Make that to-go please.


I don't work in a cafe, I work in a Kiosk. All our drinks are to-to.
Meant to-go, but I'm pretty sure you all got that.

Idk if you guys realize this but sometimes on mobile order it over specifies your drink even if you didn’t mean to :) its just an error, happens all the time at my store

I’ve never had it happen 😳
sneeze_trigger 14 points 3y ago
If my observations guide me correctly, I believe it only happens when a person selects a modifier, but then changes it back to standard in the app. And yes, also cranky folks who want to be extra specific
floralyu 5 points 3y ago
Yeah, ive seen it happen when they like accidentally make a modification. Most often i get like, dragon drinks that say “iced”
Wonderful_Nightmare 2 points 3y ago
Ohh. I was wondering why that happened sometimes
kritika30 26 points 3y ago
How much was she charged for it
gregorylant [OP] 19 points 3y ago
Still the same price because she just reiterated standards 🙄
bootrick 14 points 3y ago
A lot of customers don't know the standards
kritika30 4 points 3y ago
Either some people are rich or they are dumb enough 😂
KatySheets 31 points 3y ago
She’s Karen-splaining.
SteampoweredClock 5 points 3y ago
Fuck that got me

If you select latte in the app, "2% milk" and "steamed" are listed options automatically selected by the app. So it probably automatically printed it out the way it shows up there. 😕

This sub has created this toxic culture of automatically insulting and calling people Karen (even though that is unfortunately her name), instead of giving them the benefit of the doubt.
hnnhddd 2 points 3y ago
Yes, usually if you even go in and look at the modifications, but don’t change anything, this happens.
eat-reddit-tv 2 points 3y ago
Right!

It’s not unreasonable to want what you order. “Karen” is an overused slur that isn’t applied to men. And my most dramatic customers have been men.

Whenever we get tickets that say obvious things like ‘venti latte in a venti cup’ I always say yup makes sense to me 😂
YellowSphinx 8 points 3y ago
Maybe she hadn’t gotten Starbucks since they stopped making everything with whole milk. Maybe
Assiqtaq 11 points 3y ago
The standard changed from whole to 2% the year I started working, I began training in whole only to have to switch to 2% by the end of my training. I was first hired in 2007.
cs_phoenix 7 points 3y ago
And maybe she hadn’t got Starbucks since we started steaming milk /s

Your comment is a reasonable possibility though haha
bbun223 3 points 3y ago
The best is when customers say “a Starbucks blonde latte” oh thank goodness I would never of known 😂
GymLeaderFlame 2 points 3y ago
Lol reminds me for one regular, we need to add “liquid cane sugar” for his passion tango tea since we try to explain to him the default is sweetened but he says it’s not sweet enough unless we specifically put it has liquid cane sugar
