“Do you have mayo packets?”(self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by canidieyet_
Right. So I was on DTO and I answer the headset once the car pulls up to the speaker. The lady is ordering her drinks, whatever, then she says, “do you guys by chance sell burgers” (????) No. We don’t. We sell coffee and poor excuses of pastries and breakfast sandwiches. She sounds disappointed. And I mean absolutely devastated. I offer a roasted ham and Swiss (we were out of the paninis that day) and she’s like, okay I’ll try it. She gets to the window and asks . “Can I have some mayonnaise and mustard? I forgot to tell them at the speaker” and I was like, bro we don’t have those. And when I say she looks shocked, I mean she looked at me like I have three heads. She goes “what about ketchup????” I was like .. “we don’t sell sauce packets like that here? We have raw honey, sriracha, cream cheese and avocado spread but we don’t have mayo, mustard or ketchup” genuinely upset, says it’s “stupid” well, most people don’t eat mayo, mustard, or ketchup on their ham egg and Swiss croissants.

I get asked for jelly at least 3 or 4 times a month.
voigtlandera68 points2y ago
Honestly though we should have jelly...

At my canadian store we have strawberry jam for no charge
SkylerSayys18 points2y ago
We have a guy who asks me at least once a week if we carry jelly like its the first timd hes asked this question. Every week he is angry and sad that we don't. Bro, save yourself some emotions and just stop asking
finzablazin1 points2y ago
I’m in the states and we have strawberry and grape jelly
SunflowerTeaTime3 points2y ago
What state are you in? I’ve worked in CO and MO and didn’t carry jelly.

I’ve been asked this more than once! Like yuck! I’ve handed out bacon Goudas and was asked for mustard, then I handed out DSB and the lady asked for mayonnaise, I’m a weirdo and don’t like mayonnaise lol
canidieyet_ [OP]33 points2y ago
I mean, I like mayonnaise. But not enough to eat it on a DSB.

at my store we have ketchup packets- i'm in canada though.

I feel like ketchup isn’t a super disgusting thought to put on a breakfast sandwich bc a lot of people eat ketchup with eggs but mayo and mustard?? 🤮

Mustard with ham is bomb

We were throwing 80% of it out so my SM stopped ordering it lol

Yes! A man asked for mayo after he got his impossible sandwich. My manager was like "no, sir. This is Starbucks.... No." It was one of the first times I've seen her genuinely thrown off by a customer request. Lol.

One time a lady asked me if she could get sautéed mushrooms and onions on her bacon gouda.
Ma’am, this is not Burger King. You cannot have it your way.
On a different note, back in 2014/2015 or whenever it was that we had the hazelnut drizzle, I used to put a thin layer of it on my sausage egg and cheese sandwich. Made it taste like a McGriddle.

We had a regular that would owner a Bacon Gouda and put honey on the bread. Weird thing? She mentioned doing the same, but with grape jelly from McDonalds etc.
dicksoutforpoppunk11 points2y ago
Ok but honestly have you ever put honey on a sausage cheddar and egg because that shit is goooood

I had a lady ask if we could make a BLT the other day. Smh.

Someone wanted us to add lettuce and tomato to their DSB and was very surprised when I told him they were prepackaged

I had a woman that came through my drive-thru one time that asked for a large Sprite at the window. I had to tell her we didn't have Sprite and she absolutely did not believe me. She really thought that we had a fountain drink dispenser next to the espresso machines and that I could just give her a Sprite like she was at McDonalds.
Herry_Up7 points2y ago
A sprite sounds good rn tho

WHAT DO YOU MEAN "POOR EXCUSE" OF PASTRIES??
Starbucks pastries not ONLY are better portioned than most companies, but they are absolutely goddamn delicious carbohydrates and should be RESPECTED AS SUCH!! don't you dare talk down about that Starbucks Banana Bread. May Kevin Johnson have mercy on your paycheck.
canidieyet_ [OP]1 points2y ago
😂😂 in all fairness, that comment was from the fact that every single pastry (the cheese danish, loaves, muffins etc not the sandwiches ) would break in half. Had to throw away like 10 banana breads away because they just wouldn’t stay intact. I’m still upset over it 😭
stfuari6 points2y ago
i mean i think we should have ketchup, like for the breakfast sandwiches bc thats actually useful, but mayo and mustard??? heathens

The other day someone asked me if I had any pepper packets to mix into his chai to make it more spicy. It took every ounce of willpower not to make a face.
dodofishman6 points2y ago
lol traditionally chai is actually made with whole black peppercorns, the spice blend we have should have it

I once had a polite foreign family order Frappuccinos at the order speaker, nothing out of the ordinary. When he gets to the window he asks, with a dead stare, “can we order two medium French fries?”. Saying I needed to look away to hold in my laughter is criminally understating what went through my head at that moment.
[deleted]1 points2y ago
This is unrelated but my store has ketchup packages
petitemae1 points2y ago
oh my god i had this today too! 3 girls ordered sausage breakfast sandwiches and came around back to ask if we had mayo packets. when i said no and offered ketchup, she goes "why would i want that?" like ?????
