kisssmyroast [OP] 129 points 1y ago
Literally all morning 🤢 I feel bad for the mids & closers bc it’s only going to get worse

I have had this happen and tried to maintain customer service voice and literally had someone say, "That's not something to be proud of."

Dude... I'm not... I'm trying not to pull my hair out and strangle you. Don't BE AN ASS!

I can’t stand people like this. I had a customer the other day say “That’s really ugly of you” when I told her that we only had chocolate cake pops left. Like, I’m sorry but I didn’t eat the rest of them 🤨
JadedPerfection 10 points 1y ago
Seriously. The only time I have ever purposely damaged anything is when I was taking the Unicorn Frappuccino ingredients to the counter and tripped and the entire delivery fell into the trash. It was terrible and I was given a 10 minute time out because obviously I was not ready to deal with the bar yet. Everyone was *so sad.*
JadedPerfection 7 points 1y ago
People. The more I have to deal with them the more I am certain that there shouldn't be more.

I once reached my limit over a customer’s attitude and in my best customer service voice just said, “Yeah I’m so sorry, but I couldn’t resist and ate them all” once. Felt so good 😂

anonbaristaandstuff 65 points 1y ago

“Can I get a glass of water?”
“We’re out of cups.”

I work in a kiosk and we are getting mobile orders in two months. We are all dreading it. You never know, it might not be a thing anyone cares about. Or we could be overwhelmed and have no real support.

And whipped cream
obmar-belac 14 points 1y ago
You forgot to add ‘employee fucks’ to that board. Definitely out of those.

Sad to see how the same outages are spreading to other districts 😭 we just got our truck if everything today after being out for a good 3 weeks
albinopigsfromspace 9 points 1y ago
Im glad we arent the only store out of like everything
deliriux 8 points 1y ago
And only 5 people will bother to read the sign before entering for the entire day
Responsible_Snow7109 4 points 1y ago
Lol i thought it was on a door too at first. But that looks like its on a drive thru menu outside of the store but even still, people wont read it even tho its like in their face
theepi_pillodu 7 points 1y ago
Good, I can still get my mango dragon fruit lemonade with extra dragon fruit pieces, light ice, more mango juice.
BookDragon1996 5 points 1y ago
God speed soldier
Alternative-Rent5653 5 points 1y ago
the same thing has been happening at my store and we have to put signs up too, and still costumers don’t read it
cookiemonstah87 3 points 1y ago
Customers don't even read the "cafe closed, drive-thru only" signs. They'll bang on the door until someone comes and tells them.
Alternative-Rent5653 1 points 1y ago
I don’t have a drive thru at my main store but I’ve covered at other stores that have drive thrus, it’s such a different ballgame then what you would expect, it’s just like “the common sense, where” Cause clearly they can’t read
AthenaSparks 3 points 1y ago
