Well excuse me for not saying 'Venti'!

People that work at Starbucks are snotty. In downtown LA this morning, I went to get a coffe. The twit girl with two nose rings and sixteen tatoo's asked me what I wanted. I said 'One large coffee please'. She looked at me and said 'Oh, you mean a'Venti'.......... In my best Thurston Howell the III voice, I said 'Excuse me, a Venti please'.....She gave me that valley girl sigh and poured my coffee. While handing it to me, she turned the jar in my direction that read TIPS. Sorry, I just wanted to b!tch slap her!

Whats with these employees?

 

I don't have a tip jar on my desk! What is up with these companies allowing their staff to put out a tip jar? These jars piss me off.

 

know what you mean, I REFUSE to say 'venti'. the Sarge orders a large friggin' coffee and hold the attitude!!

 

Pete,

You should have said, "here's your tip, don't play with matches, stay in school, and be nice to your customers" and walk away.

 

LOL, cheap bastards...


Obviously you guys have never had an employment obligation where you had to put up with people's silly Thurston Howell impressions...

 

OMG...! That statement, coupled with the name in your profile, just made me lose it...! LMAO...!!!

 

What!?! She DESERVES your tip money! Not only did she educate you, she poured you a coffee!

J/k. They are snotty here too (Detroit). I had a similar expirience. Except, I said "big coffee"

 

Probably NSFW

Peter, you'll get a kick out of this, Solipsist posted these a while back...

OO-RAH!!

 

ROTFLMAO!!!

 

I laughed as soon as I saw the title. I used to go to starbucks every day before work for coffee and I refused to ever use their names for sizes. If I want a "big coffee", that's what I'm asking for.

 

The world is so g**d**n F**ked up it P**ses the s**t out of me.

The little motherf**kers that pull that g**d**n "I more sophisticated than you"bulls**t on you deserve to be saddled with a huge national debt when we are dead.

 

uh Uro.......Try decalf. It's just as tasty as regular coffee

 

12 cylinders of therapy and an open Carolina road oughta do it!

 

theyre just bitter that they werent cool in highschool...

 

Dang!


That would take my VFR, TransAlp, Civic, lawn mower and powerwasher.

Fantastic!!!

And btw, is venti supposed to stand for 20 in Italian, like 20oz?

If it is, that is just gay.

 

But i bet you $20 you will go right back to some Starbucks within the next 7 days and once again buy their utter crap. So quit your *****ing!

Ok, now that i got that off my chest, Star-upchucks is one of the sh_tties cups of brown garbage sewer water you could buy. It is, like, LA dude. Like, fer sure fer sure there is a proper place that, like, ya know, serves a great cup of espresso/coffee SOMEWHERE. As a very serious espresso/cappuccino drinker (like being an audiophile), there is no way in hell i'd drink Star-upchuck coffee.

But hey, you got what you paid for.

Like Bose...

(Nomex suit not needed for this post, you got EXACTLY what Starbucks is about and odds are you will go back there like a sheep to slaughter)

 

I avoid Starbucks and go to The Coffee Bean!

 

I am too stupid to order ar Starbucks. I don't speak the language.
Oh, and at the risk of needing Capt Obvious, their coffee suks, Dunkin Donuts is better.

 

There are two stores I try very hard to avoid on principle.
Starbucks and Walmart.

I do real well at staying away from Walmart.
When traveling, I sometimes use the airport Starbucks. Choices are limited and a man needs caffeine.

I went to the one in The Farmer's Market last time I was out there. Good stuff.

 

agree, never understood people's fervence for Bose....but audio is (up to a point) pretty subjective...

 

Dass rite!
