"Que?"

So for my first blog post, I must say today went pretty well. I have found it rather entertaining to give random people decaf for no reason. I have found that i hate you customers that walk to the counter without the slightest idea of what you want, and you stare at the menu squinting you eyes and stuttering. Your an IDIOT, and your getting decaf for it. Tell me what the hell you want and go away so i can finish what i was doing. you spent the first 5 mins talking on the phone and the next 5 mins talking about nothing to me while i stare at you not caring at all. And as for you friken people that dont speak english, GO AWAY, i dont understand what your saying! I asked if you wanted whip cream and you did not have the slightest clue what i was talking about so you said you whole order again, then when i asked again with my fists on the counter, you were still confused. I believe this is America and the dominant language is english but i could be mistaken. Well that was my whole weeks story but its been a good week at work and i just laugh at you morons who have a caffeine addiction and cant order correctly, in which case you will almost definetly get decaf. !@#

Seriously?

What makes people think that if I have my back turned to them for a split second that it is ok to spit out their order? Okay so you want a venti mocha... now you have gotten yourself decaf because you are so rude. Also I have to count the numerous times a day people talk to me like I am stupid. News flash customers.... I work here and have been for a long time. I know what I am doing probably better than most people in free standing stores! Yes I heard you... yes I have ears and yes if course I will make your drink right. Trust me though if you even think to treat me or any of my coworkers like crap you will get decaf and I will serve it with a smile on my face. By the way all of you who come up on the phone and apologize to the people you are on the phone with, you will have us speak loudly so the person hears us! Apologize to them? No way guy with the little man complex! Finally, Mr. Man I do NOT want to see you eat your chicken wings at my kiosk because you made a "pit stop" all I have to say is nuff said!

don't get NO attitude with me.

Come up to the counter, and order your drink. Don't linger really close to the counter and hum and haw. Don't stand impatiently in line and then when it is your turn to order say, uh, I don't know, I haven't looked at the menu. What were you doing the whole time in line?! Don't come up to the counter and order your drink while talking on your cell phone and then apologize to the other person you are on the phone with. Don't ask me for an iced mocha and then when I make it for you say, oh, I wanted the blended one. Iced= ice cubes, you must say frappuccino= BLENDED. Big difference, don't waste our time becuase you don't know how to order your drink, especially when we ask, do you want it iced, or blended. If you ask me if a blended drink is hot, I will look at you like you are stupid, because you are. What the crap would I be blending that is hot? Unless you are like David and stick your hot chocolate in the blender to make it frothy. We also hate a select few from Team Ford and Ed Bozarth, stupid skanks. All of this will result in you getting decaf!!!

So working at the same place for so long you get to see a lot of people. Well I recognize most of them...then there are those that come in and are like " Hey how have you been? I haven't seen you in such a long time....ect" and start to blab on about something that has happen to me in the past. Problem is I have no clue as to who this person is. Well this happened today. So me being the nice Barista I am put on that fake smile and attitude agreed with everything they said and made that delicious cup of coffee for them. Other than that today was a decent day at ye ol' coffee shop!

First Post!

This is the kickoff of our Barista/EMT-I blog for Baristas and EMS personnel! Enjoy!
