You are fooling no one when you come in with your refill iced coffee with your made up chicken scratch hand writing at a sad attempt to trace over the drink code which was originally there... 2 weeks ago. Please, do not put me in the awkward position of having to say 'okay, just this one time' any longer. Also, its even more awkward when you tell me you got it the same morning at my store, especially when I've been the only one working. please, just stop.</p> <p>Best regards,</p> <p>Mbarlow1 </p> http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/topic.php?id=1775&page=3#post-66255 Thu, 31 May 2012 22:36:57 +0000 This_is_nonfat_right 66255@http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/ <p>Oh no I just always work weekends, but I would like a weekend day off every once and a while.

You come in EVERY day during afternoon rush and always want to know what breakfast sandwiches we have. WHY??? You too lazy to get up in the morning? Obviously you are because you look like you never shower! I have lied to you about being out of sandwiches because I am the only one behind the register, I have no floater, and I do not feel like looking for any sandwiches.</p> <p>Dear Customer #2<br /> I am new. Stop coming into the store with the pissy look on your face ordering an iced latte with soy, seven pumps vanilla and seven pumps hazelnut. You rattle the order off so fast that I just want to grab you, pull you over the counter and force you to ring in your own drink, then make it. </p> <p>Dear Customer #3<br /> Yes, you, old fat man. DO NOT come in the store, buy a bag of coffee and DEMAND a free cup of coffee. NOT ONCE DID YOU MENTION YOU HAD A GOLD CARD! Going to your beat up pick up truck and grabbing your iPhone and then shoving it in my face to show me the starbucks web site makes you look like the old fat **** that you are. </p> http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/topic.php?id=1775&page=2#post-65976 Tue, 29 May 2012 01:59:12 +0000 Suckbuck 65976@http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/ <p>Dear motherf***er Howard,</p> <p>I hate you ****...I hate you ever since a Starbucks was chosen to open in OUR UNIVERSITY LIBRARY!!! You ****, son of ****, who opens a Starbucks in library. Thanks for ruining my study time...</p> <p>Dear Barista X (Not my partner: thank God!)</p> <p>I don't know what the fcuk is wrong with you and as to why you are always so bi**chy! In fact you are well known as b*itch in our school. I don't like how you introduce yourself as "What? What you want?". I also don't like how you make espresso solo instead of coffee and say "May be next time I will make it right". You know what I work at Starsucks too and I understand that sometimes its too much stress, but you don't have to ALWAYS act like a jerk, and if you really hate your job, please do your self a favour....Quit NOW...</p> <p>Dear customers:</p> <p>I don't understand as to why some of you would come to Starsucks to get cold water without feeling cheap!!! I also don't understand as to why would you whine about being broke and how you are spending too much money on *us*...Well guess I don't give a damn ****...if you really want to save money, DON'T COME TO STARBUCKS EVERY SINGLE DAY you idiot! Why don't you just go to Macs and get those sh*tty latte for a dollar-something from their machine, or better yer Why don't you just drink coffee at home? </p> http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/topic.php?id=1775&page=2#post-65866 Mon, 28 May 2012 00:44:39 +0000 crucial_buzz 65866@http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/ <p>Dear stupid customer,</p> <p>You ordered a macchiato. I asked specifically "caramel or traditional espresso macchiato?". You asked what a traditional one was. I said "it's espresso with a dollop *insert spoon scooping motion* of foam on top".<br /> You agreed that's what you want. I asked how many shots of espresso? You said 2.</p> <p>When your drink came up, you looked disgusted at how small it was. You fought with my bar barista, who should have thrown it at you, but instead said "no problem dear, what do you want?". </p> <p>You ended up with a caramel macchiato. It probably wasn't decaf because even after 6 years this guy still loves his job. And he gladly remade it for you.<br /> ****, you got what you asked for! It's not our problem you're a stupid hooker! Did you not see that line out the door? Do you honestly think you're the only customer when it's standing room only? You stupid cow, how 'bout you **** listen next time?<br /> You know what? Just get a ****' frappuccino like all the other stupid non-coffee drinkin' a-holes that come in here. </p> http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/topic.php?id=1775&page=2#post-65842 Sun, 27 May 2012 19:40:57 +0000 ohgodpleasehelp 65842@http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/ <p>Dear corporate,</p> <p>Thanks so much for firing my friend from supervisory position for forgetting to write down a till drop bag number in the cash management log. Even though those get ripped open and destroyed the very next day, and provide only a facade of security in the cash handling process. </p> <p>You guys sure know how to keep our spirits up; between refusing to staff us to the level that we *need* to provide consistent service, switching items from our daily to our weekly order without prior notification, and not paying anywhere near a living wage for the area that we live in...yeah. You guys must really feel our pain here on the front lines, don't you? When you show up at our stores, showing off your rolex submariner.</p> <p>And while I'm at it, thanks for propagating the myth that being a barista is a lifelong career. Thanks for paying supervisors .60 cents more per hour than a barista and saddling them with management-level responsibilities. </p> <p>Finally, thank you for treating me with smiles and optimism in the beginning, and then gradually, over the past few years, revealing that reptilian skin lurking just beneath the surface.</p> <p>THANK YOU, CORPORATE!