I know this is kinda random, but does anyone else's store go absolutely nuts when the song "I Want It That Way" by the Backstreet Boys starts playing? Somehow all of us know the lyrics, so we all sing along with it and dance behind the bar. It's a great time. I really want to know if this is a unique experience, or if all baristas have a universal love for the Backstreet Boys. Thanks.

Myself (ASM) my SM, and my older partners are usually putting on a full theatre production when BSB comes on - our regulars have begun partaking in it, it’s the best ♥️

Our store has a Spotify Playlist we've all contributed to that we play and it's good times. We've received a few Google reviews and customer comments in store about the good music and good energy in the store because of it.

Not a barista anymore, but I never learned the lyrics for that song, but rather to the Weird Al version. I was once trying to sing the original and didn’t know the words so I sang the weird al lyrics

Lmao I don't even know most of the lyrics but I absolutely will lose my shit to this song. If it's busy or early enough that I can't have a headphone in then I have to take what I can get with the sbux playlists
