Imagine you’re neck deep in drinks on a sunday, there’s only two of you, and you run frantically to the back to get more venti cups because you’re completely out, and you find one last box, but alas, inside is a christmas tree from your old manager (reddit.com)

>Christmas tree (toss)

Right on the side. Unless you are the one that wrote that there.

yeah we wrote that after the fact

So no venti white mocha with vsccf and caramel drizzle? 🥺 haha just kidding
borrowedurmumsvcard [OP] 21 points 10m ago
we’re gonna have to put that in a trenta cup for you 😀😀
snarky_fireball21 24 points 10m ago
Excuse me. This is bigger than I wanted. Can I get the venti sized cup please?

Or! If you're in Washington state like me, where we can't put iced lids on drinks unless they ask: excuse me! This venti lid isn't fitting. Can you help me please?

God speed.
DylaFer 10 points 10m ago
Wait, what? They don’t let you put the lids on?! In NJ and PA we literally cannot hand off the drink if the lid isn’t on it. I’ve been bitched out by customers who didn’t want a lid but we couldn’t give it to them without lol
snarky_fireball21 9 points 10m ago
Yeah. State law says we can't put iced lids on unless requested. Its supposedly to help reduce plastic waste. Surprise! It's not!

what on earth??
snarky_fireball21 3 points 10m ago
Listen. Washington state is a wild place.

I am so glad I quit in seattle before they came up with this stupid idea. How many people actually say no? Especially at DTO… how they love to torture us.
snarky_fireball21 3 points 10m ago
That's what i thought! Who's going to say no regardless! I work in a Tarbucks and no one says no to a lid! No one! We end up cleaning more from the guests knocking the lids on the ground than we did before!

As a fellow barista I would hate life if I ran out of a popular size cup. We’re almost out of grande ice cups at mine right now
Wild-Pie7228 2 points 10m ago

Dafuq your venti cold cups are 26oz?? That certainly explains the look of confusion when I hand American tourists their venti iced drinks
canidieyet_ 10 points 10m ago
how many oz are they where you live?
Trumps_left_bawsack 2 points 10m ago
Uh 20oz, y'know like the name suggests
[deleted] 5 points 10m ago
To be fair the hot cups *are* 20oz, I just thought the 26oz were there to make up for the ice lmfao.
-_-slimshady 1 points 10m ago
in the uk, the venti cold are only 20
canidieyet_ 2 points 10m ago
i wish ours were only 20.
Kaluskydrak 1 points 10m ago
It’s marketed as 26 but it’s only 24
If you don’t believe me, fill a tall cup with water to the top and pour it into a venti cup, it overflows from 2 tall sizes 🤷🏼‍♂️
