Then she had the audacity to be mad when we handed it out because “it tasted gross”
Necessary_Low939 61 points 1y ago
Wtf did she expect. Fcken chocolate with dragonfruit.
luvduvbunny 32 points 1y ago
So I’m confused. What *exactly* did she expect the drink to turn out? Mango Dragonfruit Lemonade doesn’t go with the rest of the “drink”
uhhhhjosie [OP] 118 points 1y ago
I told her that she would have to pay for another drink because we made it exactly how she ordered it. Also, it was curdling when she got there because she decided to add nonfat:(

So proud of you for this
Lady_Green_Thumb 17 points 1y ago
😆 I feel like she must have made a mistake when ordering this monstrosity since all the edits would make sense if it hadn't been a lemonade and it had been some sort of milky coffee drink. That's not your guy's fault and I'm glad you stood your ground.

that's a combination i would never expect to see on a sticker until today. no ice but blended is absolutely a choice.

I DIDNT EVEN REALIZE IT SAID NO ICE DOUBLE BLENDED.
alyssughjo 11 points 1y ago
Blended with no ice…. The mobile app never ceases to stump me. I can’t imagine the foam with all those flavors. Did anyone save a little and taste test it? 😂😂😂
Responsible_Snow7109 11 points 1y ago
Milda stay right there. The police are on their way.

Do u kno if they picked it up and/or if they took a sip and liked it? Im always curious when I see these ungodly concoction on here, I'm always curious to know if they end up picking it up and liking it or if they return it at any point and try to get something else. But I don't understand why anybody would ever come to that conclusion or come up with that recipe that it would be a great idea to mix the mango dragon fruit with chocolate cream foam

Edit: and lemonade and raspberry and blend it lol

At my store we charge for no ice.. why? You’re getting extra coffee, juice or what ever for no additional charge so we started charging for that and if they don’t want the no ice and to not have the cup filled we pour until the 3rd line and leave the rest of the cup empty.. also the grande in a venti cup thing we pour into a grande cup to the third line fill and ice to the top of the cup then pour that grande cup into a venti and leave the reminding space empty. It’s people trying to get extra while paying less people are greedy so we changed that at are store and serval other stores around us has followed

When I worked at tarbucks we charged for anything that wasn't normally in the drink. Each pump of syrup.

If they got no ice/no water we had to charge for extra of the components they did get.

The app was also weird with us so if they used a 150 reward it would cover the core drink but not any additions like shots etc.

Customers were so mad at us all the time.
Interesting-Wrap9118 1 points 1y ago
Yeah we also charge for extra scoops of fruit inclusions.. those bags are like 11 bucks a BAGG and people be asking for like 5 scoops and normally it wouldn’t charge.. that is making us lose money as well so we started to charge 80 cents per scoop extra that wasn’t what the Starbucks drink came with

cause it’s coming out of your paycheck right LMFAOOO; i’m a 5 year partner and i do whatever gets the customer the hell out of my face

Actually it got me a promotion for coming up with the idea and after about two months the manager seen an increase of profit and not losing so much from all the no ice orders… do you relise how much are items cost the store?? I bet you have zero clue so in all actuality it got me from being payed 13.50 to 19.50 an hour for being a manager now
Paid-Not-Payed-Bot 3 points 1y ago
> from being *paid* 13.50 to

FTFY.

Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in:

* Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.*

* *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.*

Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment.

*Beep, boop, I'm a bot*
TraditionalAd2487 2 points 1y ago
so ass kissing got u a promotion. whoopty doo, being a cop over inventory doesn’t make it right. also how do you charge? do u manually change the price because that’s not right….

i’ve been a shift for 3 of the 5 years and guess what, my check has stayed consistent even with quarterly price increases, whereas our wages have been stagnant. so not only are you a boot licking cop but ur also an underpaid one.

please, use the right now recovery more often.
Interesting-Wrap9118 1 points 1y ago
Nope I’m being payed 19.50 an hour at age 20 while in college so it’s great for me and it isn’t bootie licking anything. It’s business I’m in school for business and want to run my own place some day so it’s something I just wanted to do to help out with out even wanting a promotion and at the end of it I got one anyways… so no
It wasn’t my intention to get a promotion lol
_squintyemonster 1 points 1y ago
How much did the CEO get paid as a bonus again? How much does Tarbucks make as a company?
I’m not fussing over charging for ice. Is it annoying yes. But we waste so much product when we have to remake drinks or “make the moment right” that it seems a bit weird to get hung up on charging for more of drink because they asked for no ice.
_squintyemonster 0 points 1y ago
Also managers who do this are sus. And probably over police their baristas.
Interesting-Wrap9118 1 points 1y ago
Their is a difference for looking at out for what’s best for a company and then bossing around everybody that is under me.. if anything I see my self as a human just like them with the only difference I just have a higher name to the company then them but it’s not even about at all actually
Interesting-Wrap9118 1 points 1y ago
Hmmmm yeahhh no 🤣🤣 i get along just fine with my workers and actually spend a lot of time outside work with a lot of them
Standard-Pin1207 5 points 1y ago
"We don't do returns on mobile orders based off taste" if only we could say this. Make it obvious it wasn't US who made the nasty drink. Just them.. u got a mud covered fruit lemonade. What did u expect. Unicorn farts?

Had a lady order a acai lemonade, Sweet Cream and Sweet Cream foam. I was extra chunky and all. Her face after the first sip said it all…
