Banana's for breakfast, but they're so used to the insane amount of sugar intake that even banana's taste bad.

[deleted] 142 points 2y ago

I don’t understand why the stickers can’t go in order.

Frapp roast / shots, milk, syrup, ice mods, topping, ask me.

Like I don’t know how to program, but I’ll figure it out if someone will let me change it.

sten45 43 points 2y ago

"Ask me" was my life line when I was slammed on DTO

KelseyDove 8 points 2y ago

Good question! I wonder if it’s because customers want their drink a certain way? Or whoever programmed this didn’t think about putting it order?? 🤔

[deleted] 19 points 2y ago

I honestly think didn’t think about it when they programmed it.

Becquerell 10 points 2y ago

Nah, this order wouldn’t make any sense at all if it were made in that order.... it just gets added to the ticket in a weird way. Like the last one, no one gets syrup on top of their frappuccino lol

taynay101 9 points 2y ago

I'm guessing whoever ordered it never actually worked behind the bar.

Sometimes when I go grocery shopping I check out the designs on boxes. You can definitely tell the designers who have worked as a cashier because they make the barcode easy to find and scan.

ih8yogurt 5 points 2y ago

SO ACCURATE!!! And you can tell the companies that give a shit about the people stocking the shelves with their product (for example NOOSA brand yoghurt (that’s how they spell it) is one of the best when it comes to packaging for the stockers, they put GAMES on the cardboard!!! And ways to get freebies!)

M_Night_Sammich 92 points 2y ago

Who are these people good god. Usually the long mobile ones look like someone had fun with the app, but this one looks 100% intentional. Like how did you ever decide that these were tasty and worth the $30 they just spent? Plus I’m always worried that they’ll be the type to complain if it’s not perfect.

blueteas 44 points 2y ago

for it to say 4 caramel sauce when that's what it already gets stresses me out bc are they asking for 4 more?? and if not that's 4 more words giving me a headache

aimsthename88 24 points 2y ago

Caramel sauce is different from the dark caramel sauce a caramel ribbon crunch Frappuccino gets. Regular caramel sauce is the caramel we use for drizzle. It drives me crazy that it’s listed as an option to mix into drinks!

To measure “pumps” of caramel sauce I just squeeze the bottle for like 1 second for each pump.

eat-reddit-tv 5 points 2y ago

I don’t understand. It lists caramel drizzle and caramel sauce.

I read caramel sauce as being pumps from the bottle of Caramel Syrup.

aimsthename88 6 points 2y ago

Caramel syrup is thin (goes in a caramel frap) dark caramel sauce is thick (goes in a caramel ribbon crunch frap), plain caramel sauce is what goes in the caramel drizzle bottle.

If it lists caramel sauce and caramel drizzle, you should basically mix caramel drizzle into the drink as well as put it on top (and on the sides if it says extra caramel drizzle).

ih8yogurt 2 points 2y ago

No caramel sauce is the dark caramel sauce

aimsthename88 2 points 2y ago

Nope! Dark caramel sauce has a different button both on POS and in the Starbucks app.

ih8yogurt 1 points 2y ago

I understand it’s a different button but caramel drizzle is the only thing that comes outta the gravity bottles

queightly 43 points 2y ago

john woke up and chose violence.

ftsktln 41 points 2y ago

Everytime I see an affogato shot I think about this girl who mobile ordered four on top of her frap. I was so confused the whole time and when she got there I asked and she said she didn’t even know what it was but it sounded good........... why.

penguinophile 1 points 2y ago

You had me in the first half, I thought we had the same customer. She ordered 4 adffogato shots on her Frappuccino and then was legitimately angry that they did not stay on top. So she had me make it again. I showed her I was making it the way she wanted. And the laws of physics and thermodynamics would not bend to her will.

Banana? 👁👄👁

xbarbiedarbie 28 points 2y ago

TWO banana 😡

min7yfr3sh 6 points 2y ago

Why is there a banana?!

aimsthename88 13 points 2y ago

Some stores have bananas you can buy or add to Frappuccinos.

min7yfr3sh 3 points 2y ago

I’m guessing to sweeten them? That interesting I’ve never seen that! 😮😮😮

graubenn 9 points 2y ago

When I make my own frappuccinos I use them to sub out the base! Makes the frapps less heavy on the stomach when I drink them 😊

aimsthename88 6 points 2y ago

That or maybe to make it “healthier”?

molgriss 2 points 2y ago

Its a good base substitute and makes it smoother. Honestly just think a thick smoothie and thats the texture

aznguy2020 2 points 2y ago

I've only gotten convinced by another barista to try one with it. It's interesting.

BoltedGates 23 points 2y ago

5:15am. Of course.

maplesyrup4 22 points 2y ago

I’m a customer. Why is this even permitted on the app. There should be like a 4 line limit. If you want more than that, you have to have the balls to ask for it IRL

zydr8te 3 points 2y ago

Starbucks wants people to have the same experience at home. From a corporate standpoint I get it. It results in things like this. From a barista standpoint isn't going to hold up until the customer gets there. It will separate and melt and not be the pretty drink they expect.

ih8yogurt 2 points 2y ago

Also from a barista standpoint we have no idea wtf they actually want

Js_On_My_Yeet 16 points 2y ago

Keep in mind creme based frapps with shots 🙃

[deleted] 16 points 2y ago

That_Tuba_Who 15 points 2y ago

They want cups of blended sugar, with a tiny bit of coffee on top. Send em to DQ for three blizzards and then micky dicks for some watery bean juice to split on top of all three

angelicmckayla 4 points 2y ago

But the banana makes it healthy, right?

