A venti in a tall cup.....lol
I think people do that just to mess with us sometimes.

They'll stop doing it when they get a tall drink and they've paid for a venti

may be another instance of "what?! I thought 'yall' meant large?"
Only-Dog7316 24 points 1y ago
I am not going to split a venti into 2 talls against policy. Unless they wanna pay my rent they will have to follow the rules just like me.
diphenhydranautical [OP] 12 points 1y ago
yeah i just made it in a venti
Only-Dog7316 8 points 1y ago
I probably would do same. Nobody sane would pay for venti and expect a tall.

Literally had this situation where someone got a venti mocha frappuccino and asked to split it in two tall cups. Shift lead was like “alright bet” and proceeds to do that but of course we all know if you do that there’s still some room even with the whip cream and she was like “I see what he’s doing and he paid for a venti and that’s the amount he’s getting. He complains then he can pay for another drink, we are not playing this game anymore”. Luckily the guy didn’t care but man I love my store for not putting up with nonsense lol

Broo same we have a regular who always comes through drive thru and if she sees anyone making her frappuccino’s that she doesn’t know or approve of besides like 3 partners, she will immediately come back and have them remade no matter what. She always gets 2 shots each in venti mocha frapps then she wants the excess in another cup with whip on top. So basically a whole free one then if she comes back like usual she will get 3 more free drinks 🤯

customers are actually aliens lol what is this
betsylang 11 points 1y ago
I would put the venti cup with the drink in the tall cup.

When I get these I generally assume the customer wants the venti drink split between two tall cups. Technically not right and really should just ring them up for two tall drinks but I have seen people successfully save money doing this because they know we don't have the energy to argue. 🤷‍♀️

Or maybe this customer just got the size names confused. Who knows.
diphenhydranautical [OP] 6 points 1y ago
i hadn’t actually thought about that! i just made it in a venti and we never got a call complaining about it so 🤷

I had a customer get a venti iced latter with whole milk in a grande cup.....it was cheaper to do that than ordering a grand with an extra shot. It was still confusing.
diphenhydranautical [OP] 3 points 1y ago
oh that kinda makes sense?? not really but i get what they’re trying to do. if i didn’t take their order and that came up on my bar i’d be so confused lol
galaxydisco17 3 points 1y ago
Same, I suggested that they order a tall in a grande cup with two extra shots. It'll be the same price, but less confusing to the next person that takes his order.

Why do I feel like they mixed up the two sizes?

Almost always this is just people being complete morons and not knowing the size names. They expect it in the trenta cup. I just put it in the venti cup 🤷🏻‍♀️ you’re not getting a Trenta latte or two tall drinks for free
diphenhydranautical [OP] 1 points 1y ago
i mean to be fair the sizes don’t make the most sense, especially if you don’t come here often. but yeah i just kept it in the venti and they never called to complain 🤷
