it’s something that every barista dreams of.

now i don’t usually wish ill on people, but it’s really agitating when you’re on window and someone orders a drink and you repeat their order back to them to make sure you got it right, they confirm it’s right, and you know the rest. well, there’s been too many times where someone orders an iced drink and then when they get to the window, they decide to lay this one on you, “that was supposed to be hot.” or vice-versa. now you know for a FACT that you got their order right the first time and for some reason in their brain they decided to change it at the last second. which causes a huge slow down in the line and causes a mini freakout on bar. this is very stressful and f*** you very much.

today a customer ordered an iced caramel macchiato. yes her order was repeated back to her, and yes it was the right one. at the window she says it’s supposed to be hot. we ask if she’d like us to remake it and in a really rude tone says, “just give it to me.” she grabs it by the lid portion of the cup and it spills onto her lap.

the instant joy i felt was immeasurable.

i’ve been having a really rough couple of weeks at work, dealing with entitled customers and all, and it was nice to witness some sweet karma.

ps i promise i’m not a horrible person.
