Most espresso is 80% milk or more. One shot of espresso is only an ounce. What, you dilute your espresso shots with fucking water for your baby palate? Instead of cream which doesnt kill the shot?

>>8762456
What I'm saying is that people will get drip coffee or espresso drinks, fill them almost entirely with milk, and then get like 10-15 pumps of syrup, completely destroying the coffee flavor, then brag about how much they "love coffee".

>>8762472
The fact you are comparing espresso and drip as if theyre in the same category and can be treated the same in terms of cream still shows how little you know about actual coffee or what espresso drinks contain.

Drip coffee is a joke anyways

>Because for whatever reason my store feels the need to bus in seniors and retards to give them shopping days

Holy shit mine did the same thing. The seniors were either super nice or complete fucking assholes, there was no in between. I overheard my boss at the time talk to one of the seniors and told her:

"My employees are just doing their job, they have no control over the prices of your items. Please stop being so rude to them."

The other fucker's excuse for being rude was literally thing:

"Well I'm old"

Then her friend apologized on her behalf and they left. My boss was a real ass nigga for that though. She hated the "the customer is always right" bull shit and got in a lot of trouble constantly for it, but she always stuck up for us. What a wonderful human being.

A person who enjoys milk chocolate can reasonably say they like chocolate. Why doesn't the same extend to beverages with similar proportions of milk and sugar?

>>8763417
I disagree if I heard someone say they like chocolate and I saw them eat milk chocolate I'd assume they mostly like to eat sugar same with coffee there's nothing wrong with that

>>8762752
This is true of people, customers are just people. There is no filter at the door to keep out the mentally below average. Half the people you encounter are below average intelligence ergo probably wrong about most things.

This was my experience as well. Old people are either super cool or fucking assholes. I would also make it a point to thank people whose children were fucking behaved in the store. Not in earshot of the people with screeching tumor-goblins, of course.

It's somewhat understandible since, if you work at starbucks, being a Barista is your job.

Being a Barista is not my job. Being a fucking COOK is not my job. I am the goddamn motherfucking night auditor but for some fucking reason they have me working in every other fucking department half the time to cover for people and I am flipflopping between 6 am to 2 pm and 11 pm to 7 am shifts and it is driving me fucking insane I have been up for almost 24 hours now they fucking called me an hour ago to see if I could come in and cover for a cook that called out sick even though I have to work night audit tonight at midnight goddamnit I hate hotels so much

I have this same problem except with romania trailer trash cunts. Nothing fucking works with them, no English, no German, no French, nothing.

I just want to throw shot glasses at people who order espresso shots then proceed to let the shot die while they sip on it over the course of 10 minutes. Also got bitched at by the owner for telling a customer to google cappuccino when they said their cappuccino was almost all foam. Apparently I should have just remade a latte for them. Also had an interesting customer get pissed off because I gave them the wrong drink when they ordered a macchiato yesterday. Apparently a macchiato is a full glass of steamed milk with caramel on top but what the fuck do I know?

I fucking love European customers, I legitimately get excited when I hear an accent because I know they know what the fuck they're ordering.

Also, just got an aeropress for my home coffee and tea a week or two ago. Highly regret not getting one sooner. Haven't done a pour over for myself since.

My steak was overcooked says the stupid patron while sending back all but the near bone parts of the steak.

>>8762482
I thought the stereotypes about jews were just bullshit before I came to NYC. Some of them will throw an absolute fit when the scanned price is a nickel more the listed price

>>8763676

Asians and Indians. This is true. They always bring flyers from Chinese/Indian stores and I wonder why they don't just fucking shop there. I'll tell you why, the quality of the produce and neat doesn't hold a candle to North American stores, this is from personal experience

I've had like two Jewish people ever at my cash. The one time it came out too high, he just brought it to my attention and it turned out the thing he was trying to buy didn't have the price adjusted in the system so I just manually input it and continued without incident. But NYC Jews? Damn man I feel for you.

Fucking this. I once worked in the paint department at a hardware store. I had a woman come in and ask me:

"If I paint my baseboards this color (holds up a color sample), will it make the band on my wristwatch look too wide?"

