Bag blogger, bad!

I've been playing hooky!
Because we got digital cable and school is out.

I know, right? Finally decided to get with the 21st century.

Registered today for my next two rotations, peds and psyc.
Didn't get the peds spot I wanted but wound up in good hospitals, so the world won't end. One of the rotations for labor/delivery starts at 630am.
NOT. A. MORNING. PERSON. Eeek. This won't be fun. I will have to hide my Starbucks cup somewhere around the unit and intermittenly go sneak snips to STAY ALIVE.

Readers can assume my "---" means mini updates with no real coherent rhyme or reason. But things that need to be said. As you were..

My favorite Starbucks promoted a newbie to the bar and she made my drink PERFECTLY. Big smiles!! I said it tasted awesome, best in weeks!! She said, "When I was training I asked AwesomeManager who even order this drink and he said one of my favorite customers, so learn to make it right!" I'm a favorite customer! And I always tip, smile and if I need to make a comment, I try to be tactful... unless its that prick at the other location.

Speaking of the other location, the one closer to work... the little fuck the other day started in with me again with the milk questions.
Dude, it's a freaking americano. Not a latte. That means no milk.
He INSISTS on asking me everything and follows with "are you sure?!"
Is an iced americano really that bizarre??

So anyway.. this is what happened the last, and probably last ever, time I go there.

EasilyAmused: I'm curious do people order an americano then ask for milk?

StooopidBarista: Well like ya... they like are cheap asses (YES HE SAID IT) and dont want to pay for the milk so they ask for it at the end of the drink making..

EasilyAmused: Hmm.. well I know I've never done that. I just don't really like milk.

StooopidBarista: People like sometimes too order a quad espresso (translation: 4
shots served up neat) and then go add water in the bathroom. Cheap asses.

EasilyAmused: You know, that's their perogative. I get you are annoyed by it, but at least they are buying your espresso. I'm offended you call those customers cheap asses. They are still a customer. And last I checked, you are in business to make drinks and they are ordering drinks.

StooopidBarista: Well I mean they are like STEALING our water.

EasilyAmused: So the other night when I was studying and ordered a drink, then asked for a glass (not bottle) of water, did you turn around and accuse me of stealing?

StooopidBarista: **awkward stare**

Moral of story: Customer service should never be skimped on! Always treat and love your customers with respect.
