I laughed at a customer right in front of her, I couldn't help it (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by broe071
"Hi, can I get a pumpkin spiced latte?"
"Sure what size?"
"Grande please."
"Hot or iced?"
"Whats the difference?"

I lost it. What kind of question is that? I laughed and I felt so bad oh my god. But seriously, do you want your drink hot or cold girl? It's not that hard

The… temperature? 💀 I probably wouldn’t have laughed but it definitely would’ve flatlined my brain.

Reminds me of this guy when I worked at Steak ‘n Shake:

Guy: what’s the difference between fries and chili cheese fries?

Me:... huh?

Guy: Do the chili cheese fries have chili on them?

Me:... yeah. And cheese.

Lmao his friends were giving him shit for it

Maybe she meant to ask if the price is different? Idk, this needs to have another explanation😭

Had a similar experience today on DTO! Customer came thru asking “I usually order a venti iced caramel macchiato. How do I order that hot but not too hot?”
Me: “just say you’d like a venti caramel macchiato kids temp”
Customer: “okay, can I get an iced venti kid’s caramel macchiato hot”
Me: … 🫠

Sometimes I think our customers brains freeze up and they just start saying things 😭 "can I get a tall venti iced caramel macchiato frappucino?"

We had something kind of similar at our store once.

Customer: what’s the difference between the strawberry açaí base and the mango dragonfruit base?

Barista: one is strawberry açaí flavored and the other is mango dragonfruit flavored.

C: I get that. But what’s the difference?

B: I’m not sure what you’re asking.

when I ask and hot or ice I either get “warm (they mean hot not actual warm temp/ heated “