>>8765387
Dunno. I mean, we get alot of people who ask for sizes so big that we don't carry them, but the usual reaction is usually something along the lines of "oh well, thanks anyways". I have no problems with these customers.

Jimmy John's does not toast subs. No Jimmy John's toasts its subs. There are no toasters in Jimmy John's. You literally cannot ever get your sub toasted at any Jimmy John's anywhere ever. This is a core incompetency of our shitty fast food chain, it is what makes JJ's what it is.
This does not stop people from demanding that you toast their sub for them (presumably by sticking it down the front of my pants and using my crotch heat to toast the sub because, as I have mentioned, we do not have a toaster).
And then when you say, "I can't do that," they get offended and say, "But the Jimmy John's near my house toasts subs."
No, ma'am, they abso-fucking-lutely do not.


Also, people who walk in past the big sign out by the parking lot that says Jimmy John's, walk toward the big sign that says Jimmy John's, walk through the door that says Jimmy John's, and approach the fucking counter with the fucking menu board that says fucking JJ's and ask the person in the fucking Jimmy John's uniform, "Is this Jimmy John's?"
No, sir, this is a Sonic, we're using camouflage.


And finally, the shits who try to pay with a $100 bill for a $10 meal and get irritated when I don't have change in my drawer.

>>8765405
Oh man, every day, the thousands of dumb questions. Half the time the answer is right there on the box.

Speaking of boxes, the fucking customers who think it's just okay to open up the boxes, then act surprised when you tell them they can't do that. Then they buy an unopened box. Sometimes there's even a display model, or a box that was already opened by another fucktard customer, and they still feel the need to open another one.

If anyone here works at Subway, I gotta ask, is there a policy stating that when a customer uses a buy-one-get-one-free coupon to upgrade a six-inch into a footlong, that you have to make them as separate six-inches, even when they're exactly the same?

Walmart guy again, got a story from a customer POV.

> At Subway. Before ordering, I hand him my two-for-one coupon and explain that I want to use it to upgrade a six-inch into a footlong.
> Tells me that he can't do that
> Im polite as can be. After all, perhaps I read the coupon wrong? "Oh, I'm sorry, did I misread the coupon? Is it expired?"
> "This coupon allows you to get 2 6inches for the price of one"
> "Right. They're both for me. They will both be exactly the same. So you may as well just make one footlong."
> "This coupon does not get you a foot long. It's a two for one."
> Utterly bewildered, I just go along with it, ordering two identical 6inches and politely informing him from the start that they will be identical.
> as if to spite me, instead of using a full sized bun, he uses the half-bun from a previous customer's 6inch order and then cuts a second bun of the same bread type in half for my other 6inch
> After finishing my first 6inch, he asks me what I want on the second. Again, I politely inform him that the second sandwich is identical. He makes my second sandwich separately instead of saving himself some effort by making one footlong
> He actually asks me what sauces I want on my second one. To be fair though, he may have simply forgot what I asked for on the first.

Next week I go back, there's someone else working there, but the same scenario plays out again.

>>8765617
You were in the wrong, your coupon was for 2 six inches, not a 12 inch

>>8765621
6 × 2 = 12

>>8765617
He was technically correct, I guess.
Although a footlong is cheaper than two six inchers because there is more labor (and therefore labor cost and longer turnover time) involved in making two six-inchers, and that half a roll may end up as wastage, and generally it would have made more sense to just do the upgrade, but whatever.

Could also be the manager was watching. Some managers are complete dicks about stuff that makes no sense. Part of why, back when I worked retail, I prefered night shifts. So long as everything adds up by the time the manager shows up, it doesn't matter what exactly you may or may not have done.

>>8765645
And that's what you got. 6x2.

They are different items, you didn't have a coupon for half off a 12in. Say I had a coupon for BOGO refried beans. I pick out the container with twice as many beans as the one indicated on the coupon and attempt to debate with the cashier about how she should just charge me for one of the small cans since "it's the same amount of food anyway". Do you think this is acceptable?

