Yea, this is bullshit. I also work at Starbucks and its a fucking nightmare. I realize they're paying money for a product I'm serving them, but I've been working as a barista (I've only been at Sbucks for about 2 months - have worked at other independent places for over 5 years,) and literally NOWHERE else has customers as bad as that place does.

Drink nazis? Fine. Coffee snobs? Totally fine - I can be one myself. But someone flipping their shit because I put eight instead of NINE SPLENDAS in your Venti fuckaccino on TOP of the "sugar free caramel syrup" and half and half instead of milk no foam extra hot, extra whip, but with soy milk is fucking bullshit. That place is a disaster. Never have I had less faith in the human race than I do now, after working at a Starbucks for two months.

There is a massive difference between demanding a product you're paying for and being an unreasonable, spoiled consumer in an environment where the consumer is given unlimited control so the producer can make more money.

Oh, and yea. Make sure you go through the drive through to get your venti java chip frappucino every day, you disgusting, lazy, people.

/working at starbucks rant.

Edit: Also, if "just get another job" was an actual option (from the college grad two degree holder, internship finisher like myself,) we wouldn't be baristas and waiters. just fyi. cuz i don't looooove making coffee. not enough to get a measly $350 paycheck every two weeks.
