Starbucks employees

Let me preface this by saying that I usually go to either Coffee People (local chain), or a local bookstore/coffee shop to satisfy my caffeine cravings. So anyway, we just finished a project at work, and my boss gives us all Starbucks gift cards. I go in there today and ask for my usual small double latte.

Chick behind counter: Can I get something started for you?
dainthomas: I'd like a small double latte.
Chick behind counter: Tall?
dainthomas: Huh?
Chick behind counter: Tall double latte?
dainthomas: SMALL double latte.
Chick behind counter: Tall is our smallest size.
dainthomas: Umm, OK then.

So why the hell, if she knew what I meant, could she not have just made me a friggin' small and left me in peace? I don't want a friggin' conversation, I just want my coffee. Does she really make enough to care? And why is Starbucks too cool to use the normal sizing system that 99% of the world uses?


Cliffs:

1. I want a small coffee.
2. Starbucks employee corrects me.
3. My non-caffeinated brain can't compute.
4. Starbucks names are stupid.
 
haha, just like the Tom Leykis subject yesterday about Starbucks having the SLOWEST service anywhere! You can't just go in and order something - you are forced to have a conversation.

And they have somehow made their coffee so women HAVE TO drink STARBUCKS. Can't be Coffee Bean, Tully's, McDonalds, etc, it has to be starbucks!

it was a great topic.

wow, did it really bug you THAT much that she just wanted to confirm with you about the cup size? Are you that insecure that you can't stand a little person-to-person conversation? I mean, after you got your coffe, did you think to yourself "Jeez why did she talk to me...I just want to be left alone. OH SNAP! I have something to post about on ATOT...a rant nonetheless! I can't wait!"

You = tool or douche bag...either fits you.
 
you think thats bad, i went into starbucks and tried to order a "Large Black COffee" and the dude said "we dont have black coffee"
 
Your fatass American culture caused the naming scheme screwup, don't blame Starbucks because fatty mcgee needs to cram 4 more ounces of liquid fat into is twisted joke of a body.

Who said I was worked up? 😕
 
I hate Starbuck's cup size names too, why can't they just use small, medium, large like everyone else?
