Coffee shop employees unite and complain about ridiculous customers

In My Humble Opinion

Who’s you’re least favorite customer? What’s the most commonly asked stupid question? Do your customers even know what the hell they are ordering?

A few of my favorites…

  1. “I want a latte at 188 degrees”… dead serious.
  2. “Do you have to put foam on that cappucino?”
  3. “Oh, Could I have that iced instead of hot?” (This is said shortly after you finished making the drink hot.)
  4. Customer-“I just want a regular coffee”
    You- “What size?”
    Customer “Regular coffee”
    You- “What size?”
    Customer- “Regular coffee”
    etc, etc,

I can’t complain about coffee shops, considering I’ve never worked in one, but I have a doozy or two about people who really should not have pagers. For example…

Lady calls because her pager isn’t working.

“My pager isn’t working,” she says.

“Does it have a display?” I ask.

“No, nothing.”

“Do you have a fresh battery in the pager?”

LONG pause.

“You mean this thing needs batteries?”

I think the worst thing about this conversation was:

This customer worked for the IRS. I have never thought about my taxes in the same way since… shudder
