Turkey pesto punani (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by duiopgffvf
I always find it funny the way people mispronounce things, not in a making fun of them way, but in a light hearted way to try and make work more positive and less serious. Some of my favorites are strawberry ikea, trenti, and expresso. Anyways, the other day a woman comes through drive and ordered a “turkey pesto punani” i kid you not. Funniest drive through moment 10/10 we were all laughing our asses off on headset 😂😫

If only you knew what "punani" means here in Hawaii. That order would take on a WHOLE new meaning. 🤣

wait what does it mean
sailorgrumpycat 8 points 1y ago
It means in Hawaii what it means as a slang term everywhere else, a colloquialism for pussy.

just last night we had this girl order an “iced chee”. i was on dto and i go- “i’m sorry?” and she says it again. i was like “an iced chai tea latte?” and she’s like yeah. she went to order a cake pop but we were all out and then SHE SAYS IT AGAIN after i said it correctly??? “okay i’ll just do the iced chee then”. this wasn’t like a language barrier or anything. just.. low on brain cells.

Today this lady just wanted a double shot of espresso but she asked for like a "doubleve" and I was like uhh isn't that W in French
sailorgrumpycat 3 points 1y ago
She distinctly said "to blave". And, as we all know, "to blave" means "to bluff".

i have a COWORKER that says ‘expresso’ and ‘synonym’ (cinnamon) among other things i can’t think of off the top of my head
also several regulars that order a ‘carmal machiata’
a girl tried to order a ‘tai chi latte’ the other day
