The way people twist all the words in the infusion teas. "Green peach lemonade?" "Passion whitefruit guava?" "The ginger golden coconut?" Like I love the enthusiasm! And you were very close! Lil story kinda unrelated: I went to the gas station for cigarettes and instead of asking for camels I asked for a caramel macchiato and we both just stared at each other in silence (they at least know I work at Starbucks) I think about that every day.

Also no amount of changing words will seem to get people to say what size they want the first time around.

Had a “strawberry aloha” once.
And a woman wanted a white chocolate mocha but she didn’t know what it was called (...) So she ordered “that White Russian drink.”

We have one woman who always calls nitro "nitrous". The first time I had to turn off my headset so she wouldn't hear me burst out laughing.
(Then she pulled up to the window blasting Pat Benetar. I think I wanna be friends with her 😆)
