The amount of stories I have regarding the kids is incredible at this point, but I figured this one would be nice to share, since yesterday was Valentine’s Day.
Oh, young love, and uncensored public displays of affection by 16 year olds :,) I was on the drive through bar in the middle of the after school rush, and even though making the gremlin’s drinks wasn’t my job, I couldn’t help but be distracted by the two children with their tongues down each others throats only feet away. And my poor coworker Chelsea, responsible for the endless venti waters and caramel fraps being ordered at rapid speed, had no other view than this one.
Listen, this shit is disgusting. Honestly! I don’t care if you’re 16 or 61!!! It’s a distraction and honestly no one wants to see that. So I waited for my moment. There they were, in their own little world, and I let out a little “hey!” That time wasn’t loud enough, so I said it again, with my chest this time, “HEY!”
They stop, look at me dumbfounded, the boy with a smirk and the poor girl beet red, and all I said was...
“Love is beautiful. Please do not make out in my lobby”
The lil girl’s friend that was third wheeling seemed impressed...the couple, not so much

I had some guy slap his girlfriend’s ass in front of me and I started laughing a little too loudly

Ah, I imagine the endless torment of “tik tok drinks” is upon you as well.

An uncanny amount for sure!! It’s pretty painful. They’re evolving too. Last week one of them came to the register, told my shift supervisor that a boy came up to her while she was drinking her mocha frap, steal it, and said, “thanks for the drink”. She asked if we would please remake her frap, and my shift did! Call me crazy but I don’t believe it for a second, watch it become the next tik tok trend 🤣

I had an adult couple literally cling on to each other, make out, then grab each other’s asses while they’re ordering. I wanted to walk out so bad. I made an uncomfortable face but apparently they thought it was appropriate to continue this over the top PDA

I see it all of the time. We are about 1 block away from high school. I also hate the fact that many kids make a mess and not clean up after themselves. I can't imagine being right across from high school
