sorry ma'am they didn't cover "inducing prophetic dreams" in our training

Have y’all not finished your training modules? “Prophetic dreams” was assigned alongside spring training.

I had a customer berate one of my green beans because we didn't have banana bread and was saying something about how we owe her a cake pop because her kid really wanted the loaf. I missed most of this when it happened, but was called over by my barista and was caught up on the situation as I was walking over.
I saw her body language change the second I came over and tried the same thing with me but nicely. I told her I can sell her a birthday cake pop and she got all in a huff again.
Custies are insane

lmao lovely. my banana karen was thru drive, so everyone got to have a real time reaction, including my shift, who all laughed with me at the shenanigans. and then my shift was the one who picked up the phone

Just simply make it yourself if you’re gonna complain that much
greenChainsaws [OP]13 points1y ago
im not positive they can see past their own nose long enough to do so

I actually heard that Publix also sells banana bread that tastes identical to ours. So you could always tell them to go to the grocery store 😂😂

We had someone call the store to complain that her 3 hour old drink was made with goat's milk

"I'm sorry, I'm sold out of lemon loaf. I can go get you one out of the freezer, but it will be frozen. Is that all right?" I have had people tell me yes, and people say, "oh, it'll be frozen then? Never mind." I have no problems with being paid to walk to the freezer (I work in a kiosk, it takes a few minutes to go to the freezer) and get a whatever they want. Does not bother me a bit.

I'm not serving folks frozen food dude
Assiqtaq1 points1y ago
I mean that is fine. I don't know why people are downvoting selling frozen pastries. If you are okay with selling thawed pastries, selling a frozen one that'll be fine in not too long isn't bad. I also have a gentleman who insists on buying his cookies frozen because that's how he likes them. I have several people around Christmas who want frozen cake pops because they want to give them to the grandchildren tomorrow, not today, and they'll keep and store better until then. But sure, let's arbitrarily put our refusal on this line now. Because somehow that is what is bad.

We're supposed to say yes to every other god forsaken extra labor nonsense thing they want, why not frozen pastries, right?
Assiqtaq1 points1y ago
Well, you gotta remember from my post, I don't work at Starbucks. I work in a kiosk in a grocery store. I don't care if grabbing a pastry from the freezer takes me away from the kiosk. And when I do, 90% of the time there is no one else available to help customers, because we generally work alone. I mean, that last part I didn't type before. But long story short, it gets me away for a minute or so and only is a problem for customers. The grocery store doesn't care. I probably wouldn't do it if I worked in a stand-alone, but then again if I worked in a stand-alone we'd be pulling more pastries every day. We pull maybe 20 or so for the day, every day.