</p> <p>****!!! </p> http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/topic.php?id=1775&page=2#post-65839 Sun, 27 May 2012 17:40:33 +0000 skinnycaramellatte 65839@http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/ <p>Dear stupid **** customer who wants a soy topper,<br /> Sorry you stupid ****, but we are actually supposed to charge for soy at starbucks. sorry that no one else charges you, but i'm going to. because it's the rules. so either get a **** card and register it, earn rewards, and get free soy or stop being a cheap **** and pay a extra 60 cents for soy.<br /> don't ****+complain at me for following policy &amp; DON'T tell me how to do my job.<br /> p.s i hope you enjoyed the wad of spit and the re-steamed soy that had been sitting in the pitcher for who knows how long<br /> PEACE. </p> http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/topic.php?id=6392#post-65837 Sun, 27 May 2012 16:41:29 +0000 skinnycaramellatte 65837@http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/ <p>i hate it when people ask you to cut their pastries or sandwich. it's like do it your own damn self lazy ****. i'm not a waitress. i always tell them we aren't allowed to do that and just give them a knife. </p> http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/topic.php?id=6392#post-65808 Sun, 27 May 2012 00:39:16 +0000 crucial_buzz 65808@http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/ <p>****! Go to Burger King if you want a croissant breakfast sandwich! Or freakin' Dunkin Donuts.</p> <p>And to all the people who ordered frappaaaaaaaaays today, Go to Burger King! They're a dollar. Literally. The sign said so! So take that $6 you were going to spend on a frappaaaaay and tip me $5 for the info. </p> http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/topic.php?id=1775&page=2#post-65805 Sat, 26 May 2012 23:53:05 +0000 SbuxSkipper 65805@http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/ <p>Here I go again:</p> <p>Dear 90% of our customers,</p> <p> Please STOP telling me your entire drink order before telling me what size. You act as if here's no menu with size guidelines and prices. As if we would sell one drink in one size. "I want a caramel frappucino" means NOTHING to me unless I know what size cup to write it on. And by the way, there's no such thing as a "regular sized coffee of the day". WTF is this, Starbucks Diner? Also, saying "skim" makes me want to hop into my time machine and stop by 1992 so I can give you a heads up that in 20 yrs it will be known as a NONFAT or SKINNY latte.</p> <p>Dear customers who insist on having 1% milk:</p> <p>I loathe you. </p> http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/topic.php?id=6392#post-65797 Sat, 26 May 2012 22:45:12 +0000 IloveSBUX 65797@http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/ <p>Whomever said yes the first time to the lady who wanted her sandwich on a croissant should be shot! That is just one of many examples illustrating how we make our own jobs that much harder... </p> http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/topic.php?id=6392#post-65762 Sat, 26 May 2012 10:10:15 +0000 Cloverrated 65762@http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/ <p>There's a girl who comes in almost every morning from one of the like, fifty salons within two feet of our store who orders a sausage, egg &amp; cheese sandwich on a croissant. Like, she has us disassemble the sandwich, cut the croissant, reassemble it and toast it. And I swear to God she gets pissy when she's charged for both items EVERY SINGLE TIME. </p> <p>For as much as closing can be a total downer, I'm kinda glad I don't have to deal with opening anymore. </p> http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/topic.php?id=1775&page=2#post-65746 Sat, 26 May 2012 01:10:56 +0000 crucial_buzz 65746@http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/ <p>Just because of that.^</p> <p>Dear pregnant barista,</p> <p>I'm so glad that even though sometimes you have to run off the floor to pee, you're otherwise awesome. I know this isn't your first child, but you could still milk being pregnant (no pun intended), and you don't. You do everything asked of you, and refuse help when I ask if you want help with the preclosing. You're awesome.<br /> Oh yeah, and thank you so much for reading my mind. That **** needed decaffing. </p> http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/topic.php?id=1775&page=2#post-65735 Fri, 25 May 2012 23:19:04 +0000 SbuxSkipper 65735@http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/ <p>Dear severely overweight customers who bring in their overweight young children,</p> <p> Please stop buying your underage children venti frappucinos with extra caramel, whipped cream and a sausage sandwich. And when I suggest a caffeine free option for the youngster, don't give me attitude like I'm the as.shole here. Youre killing your kid! For the love of Oden, put the junk food down Jabba, and walk both your as.ses home to try and burn off the 5000 calories you just let your 9 yr old consume. When theyre getting gastric bypass surgery at 23 years old, know that its a result of your parental abuse and horrible example- don't blame starbucks.</p> <p>Dear pregnant barista,</p> <p>Stop giving everyone major f'ing attitude and get over yourself. If you can't do this job, don't work here anymore. I am SO OVER your complaining and entitled attitude. What, because you're having a baby it means you get to disrespect everyone but your fav SS who let's you take 45 min breaks and leave whenever you want? F that! If you choose to open every single morning, DEAL WITH IT! I dont know why everyone sweats you so hard and loves your "sarcastic" sense of humor, but I'm NOT intimidated by you. B.itch, I have 2 very young kids and still manage to get there at 4:30am with a smile on my face, AND I have the maturity and human decency to stare into your deadpan glazed over eyes on that sour puss of yours and greet you with a pleasant "good morning". Ignore me again and I will slash your tires. </p> http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/topic.php?id=6400#post-65663 Fri, 25 May 2012 08:58:09 +0000 KDH 65663@http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/ <p>Whoa.

