Orders like this in the drive thru always make me so mad. Like unless the store is drive thru only please come inside if you have this many drinks

we gave them the first 4 drinks and told them to wait in the parking lot for the rest. 6 of the drinks were frapps so there was just no way we would be able to get them out in a reasonable time.

Omg even worse

Wait, 4 on staff is small? At my store 4 on staff is super rare

for us, especially on a saturday, yes. we are the only drive thru store in about a 20-30 minute radius and are also at the center of town so everyone comes to us! normally we have 6-8 people on a weekend night, but we were able to get through it today :))

My store had that happen on Valentine’s 🙃 you guys did a great job today :)
heygirlhowyoubean 9 points 2y ago
At my old drive thru there was usually at least 6 or 7 people working at a time during peak, so yeah this is small 😭

My store runs 10 part peaks on weekends 😭
l_wolfnightshade 4 points 2y ago
My store needs at least 5 to stay afloat throughout the day. Peak usually has 6+

Anyone else notice how the drive-thru print on the sticker went from DRIVETHRU to drive-thru? A tiny change in the stickers but I love it
Raspberry_Just [OP] 2 points 2y ago
YES!!!! i love it so much. our mobile tickets didn’t change though :/

I’m so sorry 😭😭one time someone came through drive and ordered 18 different fraps then refused to move forward and park somewhere I felt really bad bc I had already left

I'm in a licensed location, I get crazy lines and long wait times. We are lucky if there are 2 of us overlapping. We get orders like this. I cry on the inside when it's like that. Christmas eve in a kroger, in a small town with 1 corporate store that lost power, I had 2 other people... it was a non stop line of orders just like this. We have 3 blender pitchers, 1 blender and 1 espresso machine that pulls 1 at a freaking time. I feel for all of you.

My location is very similar so I understand your pain 1000%. My store is located in a grocery store in a very rich part of town and the closest Starbucks to us is 30 minutes away

It’s like two steps; not sure why this is inconvenient.
Raspberry_Just [OP] 40 points 2y ago
the lemonade isn’t inconvenient, it’s the fact that the person ordered 11 drinks in drive thru during a rush!
Caramel_Muchacho 26 points 2y ago
Ah, yeah. Completely looked past that! 11 drinks is pretty ridiculous for DT, let alone peak.
Raspberry_Just [OP] 17 points 2y ago
i know! i was wearing a headset and heard the person ordering keep going and told my coworker on dto, “omg!! cut them off!!!”
