Every cup has a paper wasp in it! We named all of them. My favorites were yunger gravy, yungest gravy, and elder gravy

release them
edit: this is supposed to sound threatening in a funny way, not like a pushy “release them” way like im telling you to let them go…… I just want chaos

Where are you getting all these wasps
GoddessDivine00 [OP] 79 points 10m ago
Our dumpster is across from the drive thru window and the wasps hang out there for food and our district wants us to keep the window open pretty much constantly for that ✨customer connection✨ so they just fly right in lol
Assiqtaq 55 points 10m ago
Ah yes, the wasp effect. We all know how it enhances the customer experience.
oooortcloud 25 points 10m ago
Maybe you could ask them to put a carpenter bee house near the dumpster so the wasps get eaten and then all you’ll have is silly fuzzy carpenter bees
houjichacha 9 points 10m ago
Oh god that sounds terrible. We have to keep our window open too, but we've only had two bees so far.
thebestdaysofmyflerm 6 points 10m ago
Do you always have the fan on summer setting? That's supposed to keep bugs out.
GoddessDivine00 [OP] 21 points 10m ago
Yeah the air curtain is basically useless
holldizzle024 3 points 10m ago
you guys are instructed to keep the window open?? i get yelled at if i leave it open…
laughingashley 3 points 10m ago
How fun for the customers out in the active battle field lol
Necessary_Low939 20 points 10m ago
Damn. I rather have flies over wasps any day.
Beneficial-Weird-817 15 points 10m ago
I would literally leave, I'm allergic and have to go to the ER/Urgent care if I get stung. It's not worth it 😂
Red-Human 12 points 10m ago
Get one of those wasp traps that look like orange plastic bee hives. They work like MAGIC.
Deadrax502 10 points 10m ago
Thankfully my store is getting treated right now. So it’s funny I saw this post.

WE HAVE A FLY INFESTATION AT MY STORE :)))))
huffelerpuffler 2 points 10m ago
We also have bad yellow jackets, got up to 9 sitting on the counter yesterday (all Harry Potter related names) before our manager made us throw them out lolll. Customers are starting to complain now because everyday there’s more flying around outside and in the lobby 😅 a customer got stung on our patio

Dude, the next tiktok drink is going to have wasps blended into a frap or something now.
Heliotrope88 1 points 10m ago
These guys get really irritable towards the end of the summer (for various reasons that I can’t remember, but it’s all online). I just got stung by one two weeks ago by asking it to leave with a gentle motion through the air. I didn’t expect it. One sting hurt and itched for days.
