Unfortunately can't do tai chi in a latter either
No_Introduction8689 [OP] 13 points 1y ago
idk man. someone might be able to give a customer exactly what they ask for…
Crowchick1731 50 points 1y ago
Vintage is not one of our sizes
Carmen doesn't go into drinks, she also would cost extra
And lastly we don't use Marschino (cherries) in anything

(I had a lasy order a vintage Carmen maraschino once. I still think about it daily)

And we only carry American (or Canadian) Vanilla. The tariffs on the French stuff are prohibitive 🙃
heyitsme963 18 points 1y ago
French vanilla is just what we call hazelnut and vanilla syrups in one drink. I don’t know who decided that or why, but that’s why customers say that. They really just want hazelnut and vanilla, but they usually don’t know that’s what they’re getting.

LMAOO IM DEAD. We also don’t put maggots in our dragonfruit also.
itsjanfam 9 points 1y ago
theres no way someone ordered a "maggot dragon fruit", right..?
No_Introduction8689 [OP] 18 points 1y ago

to quote one of my customers who causes me helpless rage while I’m on bar and can hear her ordering “can I get a ventay brown sugar oatmeal shaken expresso but could you try not to put so much milk in it” I make it normal and she says nothing. Less milk either means another espresso shot or space at the top of the cup.
batman_thedead 17 points 1y ago
just put extra ice so people dont complain it’s not full and so you dont waste a shot, some people also dont want THAT much caffeine :/
drinkliquidclocks 15 points 1y ago
Besides xtra ice you can also shake the crap out of it so it gets foamier and it will fill the cup more
cryingoverspiltmiIk 5 points 1y ago
this is the way
Ordinary-Theory-8289 5 points 1y ago
That’s the whole point of the shaken part. I hate when it’s not shaken enough
happysloth4 1 points 1y ago
I always make sure to thoroughly shake things that aren’t refreshers(refreshers mix easily so you don’t have to shake that hard) but other shaken drinks I try to shake properly and my coworkers make fun of me for it lol
briannuzzi 6 points 1y ago
extra ice!
mollythewiz 7 points 1y ago
we also do not sell soft drinks
No_Introduction8689 [OP] 7 points 1y ago
“hi uh. yeah. do you guys have sprite?” SIR. you missed the mcdonald’s drive through by 50 yards. move along😂
mollythewiz 5 points 1y ago
our store literally shares the same parking lot as a chickfila LMAO
poorparadox 7 points 1y ago
Okay but what if… we did 👉👈
No_Introduction8689 [OP] 8 points 1y ago
which part? the oatmeal? or megan? bc i don’t think the second is legal in the united states. but im just a barista so what do i know
UserNoUsername 6 points 1y ago
you’d be surprised about what things happen in the united states
Diegosnotrod1 6 points 1y ago
Idk man there’s something different about doing tai chi while making lattes, just makes it so much better. Hits different 😩
No_Introduction8689 [OP] 3 points 1y ago
it’s ab the FLAVOR 🥵😩
shxtfxced 5 points 1y ago
we also dont have an incredible breakfast sandwich or a chocolate chip latte :/ sorry to burst ur bubble bradley
nerdyoats 4 points 1y ago
Believe it or not, we actually do use maraschino cherries in a drink! But only if you order at a reserve or roasters. It's a drink called the Melrose! Cold brew and cherry bitters, topped with a maraschino cherry!
Definitely not the same as what they were trying to order probably but it does exist!!
Ashesremindme 3 points 1y ago
No balls in your medicine ball, either. Sorry!
No_Introduction8689 [OP] 2 points 1y ago
none medicine, left sugar.
madydt 3 points 1y ago
okay but i actually put oatmeal in it like two shifts ago and i really enjoyed it for like five minutes
Familiar_Creme_6974 3 points 1y ago
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
maddawgg710 2 points 1y ago
Do everyone just end up saying the same mistakes in every state?😂
No_Introduction8689 [OP] 2 points 1y ago
i swear it’s like a hive mind thing
drinkliquidclocks 2 points 1y ago
The Megan one kills me, usually it’s just a mistake and they correct themselves but one lady today said it as Megan like 3x during her order. Nooo. Also, i wonder what they think oatmeal in their coffee entails??
No_Introduction8689 [OP] 3 points 1y ago
i had someone call it a dragonfly drink the other day. it was hilarious. my coworker had them repeat it three times and we were all HOWLING. it was glorious.

Nor do we make under the sea drinks or magical ghostbuster tea which apparently is a new nickname for the medicine ball according to one of my customers 😂
kmoonster 1 points 1y ago
The first I get, but what's with asking to put Megan in a drink? Is that some sort of weird innuendo?
No_Introduction8689 [OP] 1 points 1y ago
it’s a slip of the tongue people make when saying mango dragonfruit. so technically yes i made it into an innuendo but it’s not intended that way when customers say it
kmoonster 1 points 1y ago
Ah, that makes sense, hadn't heard that one yet
KenansCloud 1 points 1y ago
This barista is partially responsible for the oatmeal thing lol. I keep saying oatmeal because of that stupid m on the sticker