That_Tuba_Who 1 points 2y ago

I wonder if this store even has it; mine didn’t when I worked there lol

thedeadwillwalk 13 points 2y ago

It translates to "John's a basic bitch," in English.

kait_lynb 5 points 2y ago

I don’t think John is anywhere near a basic bitch, he’s just a bitch

JMarBrwn 11 points 2y ago

This order must have been almost 50 bucks with all of those modifiers, what a waste of money holy crap!

coffeeaddict3416 10 points 2y ago

37.50 FOR 3 FRAPPES WTFF

InfernalAngelblades 9 points 2y ago

The only solace is knowing that John only gets what fits in a venti cup. I take great pleasure in dumping the rest of these ridiculous, and ridiculously expensive, drinks down the drain. I hope your pillow only has a warm side, John.

drinkliquidclocks 9 points 2y ago

Go back to bed, John. That's way too early for this fuckery.

Somehow the grossest part of those drinks is the banana 🤢

ih8yogurt 2 points 2y ago

Agreed

hilaerious-1 8 points 2y ago

Times like that make me wish I could yell that drink out in a crowded room of customers waiting behind them, and watch them walk up in shame while everyone else realizes why their coffee is taking longer than usual.

VentiEggBite 5 points 2y ago

What are the odds you batch three of one of these with different toppings and our pal John doesn’t notice

stratamaniac 3 points 2y ago

Dont forget an extra pump of "WTF? ?"

cheven20 3 points 2y ago

and sometimes these people order two bananas and they'll ask for the excess to be put in a smaller cup smh

4filth 3 points 2y ago

translation: I hate myself and I hate Starbucks baristas

memeghoul69 3 points 2y ago

This has to be a prank, right? Right????

AvoFromCado 3 points 2y ago

I enjoy making drinks like this😂

catbatparty 3 points 2y ago

I'd just refuse to make shit like this. I do not get paid enough.

meloscav 2 points 2y ago

Just do coke like an adult at that point

jamesyboy4-20 2 points 2y ago

all i see in this pic is diabetes

Keyndoriel 2 points 2y ago

I decipher this as way too extra.

Keyndoriel 2 points 2y ago

The same people wanna complain about mobiles taking forever also do this

lunafreyaknox 2 points 2y ago

I think this loosely translates to diabetic coma in barista speak.

RoaringDragonite 2 points 2y ago

At the end

Customer: how come it’s not thick like a milkshake?

TheRedditTeacher 2 points 2y ago

Let me add a banana cause I'm eating healthy......

ttbug15 2 points 2y ago

Your store still carries bananas?!?!

[deleted] 2 points 2y ago

my brain logged off after reading this and said *windows xp shutdown noise*

cxbar 2 points 2y ago

fuck john all my homies hate john

yayannapav 2 points 2y ago

we should be able to turn drinks like this down

nilrehsttam 2 points 2y ago

Wow this is some of the worst I’ve ever seen

Shuacamole 2 points 2y ago

No.

golden_pinky 2 points 2y ago

2 banana? I'll never understand why they think they know how to make a good drink.

The_unsung_ninny 2 points 2y ago

Translates : “I’m an asshole”

hopelovepeace33 2 points 2y ago

John is an ASSHOLE!

sadroommate 1 points 2y ago

Ah yes I believe they meant to write DIABETES.

molgriss 1 points 2y ago

Non of those drinks are fitting in a Venti cup. I'm willing to bet the customer asked where the leftover went

TheRedHare 1 points 2y ago

Diabetes

cozyboy249 1 points 2y ago

Honestly John ...........

Assiqtaq 1 points 2y ago

John likes a banana.

Makorra45 1 points 2y ago

This hurts too much 😭

coffeebuoy 1 points 2y ago

is this a joke? this sounds like a joke. they’re gonna lose a good half of each frappuccino with all those shots and syrups.

Partymixvix 1 points 2y ago

What the holy fuck is this...praying none of y’all get something like this ever again

wuxtrywuxtry 1 points 2y ago

Are those even drinkable? Someone at a banana store please test. I bet they are so sweet you can't even taste anything

clever-science 1 points 2y ago

I hate John.

hellopie7 1 points 2y ago

I love how the modifications are all over the frapping sticker too, like almost in no order that makes sense for us to read when attempting to make it.

LilKaySigs 1 points 2y ago

Ever notice how caramel ribbon crunches are always the ones bastardized to the max

CigsInTheHouse 1 points 2y ago

DefinitelyNotALion 2 points 2y ago

CigsInTheHouse 1 points 2y ago

c_reckless35 1 points 2y ago

DefinitelyNotALion 8 points 2y ago
