I feel like a lot of baristas think customers do this because they're dumb, but in all actuality, it's usually done so they can get more points.

Still dumb

Yeah like with the app rewards that are like “order x drink twice this week and get 100 stars”, some customers probably want the stars but don’t really want the drink so they do this kinda thing to get something they actually want and the stars at the same time. I didn’t think about that until you mentioned it!

How is that dumb though? Putting your obvious biases aside and looking at things objectively, if a customer can get a bang for their buck or points or rewards for ordering something differently, but still ordering it in a way that gets them what they want, does that really make them dumb? If anything it’s smart.

just say you’re a karen and go. you’re not “cheating the system” you just look dumb. this customer would’ve saved money if they just ordered a iced caramel macchiato w/ oatmilk, blonde espresso, and whip then by modifying the iced apple crisp macchiato to turn it into a caramel macchiato.