I drink exclusively vanilla iced coffees

>>8765656
That's different. Those items would have two different UPCs. There's no barcode on a sandwich. The sandwiches are not prepacked in different containers.

... Am I being trolled here?

I work an auto parts retail usually delivery driver but I fill in on the counter occasionally. It's more or less the same types of shit and stupid questions like grocery stores. But probably the absolute worst is the Homegrown mechanics who have absolutely no fucking clue what they are even doing.

"I want this part."
I explained the park does not fit the application but they insist I sell it to them anyways.
They come back within the next couple days and return the part buying the original recommended one.

>>8765670
>there is no barcode on a sandwich
How the hell do you think they keep track of inventory? When you buy it, it goes into the system as the item it is, not the combination of 2 items.
You think McDonalds will give you a large fry if you have a coupon for BOGO small fries?

>>8765692
Do you think it physically has to be two six inch sandwiches for them to ring it up as such?
The fry analogy doesn't work because the packaging at subway is literally identical for a 6" or a 12".

Fucking autism I swear to god

>>8765731
You are the one with autism. What difference does it make if you get one sandwich or two? You had the coupon for 2 sandwiches and went on a sperg spree because you wanted 1.

You get the item on your coupon, it's not valid in any other form. You don't get a 12in for the price of a 6in, that's not what the fucking thing said.

>>8765307
Top kek

>>8765692
No, but again, this is different. Is an order of large fries exactly twice as much as 2 orders of small fries? I don't know. Also, they use different containers. Maybe it's important that the number of containers used matches the orders sent out? Probably not, but maybe it does, I don't know. A footlong and two six inches use the exact same amounts of the exact same ingredients and packaging. I would have been fine with him wrapping the two halves separately like two 6inches, in fact that's what I'd expect. And no, subway sandwiches do not have barcodes. There's some sort of code that they put it, but they don't scan anything. There's nothing to stop him from making both subs at once and putting it into the system as two 6inches with a BOGO coupon. The end result is exactly the same, except doing them both at the same time saves me time and saves him both time and effort.

This is completely different from both examples you gave.

>>8765736
Sperg spree? I carefully worded my post to make it clear that I was polite the entire time. Just bewildered.

>>8765692
There is no reason it couldn't be rung up as two seperate items despite being prepared as one.

>>8765765
You felt the need to post the story on 4chan and REEEEE that you got 2 sandwiches instead of 1.

>>8765768
Similarly, there is no reason to prepare it as one item when the offer is clearly for two smaller items.

>>8765755
>The end result is exactly the same
but it isn't, you said
>he uses the half-bun from a previous customer's 6inch order and then cuts a second bun of the same bread type in half for my other 6inch
If he had made you a footlong there would have been a less fresh 6in loaf sitting on the shelf for longer, and if I had to guess I'd bet that's against policy.

>>8762403
I, too, worked in a shitty Starbucks-like cafe. Some people I worked with don't even drink coffee containing beverages. You can guess, what quality their drinks are...
Tbh, they can't do anything wrong. The beans used are shit, the machine and grinder aren't adjusted at all and the bosses don't know anything about coffee at all.
Our customers order stuff like an decaf. Soy Milk Roché Macchiato (latte macchiato with Nutella and Hazelnutsirup inside, cream, chocolate syrup and hazelnut on top).
I'm glad I have an machine with E61 brew group, a good grinder and good beans at home and don't have to deal with that anymore.

>>8765784
Actually, I'll concede that your point about the half-bun being left out for longer actually makes sense. This is probably exactly why they were made separately, now that I think of it. The rest of your points are still shit though.

Congrats, you're only 66% retarded.

Motherfucking sandniggers.

I work at a 5 guys and I die inside every time I see a muslim guy with his family walk in the store.

>walk in 10 minutes before close
>we cook the bacon on the grill so we have to clean it every time one of these fuckers comes in since they can't eat pork
>always order "beef burger" because saying hamburger like a normal person would send them to hell
>only buy food for him and his wife NEVER for his children, who survive on the free peanuts in the store.
>never tips

Every time it's close to closing and we see one of these guys come up to the store now we just throw a ton of bacon on the grill and they turn around and go home, fucking hilarious.

