Short customer rant (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by rendercilla
Today a POLICE OFFICER came into the cafe and ordered. Right after I put his drink on the hand off table, he reached around the plexiglass to get a drink stopper and was like "Ooof, I have short arms." I'm standing there, just a few feet away, looking confused. I didn't say anything but was thinking... it's placed out of reach for a reason!!! And you couldn't have just asked for one??? When the baristas on bar saw him reaching they said "Oh, you're not supposed to do that. We're supposed to hand it to you." To which the POLICE OFFICER shrugs and replies, "Oh, well I don't follow the rules. I know that sounds bad, but yeah ..."

Just had to share that lovely story.

The comments for this remind me of a humorous tweet I saw a few years ago. “Remember that kid who shut off the Super Nintendo when you were beating him in Street Fighter? He’s a cop now.”

Oh yeah, we know how the police don’t follow the rules...

So do we. Wear a mask and stay inside and maybe you’ll be able to soon.
