fun stuff you hear only when you're a starbucks barista:
* CHRISTIE, you are the reason we come here everyday! YOU are what makes starbucks what it is, everytime we come here one of you employees make our day! and we want to thank you from the BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS!!! (this was said to me in the drive-thru speaker one night)
* What was your name again? oooh, Christie... i just want to tell you... Jesus loves you. (said to me one night in the drive through, by someone completely random. Keep in mind he was completely serious.)
* I want the weirdest drink you have!!! give me SOMETHING WEIRD! (sorry sir, you are already weird enough. go home.)
* Is a wet cappucino the same thing as a dry latte?! (why yes it is, you retard. you shouldnt be here. get a black drip coffee and go home.)
* THIS 220 DEGREE AMERICANO ISNT HOT ENOUGH! MAKE ME A NEW ONE! (Norm, (yes thats the guys name) open your mouth, do you actually HAVE a tongue? wtf.)
* Uhmmmm.... didnt i like, say, like, i wanted this... ICED? can you remakkkeeeee ittt??? (no. i repeated your drink back to you TWICE, you did not say iced! i'm going to pour this drink over your head now. bye.)
* I simply CANNOT drink a cappucino like this... [in a paper to-go cup] Its just.... I CANT DO IT. its supposed to be... in a... CERAMIC CUP, a big one, like a BOWL... I CANT DO THIS!!!! (but, maam, we dont have a venti for-here ceramic cup.) I DONT CARE!!! *GASP! CHOKE!* (somebody get this lady some oxygen! quick!)
* I love your hair! (ew, have you seen these roots? it looks horrible) I think its so funky and FUN!!! And it looks like you meant to have your roots like that! Like, so totally rockin it pamela anderson style!! (hah. hah. haha. thanks. did you mean i look like white trash then?)
AND TODAY... (i saved the best for last...)
* Has anyone ever told you that you look like LIZA MINELLI? (no but thank you i'll go kill myself now, thanks. She swore it was a compliment, because liza "is beautiful!" yeah... okay... right. at least michael jackson will still love me LOL.)
ah, starbucks. how i love and despise you all at once. people are so weird and random there, ive never seen anything like it in my life. each day i come home more amused and confused than i was the day before. everyone in this world has gone nuts. i swear. ive been compared to pamela anderson and liza minelli in one day. ive been blessed and praised and talked down to, and yelled at haha. Im confused. Do i love this job, or do i hate it?? at least its not boring. *shrug* And you can never beat free coffee. honestly. it keeps me sane lol.

i actually took this a month or so ago, but never posted it. Why? i dont know, because i really liked it for whatever reason.
ps- KYLE WHERE ARE YOU?!!? IM GONNA FUCKING KILL YOU WHEN YOU SHOW YOUR FACE AROUND HERE AGAIN, MOTHERFUCKER. :(
