ChemicalBarnacle 41 points 2y ago
Then we can blow cigarette smoke in their faces, throw hot water at their windows, and bang on their doors even though they’re closed!

I just want to be snarky when they ask me stupid questions
King_Spamula 20 points 2y ago
I already kinda just act either stupid when they ask stupid questions.

"Is the unicorn cake pop good??"

"What do you mean by 'good'?" or "I don't know, maybe!"

I work at a target Starbucks so I often get are you still open? Our lights are on I’m standing back here in my uniform and it’s the middle of the day so no. Of course we are read the room

I do that with the funnel cake frap!! They order it and I ask if it’s their first time trying it and when they say yes I’ll tell them “best of luck to you” and then come back with - “unless you’re prone to having a pallet for acquired tastes then it might taste a little wonky.”

I’ve been saying we really need a barista clap back day. just advertise what day it is. If somebody throws us attitude we get to give it right back. And if a customer has a problem with it well that’s too damn bad! maybe you shouldn’t have been rude to your barista on barista clap back day!!! I think it would really boost morale to have it like once a month

Have you heard of Dick's Last Resort restaurant? The staff are required to be insulting assholes. Just imagine the joy.
8kate8 3 points 2y ago
Yes exactly!! I was also thinking about a place in Chicago called Ed Debevic’s where they’re really sarcastic and snarky. And it’s fun for customers. We deserve that
VerucaGotBurned 20 points 2y ago

DreyaNova 43 points 2y ago

yourmomsdysonsphere 1 points 2y ago

As a customer I am SO nice and friendly because I KNOW that I might be the only kind person to speak to you yesterday, today and tomorrow.
Icy-Hat-2169 1 points 2y ago
Customer asks for a drink we’re sold out of and I get to scream in their ears as loud as I can. 😍
