and then when you say yes we’re still out, they go, “you’re out of all of it 😱😱😱” as if i didn’t just say we don’t have any 💀

How many people you know that misspell “you’re “ when speaking?
graham198714 points7m ago
it was an aesthetic flourish to capture the general level of intelligence of the sort of customer that repeats back the question a second time "but really you're out???" as if the partner they asked didn't just tell them the answer

“We’re 0.62% out of it. So glad you asked.”

That’s when I go increasingly verbose nice and slow. “Hi yes unfortunately we are currently out of peppermint syrup. I can offer you … *starts naming every holiday drink* No? Okay. Very well then.

sir or madam or otherwise, i mean to say we here at Starbucks store number _____ have no—as in zero, as in we completely lack—syrup of peppermint persuasion on this fine day in november ... etc

We are out of peppermint I would recommend some mouth wash in your drink instead it pairs well with our mocha

It's the "STILL!?!" that gets me.

They lost our order. We have no peppermint, white mocha, chai, or oat milk. Mocha and almond milk are running low. RIP

For some reason, there have been a few times where I’ll suggest a regular mocha or a toasted white mocha instead, then they’ll say something like “no, I wanted the peppermint one.” Like bro, I JUST said we’re out of it

I’ve noticed over the years that there is always a shortage of peppermint…so I started stocking up a few weeks before launch. We’re on our last case and we’ve been zeroed out two orders in a row. You think corporate would have this figured out by now. 😩

I almost asked the barista where the egg nog and gingerbread syrup are but I remembered I was a barista and if it’s not there then it’s not there👏

We've been out of honey maybe 2 days when this woman asks for a HCMT and I told her we didn't have the honey for it. She said "You were STILL out a few days ago" and I literally just took a few seconds so I wouldn't reply in a bitchy "okay", I just said sorry what else can I get you lol. She also got mad when I told her it was caffinated which she asked?
