i had a customer argue with me earlier about how americanos aren’t supposed to be watery. i then asked him if he wanted a latte and he stated again that he wanted an americano. i made him a latte and told him it was an americano and he said “god, finally. you need more training if you don’t know what a simple americano is.”

Some lady called me a liar when I told her we haven't had cinnamon dolce in almost a year. She told me she got it at our store two weeks ago 🤣

I cried for the first time when I was a green bean on cafe bar on my third remake of someones caramel macchiato already 20 minutes behind (while the customer had already watched me mess up the first two) and my dumb ass made it upside down again. i realized immediately as i poured the shots in and i just lost it. thankfully he was really nice and said he would just take it but after that drink someone had to come take over for me and i cried in the mop sink.

had a complete meltdown today when told i worked for a good amount of time with someone who tested positive. i have young family members (<13) in the icu on oxygen right now. the partner that tested positive was vaccinated. but since i’m vaccinated i’m not supposed to self isolate. :) having a grand old time hoping this congestion is not a sign

This is too relatable. You are correct.
