DUDE! I could write a fucking novel on this bitch. I swear. First let’s begin with her method, mobile order, our favorite! Back in the day, she’s order 12 shots of espresso in a venti hot cup, 13 pumps of WM and 1 classic, x2% milk (since there’s so much room in the cup), and then another quad espresso in a short cup on the side, since you can’t order 16 FUCKING SHOTS ON MOBILE. Y’all already know how long it takes to make that drink, let alone make cafe drinks as well! And y’all already KNOW sometimes that drive bar has to double up! She comes in here hooting and hollaring 2 MINUTES AFTER PUTTING HER DRINK THROUGH! Fussing, cussing, demanding a refund. Every night, sometimes twice a day. Then...she evolved...........Venti hot toasted white mocha, 7 toasted white mocha, 1 classic, 8 shots, no foam, no whip, no topping, AND a venti ICED toasted white mocha, 5 shots, 7 toasted, LIGHT ice (3 cubes, or else)...all mobile order. Even more, she has a son! (And a daughter but well focus on Kevin) unfortunately, he’s referred to as the spawn. We’re lucky when he comes to collect...but then the backlash is worse when her drinks are “wrong”. I have a photo of a note my 6 year partner supervisor wrote to my manager that his interaction with said customer was demoralizing and he refuses to make her bevs again. This bitch is wild

Alicat-and-Quasar 13 points 3y ago
They can post the review itself and scribble out location type evidence
bestboah 11 points 3y ago

Ugh. We have one that gets a "grand latte" but basically we have to steam two pitchers of grande milk (aerate the whole time)...let milk sit for thirty seconds to scoop bubbles off. Wants two cups, one cup with one raw sugar one equal, other cup nothing. One ristretto from right bar but milk has to be aerated from left. Push pour cup with shot to 3/4 then scoop foam. Put rest of milk in other cup.

I hope they have to make their drink in purgatory.

Sorry what? This sounds like they should be charged for two drinks. Can you outline what’s in each cup one cup at a time so I can understand better? It sounds like one is a grande single cappuccino with one raw sugar one equal and the second is a grande single ristretto latte. With the amount of milk and labor involved that is absolutely two drinks and should be charged as such. I would bring this up with your SSV or SM if SSVs are all complying with the way it’s ordered or if your SM is complying with it your SOL and I’m sorry!

if i had this woman as a customer i would simply jump out the drive thru window and run away

Your partner is the tits, she honestly sounds like a ban. I never understood why people are so shitty... like what's your story you witch? What made you this way????

I'm sorry you have to deal with her :( honestly I wouldn't take it anymore, especially if she just keeps going like this.

Also... a book sounds good I'm super in lol

If they’re that bad it sounds like grounds for a CT according to third place policies.
