“I have two drinks for Stephanie” (self.starbucksbaristas)

“Uhm, I ordered six drinks? Where are the rest of them??”
Well Stephanie, if I had the talent and physical capability to simultaneously make all six of your drinks at once, I sure as shit wouldn’t be wasting that talent working at a Starbucks, now would I?

Or when you have ALL the drinks ready, but unfortunately only have two hands to hand out two at a time. "UmmmmmMMMMM I ordered 3 of these?"
Yeah lemme just hand it to you with my third tentacle.

I usually have to bluntly reply that I know, I only have two hands, it's right here. Then they look at me sheepishly and skulk away.
Or as I'm finishing making the drink, "Umm I ordered a mocha?"
"Oh, the one I have in my hand? It's almost done." Or I'm swamped with drinks, and they're all coming out one by one, chronological as ordered. "It's in the queue, they're coming out one at a time, *HAHAHA!"*

You’re my spirit animal. Thrive. Live on my friend. Be the barista some of us are too scared to be. Carry on and sass on.

Or my favorite is when people go through the mobile app and accidentally order 6 drinks when they meant 6 pumps of syrup. It’s all fun and games until we’re busy and you wanted one drink but for reason you didn’t bother to look at your total which was $40+ for one drink?? 🥴

How do you accidentally order 6 drinks?? I don’t think there’s a “copy” or “quantity” button on the app...
[deleted] 1 points 3y ago
Omg it literally happens ALL the time. People will pull through the drive thru or come in and be SO confused about why there’s 6 drinks for them.

Here’s your tall mocha! Have a great day!
“I also got a bacon Gouda”
Well I’m the one making drinks my guy I don’t know shit about your bacon Gouda but it’ll most likely be out in just a minute given the person on warming is also swamped with stickers.

When someone orders a Bacon Gouda in drive thru, I always tel them that “that sounds Gouda to me” and then I ask what else I can get for them.
turnedtechGodhead 1 points 3y ago
YES

There’s so many puns to be made with our product names, it’s great 👍🏼

I’ve been getting a lot of these lately! Like, “I have a latte for Peter!”
“Uhh I have 2 others where are those?”
..... “they’ll be right out!” 🙃

Had an older man come in and order 3 tall vanilla lattes but one with a double shot. I call his name and told him that those ones are the regular vanilla lattes and he’s like “I ordered one with 2 shots where is it” well honey it’s right behind me if you were patient. I didn’t even tell you have a good day yet so clearly i ain’t finished

I’d try to avoid that by calling out “first two of four for Stephanie” didn’t change the outcome but it made the other customers laugh when I correct them.

barista: “first two of four for Stephanie”
Stephanie: “umm...i ordered FOUR drinks...!”
barista: “..........FIRST TWO of FOUR for STEPHANIE”
i love that

Or when they’re like: “yeah I asked for 16 pumps of caramel in this Frappuccino and it just doesn’t look like there’s enough.”
My thoughts: “shit - do you just want a whole tube of caramel we have in the back? Because that’s literally what you’re going to be eating at this rate anyway.”
