   Today I got to witness the most disgusting drink. I'm new so maybe I'll get to see more horrid things.

   Short Caramel Macchiato in a venti cup, 7 pump, extra whip cream, extra caramel drizzle. The Shift super told me coat the foam with extra caramel, fill to the top of the cup with whip cream then cover it in tons of caramel. As I was doing the drizzle I heard this little voice, mmmmmming and mmmore, more, more! Horrified I looked over and it was the customer that ordered it. She made me use almost half a bottle of caramel then for a spoon with her drink! Luckily it was 6 am and I was still half asleep to be as shocked as I am now.

   I had an orca who ecstatically spooned caramel and whipped cream and frappuccino into her mouth while standing at the handoff plane, after wanting the cup to be "lathered" in caramel. And wanting enough caramel on the whip cream that it was totally brown. Then, she came back a couple minutes later saying she wanted it remade because it was "bitter" how on earth any frappuccino could ever taste bitter is totally beyond me. Oh, and she also had a mocha frappuccino (venti) with extra pumps of chocolate. And apparently, after eating almost half of each, they were "too bitter" and guess what? She kept the first too, even though she supposedly didn't like them. She just wanted to stuff her face like a piggy.

   By the time we were done with her we had used up an entire caramel bottle and apparently she was eating the mocha one too. So that would be too lathered venti caramel frappuccino's with extra whip coated with caramel and two mocha frappuccino's with extra chocolate (both venti). Wow. What a piggy.

   Wow! Sometimes I feel like a drug dealer for fatties. Like we hook them up with sugary fat-filled drinks. I have nothing against fatties, but when they come every day and order a frap with extra everything or a breve anything, that is just pathetic. I know it's hard to lose weight and have self control, so don't even come to starbucks and you'll probably lose 10 pounds!

   that sounds bizzare! I knew a partner that got chai in his PTLs. Kinda reminds me of the berry chai infusions.

    @J_S_N: I've had so many customers like your orca: where more is never enough! Don't these people have any shame whatsoever? Apparently not!

    These people must want the coffee but don't like the taste. So they ask for all this crazy amount of sugar in their drinks. What is sad is that some people come in everyday for the same drink. Diabetes anyone?

    Some of the drinks our customers ask for are just ridiculous. And caramel seems to be the big one...we have one customer who actually asks us to take the cap off the caramel bottle and pour it into her cup to save time (she too asks for at least an inch in the bottom of her cup for a caramel frapp). It is disgusting. But instead of all the smoothies and other "healthy" drinks they want to push, the 'Bucks should just go all out and offer super, gooey, over-the-top caramel and WC drinks to the fat slobs who want them and will pay 6 dollars a pop for them. Give 'em what they want!

    Yeah, isn't it weird that they are trying to make everything so healthy, when most customers just want to stuff their faces with sugar? I think it's going to be a total disaster. OR people will think, oh it doesn't have any artificial colors or trans fat? then I can have 5 brownies because they're "healthy"!

    Maybe because it's sugar-free she thinks she'll lose weight but with breve?! ....Sure

    It's the low carb diets. They tell you that breve is ok in coffee (like a tablespoon) because it has fewer carbs, so people think they can have breve lattes. That's like if a diet told you it's ok to have bacon and you go eat 2 pounds of bacon for breakfast. Idiots!

    I get a customer that comes in every morning and orders a tall breve 10 pump white mocha 6 pump caramel w/extra whipped cream in a venti cup with extra caramel drizzle on top as well as inside of the cup.
    Worst part? She's a diabetic and she keeps complaining that we should get sugar-free whipped cream and caramel drizzle.
    *eye roll*
    some people just lack common sense.

    One guy told me he had to have breve because regular milk made him sick. I wondered for a second if he didn't realize that half&half is, in fact, milk-based. The placebo effect works wonders for some people!

    Have a regular customer who orders a Venti black shaken ice tea with 15 pumps of Classic. We get a lot of customers through the drive-thru who order extra pumps, extra whip, caramel down the sides and bottom in frappuccinos. Most are grossly overweight, their stomachs wrap partially around the steering wheel.Its very sad. By the way these are breakfast orders before 8AM.

    Kids under 12 should not be allowed sugary espresso drinks. they don't need the caff or extra suger. This young obese girl comes in every day and orders a Quad venti mocha frapp with caramel and extra whip with drizz until you can't see the whip anymore!
    Other obese people order 'venti mocha frapp. light with extra mocha, vanilla syrup, drizz and whip. WTF "oh well, gotta cheat a litte' How about ordering an iced venti water to wash down that chemical sludge!! Have you seen what frapp mix is made out of!? It's something out a sci-fi movie

    This diabetic woman came in and inquired about our SF syrups for 10 minutes!!! THen after ordering a grande suger free fat free vanilla latte she asks for whip and drizz!! That has so much fat and sugar (it's made with 8 pums of vanilla!)

    Remember when we used to charge people that wanted extra caramel? I think it should be brought back. And what about the SKVL with WC? Why people?

    I once had a customer order a Grande TEN pump white mocha, FIVE pumps regular mocha, (get this..) skim milk of COURSE, like it really matters at this point.. WITH whip hot chocolate. I told the regular Issac Newton that a Grande normally only gets four pumps just in case he wasn't aware of our syrup/size ratio... of course he gets angry that i'm questioning his syrup, and yells at me "I want a hot chocolate on steroids OK?"

    Seriously? What is your problem you gluttonous creaton?

    I've got this beluga who comes in choc full of diabetes, a traecheotomy (spelling?), ya know the tube thing sticking through a hole in your throat so you can breath b/c your humongous. Anywhooo, this f*cker buys 7 fruit and cheese plates, a venti pumpkin spice latte w/ nonfat milk, extra pumps, whip cream, etc... I so badly want to be like, 'bro just because the items in the fruit and cheese plate are relatively healthy, eating 4,000 of them a week probably ain't the best idea. Oh and what the **** is up with people ordering nonfat milk with extra whip and 4 gallons of caramel. Retards. God I hate people

    Haha these drinks are awesome...they make no sense.

    I order soy, but I don't have a milk allergy and am not doing it for health reasons (hello, the soy we use isn't healthy anyway). But I generally don't get anything with any milk products - whipped cream, white mocha, caramel topping...I just think they're nasty.

    I guess this is why I'm sick of this job, among other things - watching nasty people down 3 or 4 breakfast sandwiches at a time with their extra extra whip. It's just nauseating.

    And as a rule, if you order 3 or 4 of ANYTHING at Starbucks, you have a problem. Except maybe petite vanilla scones.
