I probably scored higher than you did on standardized tests, am better-read, better-educated, a better writer...

    Anyway, it was very interesting to find out that I can still order a "short." Cool.

    I once got into a conversation about coffee with a lady while waiting to get on a plane to Seattle. I complained about how, no matter what State I was in or how I ordered I was always corrected by the shits that work at Starbigbucks.....turns out she worked at the head office.

    At one point she bent over to pick something up she conveniently dropped on the floor and her blouse opened up to reveal her naked chest. From her look when she brought her head up, I have no doubt she did it on purpose! She then walked off.....ughhhh, tease!

    I had the same look on my face as Buckwheat in my avatar.
    No matter where I've traveled or how great the trip was, it's always wonderful to return to my country, The United States of America......... me

    Eh, the whole employee-customer relationship is a 2-way street. I try to be as nice as I can possibly be, then joke about how much I hate certain customers on my day off.

    Just remember, for every crappy customer, there's also a crappy employee.

    Generally the author makes valid points - but that author is completely self-absorbed.
    “… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.

    This is why I have my own coffee maker with a bean grinder. Compared to Starfucks, that thing paid for itself in less than 2 weeks.
    If you're worth less than $5 million and you vote for McCain, you're a loser.

    I don't work behind a coffee counter, but even I think that the longer it takes you to order your coffee, the bigger jerk you are. Decent people drink it black.