Also, I had this mom come in with her poor kid and on this day I nearly quit my fucking job. This nigress comes in with her kid and her kid is so pale he looks like a white person, and looks totally sick. This mother walks up and orders a hamburger and nothing for her kid. The kid immediately vomits all over the floor. I just hand her some paper towels to clean it up, it's her fucking kid and I'll go out and bleach it later. Mind you, there are other customers in the store that now have to smell and look at vomit. She cleans it up and is waiting on her food and this kid is all over this box of peanuts, leaning on it and coughing into it and he vomits again right into a whole box of peanuts. Again, in front of customers.

Another guy put in his order and then asked if the peanuts were free, and I told him yes since he was a paying customer. The guy eats and then the next thing I know this guy is walking out the store with a whole fucking box of peanuts and I had to chase him down before he got to his car.

Working in the food service industry has made me lose all hope in the future of humanity, but of course you'd have to be crazy to spend 12 bucks on a fucking hamburger.

>>8765731
>packaging is the same

Two sandwiches equals more packaging and more cost.

>>8765784
There is a reason: it is cheaper and faster to make one sandwich than two.
Especially because of labor. One of the key metrics that fast food restaurants use is the average amount of time between the customer bellying up to the counter and lurching away with their order. This metric is tracked in fractions of a second, meaning that every second you can save on each order is better performance, in many cases represented by bigger bonuses (for management).

>there would have been a less fresh 6in loaf sitting on the shelf for longer

This is the only possible justification, but it would only apply IF the half roll was nearing the end of its shelf life AND shelf life for halfrolls is different than shelf life for wholerolls AND the employee was thinking about which metric (customer wait time vs wastage) was more important that month.

>>8765850
>always order "beef burger" because saying hamburger like a normal person would send them to hell

At the end of the day it's up to the franchise and by extension it's employees to decide how they want to package their food and structure their coupon deals. This is such a non-issue it's baffling.

>>8765875
A friend of mine there corrected them once and said "You mean a hamburger?" and the guy said "NO, NO HAM"

>>8765898
>this is such a non-issue

Then why the fuck are you arguing it.

>>8765914
Why post a complaint about it in the first place

>>8765862
>Two sandwiches equals more packaging and more cost.
I meant the packaging for a 6" vs a 12", it's not like McDonald's where the small fries and large fries have different packaging and so then you'd have inventory issues and such.

So the worker was basically autistic, he could have just made a single sandwich and it would be literally the same as making the two separately. He just made more work for himself due to (possibly corporate) autism.

>>8765736
I'm not the original guy you were arguing with, just felt like chiming in and pointing put that your analogy is incorrect.

>>8765784
>Similarly, there is no reason to prepare it as one item when the offer is clearly for two smaller items.
Are you literally retarded?

>>8765935
Are you literally retarded?

You didn't even make a point.

are you retards still going on about the fucking sandwiches like anyone gives a fuck?

>>8765940
My point is the point you made is fucking retarded.
No point to making it as one item? It's quicker and easier, and less wasteful. There is absolutely no reason to make it as two separate items, even though the coupon is for two separate items, because the two add up exactly to the one and can be rung up as separate items regardless.

Autist genocide can't come soon enough.

>>8765949
>There is absolutely no reason to make it as two separate items
try reading
>he uses the half-bun from a previous customer's 6inch order and then cuts a second bun of the same bread type in half for my other 6inch
If he had made you a footlong there would have been a less fresh 6in loaf sitting on the shelf for longer, and if I had to guess I'd bet that's against policy.

>>8765955
>blah blah blah
but if he had ordered a footlong that half bun would still be there so who gives a fuck. Not like anyone would know, the bread, again, does not have fucking barcodes on it.
Though when the autistic worker insisted on making 2 six inch sandwiches he obviously could have chosen a different bread that was not previously cut.

>>8765965
>it doesn't make sense if I just ignore it :)
okay buddy, call me when it's your Subway and you make decisions

>>8765925
6 inch requires two sandwich sheets, 12 inch requires one sandwich sheet.

