yadda mocha" and hover over the barista to make sure it's exactly right....mine was not so bad.

venti iced raspberry quad white mocha? if they even get that right half the time, I say good job to the $10 per hour barristas.

they typically don't screw up my venti earl grey. I must go to the superstar barrista training location.

SIGH. I said, there are no others. Therefore, there are no Seattle's Best or Peet's. Because those would be others, and there are none. There may be other chains available somewhere within a few miles, but none are convenient to work. Which is why I said there aren't any. No Gloria Jeans or that Louisiana-y one either.

God, you are so sexy. It's like you're a blonde dtb. (Uh, assuming that dtb is Not Blonde. And assuming that you are -- I mean, we all look like our avatars, right?)

And, no, I am not kidding. For some reason, timmy chicks are hot. My therapist is trying to help me figure this one out.

Is that because I'm such a huge fat or because I have so many personalities?

So, I go down to Starbucks, and I order a grande nonfat latte. Not a difficult order. I hear the chippie I'm paying say to the barristo, "grande nonfat latte" like he couldn't hear it when I said it, since really no one else is there, it was quite slow, being kinda close to lunch and all.

Then I walk over and watch as the barristo guy puts whipped cream on top of a grande hot drink. He says, what did you order? And I say, grande nonfat latte. He nods, and puts the drink that involves whipped cream on the counter, and then walks over to chat with someone. Then he looks at me and says, that's your drink. And I said, no it's not, I ordered a latte, and that has whipped cream. And he says, did you request no whip? And I say, what? There is no whip in a latte. That's not a latte thing. And then he scraped off the whipped cream, and I must have looked irritated, because he offered to remake it, but I was in a hurry so I said no, it's fine, really, I don't care, I need to go, thanks.

It's not like it was a fucking frappuchino.

It's official.

You, paigow and sunnybunny have become the exact same poster.

This morning there was a belligerent homeless guy in Starbucks, and the two-thirds of the workforce was trying to persuade him to leave. Even after he left, his aroma lingered. What a crappy part of the job that would be.

Cut him some slack. They probably but whip on his grande skim latte...
