Do not HONK at me. (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by hecaete47
Jeez. So today, I was on DTW. A customer came through and ordered a drink and food.

When he gets to the window, I tell him his total. He nods and hands over his card. While processing his card, he yells hey and fucking HONKS, this guy has the audacity to HONK his goddamn car horn at me to get my attention.

Because he claims his total was 10 cents, ten WHOLE cents more than it usually is apparently.

Me: Did you get a venti latte and some eggs? (obviously shortening what I was saying bc he had like 5 modifiers on the drink, wasn't about to read them all out)

Him: No

Me: Then what did you get?

Him: A venti iced latte with x, y, and z.

Me: Ok... So I have that, and egg bites.

Him: Yea that's it, who took my order?? My total is wrong

Me: reads the whole ass drink with all the mods

​

Turns out the issue was an extra espresso shot. He just took it and drove off.

Jesus christ some people... DON'T HONK AT ME.

Dude was all like "who took my order??" and I just ignored when he asked that bc I was *not* about to have him yell at the 17-year-old working DTO. :/

Some people, I swear...

A customer honked at me once too. I was doing drive bar and a customer whose payment I had already taken at the window was watching me make her Frappuccino (caramel w/ extra drizzle). As I was about to lid it, she *honked* to get my attention to tell me she wanted even more caramel drizzle.

I swear, so many customers act like actual children, I'm concerned that they have the ability to drive.