Original sandwich story poster here. The strangest thing about it was that the guy just didn't acknowledge it at all. If I was the one making the sandwiches and I had to make them separately because of company policy, I would have levelled with the customer and told him that I have to do it this way because of company policy. And my response would have been "Oh, okay, I understand completely. I don't want to get you in trouble. Do what you gotta do."

I worked at Dunkin Donuts. A regular amount of anything (syrup, sugar, or cream) is 2 in a small, 3 in a medium, 4 in a large, 5 in an XL. A swirl has enough sweetness in it, that you really don't need cream or sugar if you get it. A customer came through drive thru once and ordered a medium hot coffee, 6 extra cream, 6 extra sugar, and 8 extra swirl. When we gave it to her, she complained it wasn't sweet enough. Repeat this twice, she had over 20 shots of swirl in there, and probably about that much cream and sugar. We later received a complaint that we were gypping our customers of swirl. That was about a year ago. She's probably dead now.

>>8762482
>Turns out customer cannot speak a fucking word of English
I never fucking understood this. I worked in a really shitty part of town so I got plenty of ebonics and similar, but a handful of regulars spoke not a word of English. Always came in by themselves, always wanted something different, and was always annoyed at us for not understanding them. So fucking obnoxious.

>>8764304
>Not stirring macchiatos
Dunkin Donuts? I feel like most other places, if your customer is ordering a macchiato, they know what to expect. When I worked at Dunkin, we had a big fucking sign, showing an unstirred macchiato, but about every third time you gave the customer one, they'd either hand it back to you and tell you to stir it, or give you a death stare and tell do it themselves. One time in drive thru as she was stirring it it fell all over her lap and pretty much the entire front of her car. I had to go to the back to not laugh right in her face.

I got to call the police on this one hambeast because there were no free scooters and she didn't want to just sit on the bench and wait for one like all the patient elderly people, so she ended up following this pregnant woman using one, yelling at her for riding it to her car, and literally fucking grabbed her and shoved her off of it and threw her bags out of the basket. The cops rolled up as she was struggling to push the armrests up so she could fit on it. The mom had a broken wrist but other than that she and the proto-kid were fine.

Sometimes we wind up getting extra coffees and pastries we don't ask for in our orders though, which is nice

I feel like cashiers should be given the right from their employers to tell people who bring 25+ items into a 20 items or less line to fuck off. Like okay you can let them pass if they go 1-2 over the limit and didn't know it, but theres a reason we have the 20 item line.

It's a Starbucks "branded solution" so even worse than an actual fucking Starbucks since we have about a quarter of the menu and my work place kisses customer ass like no other, so people know that they can walk all over us.

>"b-but Starbucks ALWAYS knows how much I like!"

I told her, "only you know best how much you like, ma'am, that's why we have it out there for you to do yourself" and she just stood there hyperventilating as I walked away from the window.

Also most of our customers are insufferable and know nothing about coffee. I have people complain about cappuccinos frequently, because they either wanted a frappuccino or a latte. People also order caramel macchiatos expecting them to be really sugary like a caramel frap but then complain and ask for extra syrup.

Seems like at least once a week someone loads up a shopping cart with meat and then abondons it. Makes me absolutely furious. They either don't know that we have to throw it all out, or don't care.

While this isn't nearly as bad, I was behind the customer service desk once and saw 3 jumbo boxes of Rice Krispies. The claims slip said "didn't like it" as the reason for return. What kind of rock do you have to live under to not know wtf you're getting when you buy Rice Krispies?

Old people. They're not as intrusive when it's during the weekday. tuesday-wednesday-thursday they do the least amount of clogging, because most people are at work (and then most people think they're smart by "being sick" on monday/friday for a three day weekend)

But they're just so god damn oblivious to things. They never have their payment method ready, credit cards have been out for over FOUR decades and they can't figure it out, or can't read the machine (shouldn't be driving to the store then, fuck face) and I have to hold up the line to help them.
They stand in the middle of the aisle just perfectly that you can't get around either side of them with your cart of shit to put back in its place.
just, god damn it should be illegal for these people to leisurely browse and try to small talk anybody near them. That's why they go out on weekends, because actual working people do grocery shopping on their days off. They have a better chance to tell an unfunny joke for the thirtieth time, to hopefully get to use the "ah it didn't scan, guess it's FREE THEN!"

