Had a guy come in and ask for a double mocha frap with no whip. When I rang him up and told him the total he simply took of his shirt, opened up the fly in his pants, and removed a crisp $200 bill from beneath his testicle.

I gave him his change and off he went, never to be seen again. That customer’s name? Alvert Aynstyne

this happened when i was a green bean and pretty much only could do register. im a short asian girl and wore makeup a lot to work, and thus a lot of gross dudes would hit on me or make weird comments and i really hated it, but couldnt tell them fuck off "for the customer experience"

one of the weirdest things that happened was a dude in a wheelchair comes in. he is VERY old, wrinkly, grey hairs, all of it. despite being in a wheel chair he is moving along in it with his legs. he has old iv's or something in his arms, and sort of looks like he escaped a hospital but was still wearing normal clothes.

he proceeds to scoot up to the register. its about 4 or 5pm, and we close at 6pm. im ready to go home at that point already so im out of it. he comes up and he asks for a hot mocha, and then goes on about this elaborate story about his dead wife, and how he "courted" her with flowers. and says to me, an 18 year old CHILD basically, "and now whenever i see a pretty lady i give them a flower" and gives me some flower. i awkwardly smile, laugh, take it and say thanks. he then proceeds to scoot away somewhere in the lobby and doesnt pay for his drink. i dont have the power in me to ask him to pay so i just delete the order and try hard to forget the whole ordeal.

later, he comes back, now WALKING completely, no wheel chair and asks where his mocha is. i politely tell him he didnt pay for it so we didnt make it. he says nothing to me and leaves.

later during closing, i find a cigarette by the chair he was sitting at, meaning he somehow smoked it and didnt get caught??? and my manager sees him thru our windows rolling down the street in his wheelchair. in the middle of the street.

it was the weirdest fever dream of a shift. surprisingly, this wasnt the first or last time some creepy man said i reminded them of their dead wife.

Well see my recent post I guess lol good timing
