Long Time No Post.
First post for months and it's a rant so if you're not interested in my hate then feel free to stop reading here.
First up, Holly (one of the girls at work) is dead meat. Matter of fact, so is Blake (one of the guys) but that is a different story for another day kiddies.
Every week, Holly phones in 'sick' at least one day a week. Which just so happens to be the busiest day of the week so I'm on my own. When I'm meant to be cook. Like today. Mother's day.
Busy and full of Dickwads. *hates on customers*
Just because I have my back to you, am making a drink for SOMEONE ELSE, saying "I won't be a moment" is NOT an invitation to give me your order. Do I look like I have a pen and paper ready to write it down?
Secondly, just because I'm making a drink, doesn't mean it's your's. Especially when you heard the person ahead of you order their drinks. DO NOT tell me "It's meant to be takeaway sweetheart." I KNOW IT'S TAKEAWAY! IT'S NOT YOUR ORDER!
Thirdly, our default coffee is a brewed bottomless coffee. I'm not a mind reader so when you ask for a 'coffee' DON'T get offended and look at me as if I'm stupid before asking "What? Don't you have Cappuccino?" If you want a freaking Cappuccino ASK for one! ALSO, if you get annoyed at me for explaining about our bottomless coffee don't huff at me before asking "Don't you do Espresso?" AND THEN HAVE NO IDEA WHAT SORT OF ESPRESSO COFFEE YOU WANT! I have better things to do than rattle off every type of Espresso we do before you choose the FIRST ONE I SAID!
Ohh no, I haven't finished yet...Cappuccinos and Flat Whites are made with milk there is no need to ask for them with milk! Also, don't ask for a Long/Short Black with milk or a Flat White without milk. It just makes me hate you more.
Also, You see me pour FRESH milk into the milk dispenser. Don't stand there watching and then ask for some fresh milk/non-powdered milk. If you can't see that I've opened a brand new bottle of milk, tipped it in in front of you then you do not deserve to talk to me. And how blind are you when you ask me how to work the milk dispenser/coffee machine? it clearly tells you in big letters 'PUSH'
Finally, if I've already told you there's a little wait because I'm the only one on today/we're a little short staffed/it is OBVIOUSLY busy then telling me to hurry up because you're in a hurry will only make me go slower. You're not a special case just because you think you're better than me/everyone else waiting for their drinks. I've told you there is a wait and you still put your order in. Stiff shit!