McDonald's is worse because you have every breed of person walking in. I remember wageslaving in highschool at a mcdicks too because it paid better than some jobs. We had the fattest people walk in an order a ton of shit, then the skinniest people walk in and order a burger without the meat. The fat people would always get Diet Coke. Single moms were the worst, they felt they were entitled to the whole McDonald's. One time an entire schoolbus of retarded kids got off and it took an hour to order for all of them. Then since we were near a military base we had marines, and because I later joined up I know how retarded marines could be when they were bored. A vegetarian once came in and lectured me about meat and proceeded to order the vegetarian items. I think the one that pissed me off the most was when a landwhale's gut broke the table and he complained to us that the table "wasn't her size."

Service dogs don't require any badge or anything. Generally speaking though, if it is a small breed dog it is probably fake, but not always. Also, be very careful how you enforce these policies. The only questions you're allowed to ask are if the dog is a service animal, and what tasks it is trained to perform, and this is only if it is not obvious what the dog does. If the dog is causing a disruption or acts aggressive at all you can have the animal removed at that point as well.

I have a genuine disdain for people who fake service animals, and this case you were probably right, but again, be careful because it is a major lawsuit if you are wrong.

Imagine if the same applied to any other food, like I like spinach but I'm not going to just eat it plain, I'm going to use salt, garlic, and olive oil but REEE YOU DON'T REALLY LIKE SPINACH THEN REEEEEE

I don't understand people that put caramel cum hazelnut frappamochiatto bullshit in coffee to the point you don't taste coffee at all, like claiming you like spinach but then putting it in a smoothie with so much sugar it's impossible to taste spinach.

As long as you can still taste the coffee I think you can say that you like coffee, but don't sperg out at me for putting cream and cinnamon in mine.

It´s a franchise business, anywhere else and skipping the rules is acceptable, however in this case, the guy is paid to put shit in-between bread, he has no power, or control at all, i think a good percentage of customers would be able to figure it out for themselves that the coupon is only available for two individual subs, unless stated otherwise on the coupon. You should find a small time place where the owners have full control over the rules so they can bend them for you. Otherwise you´l have to deal with the stupid rules closely followed by the employee´s, they don´t make the rules, or even know why they exist most the time, they are just paid to follow them.

This would happen every fucking week. Every goddamn week. The shift manager would always tell them to call ahead next time and we could have enough ready for them all, but wouldn't you know it they didn't speak a word of fucking English.

Still, even if they can't speak English, do they not have basic fucking pattern recognition? Are they so goddamn dumb they can't figure out if they all come in and order gallons of the same goddamn soup that we're gonna run the fuck out?

I'm not racist, but stupid fuckers like those sure as shit make me feel like I am.

American coffee drinkers are the worst.

>>8775409
A WaWa isn't really a restaurant. It's a convenience store/fast food place.

The problem isn't a misunderstanding in how we prepare food. It's a total lack of fucking pattern recognition. Every damn week they would do this shit and every damn week we wouldn't have enough for them.

Even if we were making fresh batches, the fuck would that change? They'd still clear us out. Shit, it'd probably take us longer to make batches anyway.

>>8775462
>they clear us out
>we don't have to refund their money because they got what they want

i don't see the problem

>>8762403
I'd just be happy if I could drink any coffee at all without feeling like I was being stabbed in the esophagus. last coffee I was able to do that with was at a perkins, and like all restaurant coffee, it wasn't strong enough to defend itself.

>>8775484
Sorry if I'm not being clear. At WaWa customers put orders through digital screens, then the folks in the deli see the order come up on their own screen and do whatever the order is and put it up.

