I hate it when I get customers who don't speak English, try to order something and then scream at me when I don't understand, "I vant blojeersdtyds and yjueedyscs! Give me Venti Kdghewesnes, Nwmhjreetuu, Cvodkdjef!" Yes, sir, would you like our pastry of the day... a slice of Kquueududosod?! Aaaaaaaarrrrgh!

I hate it when I have a snotty customer who thinks his or her (although it's mostly women) **** doesn't stink stand in front of my register talking on a cellphone or to a friend and if I just happen to get part of her order wrong, she'll say loudly, "Gaaaawd! The idiots who work at these places! It's un-be-liev-able!". As if I can't understand what she's saying!

Hey, cora113, don't you hate it when those same customers will stand there, tapping their foot impatiently while you get them their change... even if it's a lousy three cents! THEN, sometimes they'll make a big show of throwing a penny or two at you--not into the tip jar, oh no, that would require too much effort, and saying grandly, "Keep the change!". Thanks you cheap mother ****er!

I am liking this :)
I hate it when....a lazy **** regular calls in her drink and sits in the car for 5 minutes before coming in to pay. I CAN SEE YOU.
I hate it when....I go to take their money for the transaction and its flinged out in crunched up dollar bills onto the counter. Thanks.
I hate it when....there are 4 people on the floor, yet 3 are in the back chit-chatting.
I hate it when....people get to the bar and say "Thats not what I ordered." When in reality, it was, but you were on the phone and didnt pay attention when I said your drink back to you.
I hate it when....I go into work. Ever. (optimism?) :)

I hate it when I work the full two weeks after I give notice to leave and still am considered unrehireable for some reason.

I hate it when a customer says something funny/stupid like, "I'd like a GRAND White Mocha over rice" and when I laugh at the rice thing, the customer gets all bent out of shape. Hey, I'm sorry, a-hole! Your wife even laughed at you and said something about how disgusting that sounded. I was not questioning your obvious credentials as one of the premier English speakers of the Western World. Sir, you really need to lighten up. White Mocha over rice! Hahaha!

Today this loony woman arrived at my register. She ordered a Venti White Mocha with two extra shots. I was writing up her cup and asked her for her name. She leaned in close and said loudly, "WHY?! Why?! Why do you need my name? You don't need my name! I am not giving you my name!". Yikes, lady, relax, I was just asking so that when we call your drink there isn't a mad scrum at the counter with people getting impatient and taking a drink that isn't theirs. So then, I tried to explain this to her. Ooops, my bad. She gave me this look that made my hair stand on end and then told me, "WHY?! Just how long am I expected to wait for my White Mocha?! I want my drink now!".
Me thinks she had too much caffeine already or else she needed to be on tranquilizers. Man, she was a piece of work.

Update:
I hate it when I ask "WHAT SIZE" multiple times and the one-track minded customer repeats their gdamn order over and over again thinking I'm asking what they wanted.
How clear can I **** be by asking what **** size, I even reach my hand out towards the cups to indicate that I'm asking about what size god-**** cup they want. And this is between two plain english speaking people. Absolutely ridiculous.
Abso-****-lutely ridiculous!

I hate it when people start complaining about the price of the drink(s).
"I could've gotten 2 iced mochas at Tim Horton's and it would've cost $5!! My god, and it's like, double the price here!!"
YEAH, you could have. But instead you chose to come to effing starbucks. Don't complain to me about the price when you KNOW that starbucks will be more expensive.I hate it when a customer, KNOWS whats wrong with their drink without even trying.
"Is there syrup in there?" I don't know, TRY IT!I hate it when the FEW times I actually WORK with my manager, I will always be missing ONE THING (ie a HAIRTIE on the one time I work with him. My pen, something is ALWAYS wrong with my shoes.)
I hate it when people give you two handfuls of change for you to count. "Sorry I didn't feel like checking." What am I? A hobo? If you don't want to count your change, what makes you think I do?!

LOL!!!!
I hate it when my manager is in the back just chitchatting on the phone with friends. WOW, I would love to do that and still get paid for it.

Hahaha! X.yoru, I think that's an epidemic amongst Sbux managers!! How can we develop a "vaccine" for that? Maybe start a rumour that DM's will be watching the camera to monitor who's sitting in the back: wouldn't that be considered theft of company time?

