Love seeing people live my dream.
I bet it was quiet.

On top of not being able to make fraps, we ran out of vanilla, whips, strawberry açaí, venti cups, g/v flat lids, all of our breakfast sandwiches, and lemonade!!! Our delivery only had almond milk rip.

Edit: to clarify, we ran out of both the cream and coffee base! And yes, drive times were amazing, primarily because most people read the sign that said we were out of fraps and left. It was so peaceful and I hope every barista will get to experience it one day.

This is my fantasy, one time I broke our only blender and it was heaven for 2 hours
Mayachees 33 points 1y ago
When I was at my other store, our only blender broke. It had to be replaced. It took weeks to get the new one. It was magical!

I was gonna say that but it’s so true 😂 elbow bump ❤️
Yurodivy1906 30 points 1y ago
Happened at our store a few weeks back. It was the most beautiful two shifts at this job I have ever experienced. 272*

this is my dream
LeiyoZynne 23 points 1y ago
Angry customers? Yes.
No making frapps? You betcha.
Best drive times ever? For sure.
Hotel? Trivago.
ikealamps97 22 points 1y ago
This happened at my store and they told us to make frappes without the base. We had a lot of complaints but management didn’t care hahahah
jackissosick 9 points 1y ago
That's pretty gross lol
Environmental-Air781 7 points 1y ago
That’s not right, people are paying five plus dollars for any frap, lol just like call it a day already. Also like for us pouring basless fraps is hell 😂
Darcie_Autham 3 points 1y ago
Was gonna upvote but you made a cardinal sin of referring to a Starbucks beverage with a McDonald’s name. Smh… 😜
ikealamps97 3 points 1y ago
Hahahaha oops! I had one yesterday so I guess it subconsciously stuck 🤣

wishing this happens at my store
FfierceLaw 16 points 1y ago
In districts where we don’t post lists or signs like mine this would be painful at DTO
asdfjklyss 16 points 1y ago
You could also just mark out the frap bases in item availability to make it easier than marking out every frap

BINGO
shinymutt 12 points 1y ago

canithoe 7 points 1y ago
Omg we run out all the time but frappes are our best seller so we still have to try to make them😫😫
BatWeary 6 points 1y ago
Our store had so many frap/blended refresher orders one day that it broke BOTH of our blenders in 2 hours. The blender was being used to much that it overheated and fried the whole thing.
chickennnnujjets 6 points 1y ago
the way im going to manifest this asap 😩
luvduvbunny 4 points 1y ago

Best. Day. Ever
Pretend-Coconut-3767 2 points 1y ago
happens a lot in my store at this point we always just use our cream base before we get a lot of angry customers.
Keyndoriel 2 points 1y ago
Oh god, why can't it ever be my store?

Guess I'll just keep hoping for the small chance of a customer busting down the drive through speaker.
nyackitoff 3 points 1y ago
Don't. Our drive thru speaker is broken and they just send us outside to take orders 😭. And when there's not enough of us for that, we have them pull to the window to order and it's so awkward just standing there and waiting for the drink to come out
Angryman182 2 points 1y ago
I quit a couple weeks ago, and that would have been interesting
Sassycamo39 1 points 1y ago
