Y helo thar, stupid customers.
Some gems from the past couple of weeks:
1. "What's the price of a large drink?"
"What kind of drink are you looking for?"
*sigh* "A. Large. Drink."
"...We have all those drinks on the menu. What kind of drink are you looking for?"
2. "Do you have any frappuccinos?" (My perennial favorite.)
3. "Can I have a caffe vanilla frappuccino but with caramel instead of vanilla?"
"So, you'd like a caramel frappuccino?"
"No. A caffe vanilla with caramel instead of vanilla."
"Do you want the coffee flavor?"
"Yes."
"That would be a caramel frappuccino."
"It would be a caffe vanilla with caramel instead of vanilla?"
"...Yes."
"Oh, ok."
4. "Do you have [insert some really random and obscure kids' book here]?" (Because asking a cafe server in the middle of a rush makes perfect sense. And don't give me a look when I point you to customer service.)
I have more, but I need to go to work. Again. Gah. The cafe lead is thinking of leaving for another job, and we don't even have another cafe manager yet. KILL ME NOW.
