Me: “…. MOBILE ORDER FOR TRENTA VANILLA SWEET CREAM COLD BREW!”
Pixiedusted1321 [OP] 35 points 1y ago
Half the time I don’t even call the name on it. They tend to come through drive anyways.

My manager told me the other day “okay guys let’s make sure that we’re calling out mobiles!” But I don’t understand how they’re expecting me to call out mobiles when nobody is even inside the fucking store to begin with 🙃

I mean I call them out if there’s a group of people waiting in the cafe but obviously I’m not gonna sit here yelling names to nobody If the cafe is empty

Sometimes they expect me to say the name and gets annoyed I don’t

Fair enough

Pixiedusted1321 [OP] 11 points 1y ago
It was during peak I don’t honestly know or remember.

When kids give a joke name and are being loud and obnoxious in the cafe with their friends I just read out the drink with all its modifications when I call it out, nice try kids
canidieyet_ 27 points 1y ago
and then they stand there for 20mins after you’ve called it bc they “forgot” what they ordered and are forced to repeat their joke name with shame when they ask you for it 😌
Pyrexiana 1 points 1y ago
Yup! Instantly improves my mood, it’s a nice reset so I don’t lose my mind on bar when we’re drowning

It’s a song but still dumb lmao imagine going thru drive and having to say that name
Pixiedusted1321 [OP] 8 points 1y ago
Oh I definitely know it’s a song; but it was like 8-9am. Too early for that shit.

would've sounded it out like a name lol, "mobile order for uhh abcuh defoo?"
RyusuiJL 4 points 1y ago
The sad thing is, “Abcde” is a name I’m familiar with. Pronounced “Ab-sid-ee”. I can’t even with that level of stupidity.
Mx0rion 2 points 1y ago
would've been so much better than abcuh defoo smh at myself
RyusuiJL 2 points 1y ago
No, I mean the level of stupidity at the parents actually naming their kid “Abcde.”

“Abcuh Defoo” is no more ridiculous than “Abcde”.
Mx0rion 3 points 1y ago
OH NO I DIDNT THINK U WERE XALLING ME STUPID 😭 i was just laughing that i came up w the worst way to pronounce that combo of letters but no i agree lol
cyan_reynolds 1 points 1y ago
I would totally do this except that they'd probably find it hilarious
greenduffel 10 points 1y ago
They wanted you to know they came from tiktok
Pixiedusted1321 [OP] 5 points 1y ago
I live on TikTok, literally the median barista age at our location is like 23-25.
philosopher_cat_lady 2 points 1y ago
