Say extra *EXTRA* ONE MORE TIME (i.redd.it)

Lmao I do this too. I swear, so many customers would be happy if we gave them a straw and a pail of caramel drizzle

cringeqween13 [OP] 64 points 2y ago

We have regular caramel again (for now) and at this point when we run out again I'm not even gonna feel bad. Like YALL ARE THE REASON WE'RE RUNNING OUT!! If you didn't ask for this much it would last.

the_coffeegirl 25 points 2y ago

LOL, long ago when I was a barista, we would make ourselves cups with whipped cream, caramel and mocha drizzles and eat it with a spoon for that late shift pick me up.

Kaluskydrak 13 points 2y ago

Heat up a brownie add whip on top with dark caramel and mocha drizzle in an oatmeal bowl 🙏🏼

_mxrx 4 points 2y ago

you should try a warmed up coffee cake with caramel drizzle and mocha drizzle, it’s life changing 😩

gay_robots 62 points 2y ago

So THIS is where the shortage is coming from!

/s

Honestly you’re not totally wrong. Our drizzle supply would make a lot more drinks if every third person didn’t ask for extra extra curmuhl wallz

cringeqween13 [OP] 27 points 2y ago

It's every 3rd person? At my store it's like every other drink (even the ones that don't come with caramel) that want this

Sauceyd0ugh 43 points 2y ago

Would you like some caffeine with your sugar?

cringeqween13 [OP] 33 points 2y ago

It was a vanilla bean. Its literally an overpriced milkshake

Sauceyd0ugh 3 points 2y ago

shit i didnt even realize that. \*would you like some milk with your sugar?\*

WildcardBuffalo 33 points 2y ago

Had a customer who dead-ass wanted caramel drizzle to the first ridge on her venti-size iced caramel macchiato.

Michelle if you are reading this I hope that your teeth have rotted.

the_monkey_socks 16 points 2y ago

We have one who asks "I want two inches!" And BRINGS A FRIGGIN RULER. Ughtthrhesps

mabbean 32 points 2y ago

there’s a guy that comes thru almost everyday and asks for “extra extra extra extra extra” caramel drizzle on his macchiato. we’re out of reg caramel drizzle so he asks for the dark caramel…on top. he’s so annoying so i gave him literally half a venti cup of straight dark caramel

sydbey_ 11 points 2y ago

I do this and I don’t even feel guilty, just disgusted

hctiB_bmuD 25 points 2y ago

I swear, caramel drizzle is like crack for some people

cringeqween13 [OP] 18 points 2y ago

SERIOUSLY like at this point we should just sell the bottles of caramel with a straw

Kaluskydrak 1 points 2y ago

They act like it’s crack 😂

sir_ramen 7 points 2y ago

I think post's like these should be tagged NSFW lol.

“Extra extra caramel. Like even if you think it’s enough, it’s not nearly enough.”

jdsalingersdog 6 points 2y ago

Just make eye contact while you squeeze that last layer on top.

Jgrinn 6 points 2y ago

That is disgusting. Delicious, but disgusting.

cringeqween13 [OP] 15 points 2y ago

I wouldn't even say delicious

[deleted] 5 points 2y ago

& then they complain there’s too much. 😂

cringeqween13 [OP] 9 points 2y ago

When ive added this much extra ive never gotten a complaint saying its too much which is honestly sad

[deleted] 3 points 2y ago

I did once. But they complained to my coworker. Lmao.

MrHorse666 4 points 2y ago

Me this morning
oh I’ll give you extra caramel….

SpAcEcAt_94 3 points 2y ago

We have a dude who comes in EVERYDAY and he orders a venti caramel ribbon crunch frappuccino with extra EXTRA EXTRAAAA caramel and crunch... with 5 shots (3 of which are avogato - however you spell that... he wants them on top)... he always wants it in a Trenta cup and I'm like... is he okay?

cringeqween13 [OP] 2 points 2y ago

If you're at a corporate store can't you refuse to serve it in a trenta since there's no "in trenta cup" button?

SpAcEcAt_94 3 points 2y ago

We can but the guy is a regular so we just kinda ended up doing it for him. He legitimately comes everyday to get this monstrosity... so we just kinda ended up doing it for him but he knows it's not standard. We usually do the "ask me" option and just type 'in a trenta cup' for him...

zambiers 3 points 2y ago

At our store, we call this drink ✨pure sugar✨

cringeqween13 [OP] 3 points 2y ago

Did you mean 🌟 diabetes 🌟

zambiers 3 points 2y ago

I think you were thinking of ✨death by starbies✨ I think that’s what we are thinking of

jdg996532 3 points 2y ago

I realize I haven't been a barista for a LONG time but this shit is getting out of hand. Let them run out of caramel. They will survive.

NervosaNervous 3 points 2y ago

When we got down to our last half bottle of caramel, we had someone complain we didn’t put enough caramel on her caramel frapp with extra caramel drizzle. When we told her we used up the caramel that we had on her one drink, she didn’t understand why we couldn’t just put more on 🙄

BurrRens 2 points 2y ago

Then they send it back and say its too much

dead-ramone 1 points 2y ago

We have a regular who asks for “an inch of caramel drizzle” at the bottom of her venti caramel frappuccino 🤢🤮 It absolutely disgusts me every single time.
