Hear a timer go off and get up to brew more coffee.

Speak French when the customer says "cwossant"

How could I forget… do the caramel macchiato drizzle pattern with my own dish soap at home when I’m doing dishes :(

Try not to laugh in the DT headset when someone orders a Trent-ey strawberry Ass-I-e. 🤦‍♀️

Yeet myself into the dumpster when on a trash run

*scream*

Steam empty syrup bottles

For me it was singing old 90s/80s cartoon theme songs while on bar. Not a great singer but the customers thought it was fun and I didn't care of they didn't lol

Swirl the cup of white mocha and espresso

unionize

Read my username

stick a steam wand in my mouth

Cry in the back

"accidentally" let shots sit 5ever when the customer is being a punk

Cover your hands in hot sanitizer when you’re doing dishes

“Forget” to put the 6 packets of Splenda in there

do my mark out on the order screen in the cafe while the customer is waiting to get their order taken, and walk off and make my drink while they stare

Squeeze empty caramel drizzle bottles into an empty cup so it makes a loud farting noise.

Bathe your hands and arms in the mocha when cleaning a pump of it in the back.

Spray steam into half full milk gallons and make steam rings like the world's best smoker.

Slap unopened milk gallons like fat asses.

Spam your wrist up and down ten times when rinsing a pitcher or lid off (works best with the black blender lids).

Let go of the spigot on the coffee brewer quickly do it springs into the metal and makes the most satisfying ding of my life.

Make a stick of butter our of the vanilla sweet cream solids (AKA Vanilla Sweet Cheese) that appear when my fellow partners don't close the pitcher lid overnight or make sure the red lid is on all the way when they make cubes of it.

Use classic or liquid cane when people deliberately ask for packets of sugar in the drive thru.

Cut a tiny hole in the tips of the chai boxes and pour them into the container from nine feet away.

Pee on my break because there will be one person on the floor if I go at any other time.

Stick my head in the warming oven

Double bag trash cans at home

Unionize

Not ask " is that it?"
And hold up the drive thur in silence

Take the old dark roast coffee and pour it into a travel box and take it home. It’s better than pouring it out and wasting it, not make more coffee when the timer goes off every 10 minutes I just wait until the red light starts blinking (seriously there’s no need to brew a new
batch every 10 fucking minutes), talk shit about customers with large or ridiculous orders behind their back to my co workers. There’s others in forgetting to mention.

Cut people off.

Quit

Act like I don't know what keto is when people order the "keto drink"

answer any beeping oven at a place you don't work at. Verbally. (7-11s, I'm looking at you.)

mix all the sprinkles at that time into a short cup of whip cream and then eat it.

The double click clack...

count to ten shakes every time I’m making a refresher

spit into every mocha cookie crumble that comes through the drive thru
