smoking out in the backroom and making out with female shift in the back (other stuff took place outside work with her) ;-) this was when working at starbucks was fun for me go figure.

Smoked behind the bakery next door and worked the closing shift eating EVERYTHING in the pastry case. I mean everything. I then proceeded to put an armpit hair in a douchey customers iced coffee. Weed makes starbucks bearable.

Nothing gross...but when a customer yelled at me for not automatically knowing her drink when she walked in the door, I tearfully apologized and explained that I had brain damage from a car wreck years ago. She apologized and left the store crying. Best day ever.
...and no, I wasn't in a wreck...although brain damage is questionable. ;)

umm nothing really crazy I've just done a lot of petty things to spite customers.
some old fart was yelling at me about not wearing gloves AND using the wax paper to get his nasty pastry giving me a lecture about flu season and blah blah blah so when he screamed across the store that there was no half and half (our condiment bar is literally about 100 feet away from the registers) I stepped into the walk in fridge, closed the door behind me, and licked the spout of the half and half carafe and then gave it to him LOL I felt like such an idiot after but at the time I was livid.

the guy who threw sugar at me came back one day with his wife, after he walked off i casually informed her that he hits on all our female baristas and others claim to have seen him in the store with other women, He hasn't came back since....

This lady once lectured me on how a latte is apparently supposed to be half foam half milk. She comes in all the time and all four of her precious shots of espresso are decaf. I saw my manager drop a dollar of hers once. I just picked it it up and put it in my pocket.

Now that i think about it, i've done some **** in my 4 miserable years at the bux.
- smoked in the basement
- smoked in the basement with my manager
- **** my shift supervisor
- **** my shift supervisor in the back room (After we closed the store, i'm not THAT crazy. yet. )
- filled both the hoppers at bar with decaf. Realized it was decaf and still kept it.
- made "special straws". Took a bunch of green straws, dipped them in the toilet bowl and handed them to the customers we REALLY didnt like. But at some point the special straws got mixed with the regular straws so no partners drank iced drinks for a while.
- spitting in the cup is quite **** the floor, so once a customer really **** me off, i licked my hand, whipped it against the bottom of my shoe and then whipped it in his cup.
- made multi colored whipped cream and left them for the opening shifts that i didnt like
- hid timers all over the store and set them to go off with in 15 second intervals 10 minutes after the opening shift clocks in to **** him off
- blended every single thing in the store. Everything. As a warning to other partners, dont ever blend an egg salad sandwhich. Thats just nasty.
- the first time i quit, right before i left i took a sleeve of tall cups, unwrapped it and dipped my balls in every cup and then put it out on the floor.yea i hate my job.

HAHAAHAHAjskdls;f' ^
i've blended everything in the store before. cups, muffins, pastries, sleeves, paper, straws, lids, etc.
actually on a few occasions when i was really angry at work, i'd be doing dishes in the back. then i'd take a bunch of plates and mugs and go outside where the dumpsters at, and i'd chuck the plates and glasses against the wall in an angry raging fit. felt nice destroying someone else's property.Posted 3 years ago # -
I've never done anything extreme like dipping my balls into a cup or anything. But I've gotten to the point where, if I drop lids or cups or anything on the ground, I just pick them back up and put them out for use anyway.
I don't do anything to food or drinks, but I'll grab someone's pastry with my bare hand. Rebellious, I know. But get real - Nobody's going to get sick from my hand contact, especially with how much we have to wash them. Do I get sick when I touch my own scone? No.
I brew on top of leftover old coffee. I don't care.
I use "expired" shots. I don't care.
I steam milk in un-rinsed pitchers. I don't care.Honestly, I don't even know how many pumps of syrup or scoops of whatever go in certain drinks anymore. I forgot a long time ago when I stopped caring.
I **** hate this job.

if the "shots" expire after 10 seconds..every espresso drink you make would be full of dead shots... the just like to waste coffee beans.

whippits.
return my markout for cash to stores out of my district.Posted 3 years ago # -
Sometimes when I'm "tidying up" the pastry case, I "accidentally" spray a few pastries with the window cleaner as I'm wiping the glass. Only a few though, because I have to keep an eye on which pastries get sold. If someone I actually care about orders an infected pastry, I will "accidentally" drop it on the floor so I can't sell it to them.

I sell my markout to one of my dad's coworkers for 5 bucks a pound. she gets it for really cheap and I get a couple bucks here and there. If she wants more than one pound I buy it and sell it to her for 15% off, so she still gets it cheap and I still make a little money.
I also grab the DT pastries with my bare hands when there aren't any people in the lobby.

probly not as good as XH latte's, but this happened when a customer asked my shift for my manager's card as i was making her a caramel macchiato. she then asked me my name and i asked her, jokingly, if she was going to complain to my manager about me, to which she replied, "well you are usually quite curt with me"
so i deadpanned, "i'm sorry if i come off that way, but being in social situations is hard for me...i have asperger's". when i gave her her drink she seemed quite embarrassed and quickly left
