"Hi, I want a..." And thus begins my day, now this is fine, but the following must be put on the internet for everyone's entertainment. Someone actually ordered the following drink.
"Triple Viente, 7 pump vanilla, 6 pump sugar free vanilla, 1%, whole milk thick foam, 4 splenda latte."
seriously, that is insanity. How did you even come up with it!? And another thing, 1%...Listen, we have whole milk and non fat. Pretty sure, yep, there is no way I am mixing 1%. I am past the point of being angry with this now I just laugh. Laugh bitterly with some tears.
and another thing,
while you get into a line, please realize that a line is at its essence, something that you enter into with a destination in mind! Most likely my cash register. So, when you have been standing there, twirling your hair or contemplating world domination or whatever it is you do, please, don't look at me like I have just asked you a mathematical theorem when you arrive at your destination. Don't make me guess either. It is not a fun game, it makes me hate you.

I am cracking up reading this! OK, I admit...I have been one of those high-maintenance orderers! But I have only gone so far as to say:
Grande, non-fat, sugar-free, extra-hot hazelnut latte.
Is that ridiculous?
Perhaps Starbucks should just allow everyone to mark their own paper cup...wouldn't that be fun?!?!
Karla,
I am so glad you work in the hospitality industry. You are PERFECT for the job!!
LeeAnn,
so very true, it is a good thing that despite all of this I do love it. I miss you! Come over to the chatt town.
Sarah, your fine! Who blames you for the x-tra hot? Starbucks only makes it to 145 which is mearly tempid.
Holsts,
it would be hard for me to love ya'll anymore. It was such a joy to see you. I have been retelling the ongoings of the little mayor all over the chatt town.
I am so bummed about Ani! We will figure something out soon.
We will keep in touch.

Aaggghhh!!! Working has me far from doing my normal blog check, comment, or write. Tragic, indeed! But, I had to comment on this post, because it is HILARIOUS.
Thanks for sharing in your angst. It makes me laugh. :-)
Wow- I am super picky about just about everything, but coffee. Just black regular, fine. Maybe a little room for half-and-half, but I never ask for that. If there isn't enough room, I sip off the top.
Then again, I never go to Starbucks. Sorry, Karla, down with the "man!"
hehehehe have fun ;oP
