If someone had the gall to ask me for 16 cups of ice I would tell them that there’s an Aldi down the street
Responsible_Snow7109 39 points 6m ago
Lol yea with shortages still goin on and deliveries being all weird, idk if my store would give somebody 16 cups of ice because sometimes we run low or run out on cups or lids and have to borrow from nearby stores.

They knew what they were doing tho lol which is why they got 8 of the drinks with no ice and 16 ice cups. I kno some people get no ice in their drink and cup of ice on the side. But these 2 older women asked for 2 cups of ice per drink. They're bold lol. Also i feel bad for the person who was doing customer support. They probably had to run around remaking pitchers of lemonade and mango dragonfruit refresher lol

starbucks really needs to upcharge on drinks with no ice, youre basically getting a whole other drink for free. its bullshit
cactiloveyou 13 points 6m ago
Licensed stores charged for extra base (or extra cold brew) when someone did no ice on cold brew or refreshers for a bit, but they quickly reverted the change.

I seriously can’t stand our older customers they’re obnoxious and RUDE so rude. I had one tell me I was stupid because I couldn’t find the button for extra hot on the POS because I have dyslexia and she said well it’s not my fault you have “problems” maybe if you can’t read you shouldn’t work here 🙃

That person would catch my hands for free . I am so sorry they treated you like that. God I hate people

Don't tell them why you are hunting. Alternatively, tell them they recently changed the layout and you need to relearn it. They regularly change ours, the old system they changed ALL THE DANG TIME. The new one it happens less, but still happens. So feel free to use my excuse for yourself at need. The actual words are "I hate when they change the layout, just leave it alone for goodness sakes!"

That's when you grab a shift lead or manager and tell them she's insulting you based on your disability and ask her not to come back 💕

But my granddaughter found a way on tiktok to save over 60% on your expensive beverages! And her soccer team gets so darn thirsty after a game! Can I have 32 napkins with that?

These woman are CANCELLED
bigheftyhooker 18 points 6m ago
if those were made to standard, you would have at least two pitchers of mango. That’s a lot of sales. Tell these people no, this is a business not a soup kitchen.
Hot-Independence8670 16 points 6m ago
can we please make this not allowed?? or start charging for the cups of ice??? if this happened to me i think i’d freak out 😭
Jewicer 14 points 6m ago
well yes they're the usual culprits tbh
Marty_the_Smarty 11 points 6m ago
Pro tip: when customers order iced teas or refreshers with no ice or light ice, ring in extra base - this will tell the computer that you might need to order/prepare more of said base.
QuothTheRaven-Yikes 10 points 6m ago
Honestly wondering how long it will take for corporate to cancel this hack.
Comfortable-Plane944 9 points 6m ago
I would literally give them 5 bucks to go buy a bag of ice elsewhere. Fuck this and it’s wastefulness
Bun_sie 8 points 6m ago
Out store actually doesn’t allow the order of A cup of ice paired with a drink that has no ice . It’s really saved us from the time wasters
EliMinivan 8 points 6m ago