Like, really, really loud. I have turned into the milk foaming equivalent of one of Pavlov's dogs because you, Sir, have trained me to repeat your order and say drive around and then immediately **** the headset off of my head to avoid being deafened by your truck as you turn it over to pull forward. </p> <p>I know that you can't help that. But could you at least have the decency to say "Hey, might wanna cover your ears, this is gonna be loud." But you don't. So you get decaf tomorrow. Enjoy. </p> <p>Dear Pastry Delivery People,</p> <p>Y'all get paid more than I do, why do I have to put away the pastries that you deliver 5 minutes before I'm supposed to clock out at the end of the night? I know it's "Starbucks' policy" and all but fcuk you for getting paid for work that I'm doing for you. You put them all right in front of the freezer, why not just toss em inside? </p> http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/topic.php?id=1775&page=2#post-65589 Fri, 25 May 2012 00:00:08 +0000 crucial_buzz 65589@http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/ <p>Dear regular banjo player,</p> <p>I didn't realize you drove. You were totally baked the other day. And you drove. That's **** up. You're going to get caught one of these days.</p> <p>Dear Howard Schultz,</p> <p>You should pay your employees more. And,yes, I understand that Starbucks has kind of gotten out of control and become the pseudo-equivalent of a coffee McDonalds, just too pretentious to have a dollar menu...... That doesn't mean you can't pay the shifts or ASM's more money.<br /> Maybe, if you did, you would attract more quality employees like I have at my store.<br /> And more quality employees means more employees who care about quality control across the USA.<br /> Which means that between St. Augustine, FL, Bar Harbour, MN and Joshua Tree, CA, people are going to get the same thing.<br /> Or maybe I just drank too much tonight. </p> http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/topic.php?id=1775&page=2#post-65584 Thu, 24 May 2012 23:28:08 +0000 TallHotCoffee 65584@http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/ <p>Dear C****** with the NYC accent,</p> <p>I really think you're a creepy fvcker the way you follow N*** </p> <p>a) to and from the dumpster when she dumps trash,<br /> b) all over the store whenever she's out from behind the counter.<br /> c) TO THE GODDAMNED BATHROOMS AS SHE CLEANS THEM.</p> <p>You're like 65 dude, seriously wtf. </p> http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/topic.php?id=1775&page=2#post-65580 Thu, 24 May 2012 22:15:42 +0000 coffeechick 65580@http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/ <p>Dear old idiot blonde woman,<br /> You are at least 60 and it's not cute to talk like a 5 year old.

So particular! Luckily she's nice as pie or else I'd flip out. </p> <p>Honestly, if you're nice to me, you can order whatever craziness you want. </p> http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/topic.php?id=6400#post-65567 Thu, 24 May 2012 20:57:02 +0000 crucial_buzz 65567@http://www.ihatestarbucks.com/bb/ <p>oh my GOD!

You're not half bad now. But why didn't you take that job offer? It payed more, you're MY age, and you're always complaining about how much our pay sucks.</p> <p>Dear customer,<br /> You come up to me and say "he knows what I want." Well, I don't and I'm the one at the register. That uuber nice bar barista starts making your "usual" while I'm trying to figure out what your drink is. By the time I'm done with you, your drink is made and the label maker just printed out the label for YOUR drink. The bar barista then ends up making another one. Wasteful. Just be **** polite and say whatever ridiculous piece of crap drink you get. If you're too ashamed to say you get a single shot venti half pump skinny mocha with extra whip cream, then maybe you should grow a pair of nuts and order something other than frou frou coffee, SIR.<br /> Man up. </p>