Sometimes when we're busy and we run out of shit, there might still be orders up for that specific thing. So if we have 2 gallons of soup ready to go and eight people order a gallon, by the time we hit the second order we're out of soup but there's still six orders for soup we don't have, so we need to call out whatever that order's number was and tell them that A) We ran out of what they ordered and B) We can either get them something else or refund it.

You can understand why that's difficult when none of these fuckers speak english.

>>8775503
Why didn't you just make 8 gallons of soup if you know they're going to show up without fail?

>>8775376
Strange, beaners liking american chicken soup. That shits bland as all fuck. Do they dump a shitload of hot sauce in it?

>>8775524
I didn't run the shifts. Nobody wants to be the shift manager who heated up eight bags of soup, sold two before they expired, and then had to spoil out the other six because they didn't show up *THAT* night, and then have to explain to your boss and your boss' boss why you wasted six bags of soup.

It's a company-owned store so everybody needs to do shit by the book all the time.

>>8775527
WaWa's CN soup is actually pretty alright. It's cheap as fuck and you don't need to speak english to order it (touch screens) so that's probably the real reason why they were getting it.

>>8775549
>and then have to explain to your boss and your boss' boss why you wasted six bags of soup.

Landscapers are typically from shitty centralamerican countries and a lot of them have autism or similar that was never diagnosed, because those countries don't have doctors.

Anyway, I can relate. Every morning at 4am I'd get a similar group of 20-40 hopping off a bus, and they'd then proceed to stand in front of the store waiting for work (we're next to a home depot). The first thing they would do is invade the store and buy as much water, soup mix and propane as possible. As a result the lone cashier on duty would be swamped and having to hustle at the dead end of his shift, especially if the morning shift came in late. The ballsier ones would just walk out of the store, depending if the manager is standing there to check receipts.

This wouldn't be so much of a problem, but occasionally there's an entire family (or god forbid, multiples) which results in kids running around opening up candy and eating it straight in the aisles, teens drawing on shit with markers and older people stealing alcohol. My shift was losing $200-500 in product every time this happened, so our manager now paces the store and drags them out when it happens. Only once did they try to actually fight back, which resulted in the police showing up (sirens and everything), which caused a everyone to loose their shit and run off.

Then at 6 am all the old ladies come in, and they wonder why the store looks like shit.

Also, more specifically relating to instances of mental illness:

>Babies are often jerked around by their older cousins, I've even seen one get spit on. These people don't know that shaking them is really bad.
>Children will often play-fight with the knives and hammers in the housewares section, except their older siblings showed them how to use their weight so they're hitting each other pretty hard.
>Teens will just stand in line and say the same thing over and over again. Originally I thought this was some sort of prayer, but nope they're just being weird.
>Older teens/young adults (ie people approximately my age) like to pound on the windows just to draw us out of the store. I think they just like seeing our reaction. I don't really get it and nobody knows how to address it since the security guy goes home at 5.
>Adults will often just stand around and look bewildered, at first I thought this was just cultural shock but then I realized most of them are probably illiterate. Most have hard times with numbers too, they only pay for things with twenties and can't comprehend things like aisle numbers or coupon deals.

I would like to get a coffee making device and some coffees so I can make my own when I'm not at work. Does anyone have recommendations? Should I get a drip machine, french press, moka pot, aeropress? Should I just get a coffee grinder, buy some beans at the store, and go to town brewing my own coffees?

Please help /ck/.

Not a lot of things get me angry when it comes to customer service work - just depressed for being stuck in a dead-end job.

I'm fine with making overtly sugary frappaccino drinks because I make them so much that's muscle memory and I feel like a gd machine.

It's dumb shit like giving the customer exactly what they want, but they're unsatisfied, mostly because they don't realize what they're ordering, in spite of breaking down the recipe for them before purchase. We give our warnings about the bitterness of voltage chillers (espresso & milk frappes), but people still come back upset.

The thing nobody grasps about our menu is that the flavor is the sugar. Theres a simple syrup called Classic, so if you want an iced coffee sweetened its with that. If you get a Hazelnut latte it gets Hazelnut syrup, which comes premade and is probably just Classic+Hazelnut flavor.

