I hate the way a lot of customers pronounce Trenta... "May I please have a Trenter...Trentee... Passion Tea?" Sounds so dumb.

"Venny mochalatty"
"Ok, Venti Mocha... did you want whip cream on that?"
"I want it made with steamed milk."
:/

When ringing up, my newer coworker got mixed up and told me to start steaming a grande 2%, for a customer who had just ordered a SKPM, to which the customer nearly choked as she screamed at the top of her lungs...
"SKINNY FAT!"... ?

While we're on the subject, don't play along with the "red-eye/black-eye" people. A while back a young man (early 20's) wanted a "regler-red-eye-and-don't-charge-me-extra". After adding a shot to a grande coffee he barked that it has "always come in a large cup with three shots!".
"Oh..." I said as I re-made it all decaf, "At this store we've been calling it something completely different. From now on, just ask for a brown eye." Amazingly, he smiled and went away.
My apologies to whoever helped him next.

Lol, it's not cafe ole..like ole ole ole ;)
A cafe misto used to be a cafe au lait. Which is french or something for coffee with milk.. Starbucks just likes to make up new stupid names for their same stupid drinks so new idiots that haven't ordered them off the menu are like omg wtf is this now that it has this amazing name I must have.. like an earl grey tea latte was a london fog, and smoothies used to be a nourishing blend then a vivanno then..etc not really important anymore
We get some pretty bad stuff at my store being as we're so busy, but trying to figure out if someone wants a hot non fat no whip mocha, a white mocha frappucino or a mocha frappucino light sometimes really gets to me.

Hahaha, that's where I got my name from, we had a guy walk in and ask for "a large coffee with two shots in it, I think it's called a brown eye..." girl on register had to walk away before laughing while I made it clear I was starting his black eye.

there are too many drink names that **** me off! If one more person orders a Mochaccino, or a frappe...i swear i am gonna lose it!!!

a mochacino is actually a cappucino with mocha in it. it's a real drink that exists at every other coffee shop however sbux decided to realease it as if it was new and call it a cocoa cappucino, which makes me feel like an idiot every time i say it. anyhow.
i hate it when people ask for extra shots of caffeine. or no 'coffee flavor'. people always say frappy. what the **** is that? we dont serve that here! we had someone argue with our shift and insist that mocha is pronounced moCHa. not moka. i hate it wen people say mocha latte and ask for a hot caramel frappucino. we also had a lady try an tell us about our 'secret menu' when we said there wasnt one she insisted there was. some guy wouldnt even say brulee and just spelled it. i also had someone ask if we had 'cool whip' oh, and some guy tried to come thru drive and order 12 hamburgers. he didnt speak english and we ended up giving him 12 sausage sandwiches. Also, i hate it when people cant say sandwich. they say the sausage muffin! or egg and cheese muffin. or the bacon breakfast! im sorry but i thought that two pieces of bread with stuff in between has always been called a SANDWICH.Posted 1 year ago # -
i forgot, the other day some guy came in and was very confused by the concept of iced coffee. after it took three people to explain the difference between espresso: very concentrated, strong coffe with a lot of caffeine and regular drip coffee. he then said 'all i want is something cold, with a lot of caffiene. so i told him id make him an iced coffee with a few extra shots of esp. explaining how we brew our iced coffee at double strength so its very strong. i asked if he wanted any cream or sweetener. umm yea, some nonfat milk please. any sweetener? yea i want it sweet. okay so i put the CL and nonfat in an set the cup on the bar for shots. him: so the iced coffee isnt already mixed with milk and sugar? Me: uh, no we brew it black and that way we can put whatever everyone wants in it because everyone wants something diff. him: and whats the diff between iced coffee and hot coffee? me: uh, well we brew it the same as the hot coffee but we serve it iced. him: and why is it iced coffee? me: (holding back laughter and a headslap) because we put ice in it and keep it in the fridge so we can serve it cold. come on really?! he was a very nice sweet guy but a total moron!!

The other day a customer spent about ten minutes arguing with me and two other partners in succession because she wanted a "cappuccino with no milk," and despite all three of us explaining to her that all she needed to do was ask for two shots of espresso, she insisted that she was "keeping it simple for our sake" by ordering a "cappuccino with no milk."
Like, I swear to God she was trolling us. It was absurd.

@Cloverrated: Charge her for the cappuccino, but serve her a doppio. Now the troll has been trolled.

I remember seeing once about how someone had ordered a Grande Breve. And finally that happened at my store. During a rush, this lady came in and she was like "Let me get a Venti SFV Breve" and me and my partner are like.... Breve what? and she goes "Just a breve!" so my partner asks "Do you want just steamed milk or a latte?" and she stupidly looked around and asked for a latte then went back to texting.

We had a guy come in the other day and he had a drink written down on a piece of paper. I'm guessing someone else wrote it down because he ordered a coffee for himself and then ordered the other drink exactly as it was written... caramel makalato. And I saw it written down first and was trying not to laugh and then he repeated it and I had to try really hard to just keep a straight face.
Then we have the lady who orders a "nonfat cinnamon chai" every morning. She wants chai with cinnamon dolce but refuses to actually say that and god forbid the partner taking her order does not recognize it, she will flip a s*** on them and start yelling "nonfat cinnamon chai" over and over instead of just saying she would like a nonfat chai with cinnamon dolce. She knows it's cinnamon dolce not cinnamon powder because some newer partners have asked her to clarify by asking which one of those two things it is and she'll say cinnamon dolce... but when it comes to ordering some part of her brain keeps her from saying it right.Posted 1 year ago #
