Coffee Novels

Published by kerriepeeves at 4:01 pm under Uncategorized Edit This

I’m trying to pick a harmless peeve today since it’s Christmas Eve and I don’t want to damper anyone’s mood.

 

So my peeve today is people who take about 23 words to order a coffee, like this:

 

I’ll have a tall non-fat, half-caf bold with 2 Splendas extra whipped cream 3 pumps of sugar-free vanilla syrup done at 160 degrees.

 

And then they get pissed if the poor order-taker doesn’t get it the first time.

 

Dear Sweet Baby Jesus!

 

Here’s how I order:  “Venti mocha.”  And they make it just like that.  I went to a place once that wanted me to make too many decisions (what kind of milk?  whipped cream or not?).  I didn’t go back.
