I'm pretty new and today I was on bar while it was slow. Or so we thought. We got this crazy random influx of people, I'm talking early morning rush level. I was freaking out and then someone orders this drink:

Trenta Pink Drink,
Almond Milk,
5 pumps classic,
Raw sugar,
5 Strawberry Puree,
3 scoops Strawberries,
3 scoops berries.

I literally didn't know what strawberry puree was and I was told it's a frappe ingredient. Wtf

At least it was the last drink of my shift; I bolted out of the store.

how does one do 5 strawberry purée?

No freaking clue. But my shift just had me put some in
melllles 3 points 3y ago
yeah usually we just pour it in, I don’t think there’s a possible way to measure it lol

Make sure it gets rung up correctly so at least they have to pay for it! Maybe once they pay $$ they wont order it again.

That doesn't seem that bad, though? Well, sugar levels are off the chart lol. Just take one order at a time and breathe. I've had a few people bitch about dumb things but they're bitching over coffee, COFFEE! Their life must be pretty pathetic if they are going to fuss at a person working a minimum wage job over wait times or they didn't get their 7 coffees at one time.

It's a luxuary. They don't need starbucks to survive.
