Someone asked me to put a single medicine ball in their caramel macchiato today (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by deadlycutekaylee
Title. We kept trying to clarify and he just kept saying “a tall hot caramel macchiato with one medicine ball in it.” Over and over.

A lady insisted that honey citrus was a syrup flavor and that a venti medicine ball gets 5 of those so she only wants 3. When I explained, her reply was well everywhere is so different. This is how they told me they make it in Georgia. 💀

She must have been referring to the pumps of honey blend it gets.

Did you ask him if he knew what he was ordering? 😂
deadlycutekaylee [OP] 69 points 8m ago
I was like “…do you want the medicine ball as well as the macchiato?” And he just kept saying “yeah, a medicine ball in the macchiato.”

Eventually we got him to understand that they were different drinks and he got the honey citrus mint tea. 😭

this one has to be the craziest one yet. beats all the 5739184792 customizations.
deadlycutekaylee [OP] 12 points 8m ago
I can customize a beverage all day, but boy howdy I can’t handle whatever flavor of confused this customer was 😭
jeonzelink 2 points 8m ago
Right! This abomination just sounds like vomit mixed with stomach acid and I would NOT serve it to a customer 😂

I would have just thrown a honey blend covered tea bag in his macchiato.

Someone asked for cream in their medicine ball. I explain it will curdle. He didn’t believe me. Showed it to him he’s like ok I want a remake. So I yelled at him to not do that next time. He was taken back. But seriously?
dallizzlee 5 points 8m ago
You *yelled* at him?
Necessary_Low939 -4 points 8m ago
Yes I did. He knew he was wrong so he didn’t yell back. I alrdy warned him once. He said I want it like that. And when he saw all the curdles he said oh I want it without. Bro that drink that’s mad effort.