People always order "Caramel Iced coffee with cream and sugar" and I just say ok and only do caramel because I know thats what they probably want. A green bean is gonna ask them if they want both the sugar syrup and sugar packets and the customer responds "I dont know, nobody asks me that. They just make it."

People also think cream, or half and half is french vanilla flavored, American coffee culture sucks.

No, they can't. As stated above, there is no registry for service animals, but they
are completely different. Emotional support animals are allowed on flights though, which is bullshit, because they don't require any training. All you have to have is a letter from a medical professional stating that your animal could help you. Service dogs require the handler to have an actual disability and the animal must perform tasks to mitigate the disability.

so, much like christianity after it? you're a fucking moron. or if not an absolute idiot, you're an edgy underage that needs to get the fuck out.

itt: pet peeves and people that don't understand that pet peeves aren't rational. just go to a different thread if you don't understand what's happening. or maybe read the fucking op. jesus.

>>8775991
I guess that's probably the way to go

I've been wanting to get an aeropress since starting at this third wave shop. It seems pretty easy to manage and doesn't over extract the coffee like the moka pot would.

They were horrendously ugly.

Unless the price of 2 six inch subs was different than 1 twelve inch then it's exactly the same.

I've never heard anyone saying that they love coffee.

Frapps are fucking great. It's like coffee ice cream but less rich and more thirst quenching.

>>8763607
There's a special place in hell for anyone who comes into a store 3 minutes before closing and for those who are out of area and believe they're entitled to a delivery.

>>8777553
You're fucking disgusting. Frappuccinos are pure sugar, milk, and ice. There's nothing thirst quenching about that.

Drink some water, faggot.

>>8777617
If I ever call for delivery super drunk and am out of area, I hope whoever takes the call will just charge me double and deliver it.

Oh ho ho, I know.

And I had no buffer in between.

>>8777624
>sugar, milk, and ice
So like ice cream?

>>8774518
More like a slightly saner version

>>8777674
Yeah, like ice cream if ice cream was made with mostly ice and then flavored with high fructose corn syrup and instant coffee

>>8777646
Probably a Mexican landwhale desu

You don't know anything about corporate food service, there is always guideline to follow about how much to prep, and you can't deviate from it. Controlling waste is one the things you get apsultulely deemed for not doing, you could take home a team of copier paper and no one would care, but if you have to throw away 5 hotdogs at the end of your shift it's 10 minutes of lecture.
The better ones do it off some customer business projection, so if they were only coming in once a week, it would never catch it.

>>8763653
Learn to say no to call in shifts.

>>8777646
Lol ok
Its just a different way to have coffee
Try living in Florida where it was 96 outside yesterday
Espresso frapps are a really great balance and its not like a shake, its more like a coffee slushie
Not for everyday but to say that a blended drink is somehow different than drinking a hot chocolate with espresso in it is real childish

WHERE FUCK CAN I GET A FLAT-WHITE IN THE US I'M FUCKING DYING YOU COFFEE TASTES LIKE SUGAR OR STALE PISS ARRRR

t. Australian

>>8778546
There are like 4 places within 20 miles that can make a flat white and I live in fucking Orlando. Not exactly a coffee hub. Plus a Starbucks will make one, just get an extra shot or a short size for the extra coffee to milk ratio

Shit. You store cashiers are so fucking salty. While I agree with most of your complaints on smug dipshit customers, there's no reason to hate on the naive ones.

I've never met anyone this salty in real life situations besides some /r9k/ anons.

Hey /ck/

is cofee just like tea or something

>>8778865
No because it doesnt involve dried leaves. Tisane refers to a tea-like beverage made of sticks and fruit or something. Coffee is steeped roasted seeds. Natives did use unroasted coffew beans like a tea before trying to burn them, similar to yerba mate, which also gave central americans caffeine highs so they could do more shit. The seeds are from coffee cherries that grow on a coffee tree. You CAN make what is called a cascara tea out of the fruit, which will also have caffeine but tastes alot different from what Ive heard.

>>8778865
Have you never had coffee