I also hate it when customers blow their @$#%*&# noses at the condiment bar!!! How disgusting is that?!

I hate it when.. Starbucks implements policies and later discourages you to keep them. IE: the d@mn refill policy. I get yelled at daily because **OHHH HERE IT COMES** "the other stores do it" when I casually remind a customer that the refill policy is "same day same visit".. When really I just don't want to touch their iced tea cup that is crusted shut from sitting in their car for days.
Basically my biggest complaints include the company that tells us to use this policy, but won't back us up if we do. And, I hate the people that, at any point, tell you another store does anything. GO BACK TO THAT STORE, THEN.

DARKROAST: Ahh, but this is where my manager seems to be a smartas$ in. He starts with sitting down at the desk where the camera is, then after a while he looks like he is putting down the phone and instead walks over to where there are no cameras and continues talking.
-____-I hate it when customers get angry at you during a rush of drinks for:
1) the stupid front till barista marked your drink wrong/forgot to put it in.
2) "I've been here for about 5 min. Is my drink ready yet?"

I hate it when...
-Customers throw their money/cards on the counter, even though i make a clear effort to grab their money before it hits the counter.
-Customers say "oh i didnt want whip on that!"
-Customers want to fight over being charged for Breve.. "Whats the difference, you have half and half over there? You're going to charge me b/c you have to steam it?"
-Customers want us to break an 100 dollar bill, when we first open and all they buy is a tall coffee.
-Non-English speaking customers ask you if you speak (Spanish mostly) and get upset when you don't, then they will yell what they want over and over, without saying the say. "Caramel Cappuccino!" What size? "CARAMEL CAPPUCCINO!" What Size? "CARA-MEL CAPPUCCINO!!"(side-note: caramel cappuccino is Spanish for Grande Caramel Frappuccino)

I hate it when...people call them "Frapps". They are Frappaccinos. I don't see anything on the menu board labled Frapp. Three more sylablles are not going to kill you.

RE: I hated it when people left giant **** messes on tables or spread their crumbs for a ten foot radius. There was a store I covered at a couple times that had *the* messiest clientele. Cups, bags, straw wrappers, napkins on tables, chairs, and floors, crumbs spread a mile around.
I would sweep the floor and ten minutes later, it would look like I hadn't done anything!
Please people! Throw away your trash instead of leaving it around like that!Yeah, the other day I went to empty out the trash at the condiment bar... whew, it really stank! Why? Oh, some a-hole had tossed in a fully loaded diaper! Mmmm, good times, my friends, good times.

I hate when a customer or customers who do not speak English order five trillion items and then come up to my register and can't remember even one thing they just ordered! And then they say, "He already take our order!", meaning one of my co-workers who expedited for me. And, unfortunately, this co-worker just left on break or to empty the trash or something. Then I'm forced to painstakingly ask them to repeat their order to me. Everyone is angry and the line stops moving.

I actually had this rich white shellacked hag stand at my register snapping her fingers at me as she waited for her change! Unbelievable! I wanted so badly to blow my nose into her Venti Sugar-Free Non-Fat Latte!!

I hate people who pay for a $2.00 cup of coffee with a $100 bill and then get bent out of shape when I tell them I can't take a bill of that denomination. They get HIGHLY irritated by this. Hey, buddy, it's not my fault!

I HATE IT WHEN... those computer geeks, you know the onese i mean...the-I drive a Beemer-And I'm better than you-doofus's, buy a bottle of water or a tall coffee and camps out with his laptop crapola for 2 hours. There should be a 30 minute time limit for these bozos!

To TeaMinus10....and along with the messes the adults make...I wish they would put up signs in the stores that say something along the lines of: "This Is Not A Daycare - Please Control Your Children (our furniture is not considered athletic equipment for kids) Clean Up Your Children's Mess!" However, I have seen some of the messes the ADULTS make and it looks like animals had a fight there before I arrived! LOL

Today we had a 3 year old run around the store and went behind the counter with his mother chasing him.

I hate it when... kids scream & their parents don't do anything about it! Also, I hate it when the junior high school down the street has a 1/2 day - imagine 100-200 obnoxious 12-14 year olds rushing the counter, all wanting Passion Tea Lemonades, Hot Chocolates, and Java Chip Frappucinos. A true Starbucks nightmare.
