Emo High School Register Guy: Hey, can I take your order?
Me: yeah, I would like a grande toffee nut latte with skim milk and whipped cream
Emo High School Register Guy: anything else?
Me: no
Emo High School Register Guy: That will be (insert overpriced coffee price here). I need a toffee nut latte with skim milk and whipped cream
Bitchy looking starbucks employee: a what? (laughing)
Emo High School Register Guy: did I say it wrong?
*** 5 minute conversation between register guy, bitchy girl and making the coffee guy about the right way to tell them the order ***
Me: (giving him my credit card, feigning sympathy) I used to work at a coffee shop, it takes a while before you get the hang of it.
Emo High School Register Guy: ok.
Making the Coffee Guy: Cappuccino Breve! (in the background)
Me: (waiting at drink counter) ...
...
Making the Coffee Guy: That's your drink.
Me: I thought you said that was a cappuccino breve
Making the Coffee Guy: I lied
Me: You lied?
Making the Coffee Guy: Yeah, I lied.
Me: (sarcastic inner monologue) He's so witty, I need to go blog about this...

PS - Is it just me, or does the word Awkward look well... awkward? Too many "w"s and "k"s.
PPS - the first time I typed xoxo, my fingers were in the wrong place and I wrote coco, which was almost better, but didn't make sense to anybody else, but now that you have the background...
coco, Farrah

how amazing is this story?!!! I went to starbucks yesterday and got tea. sometimes when i get tea at starbucks i think they are secretly laughing at me and thinking "doesn't she know this is a coffee shop?" I do know it's a coffee shop. I just really like the tazo white tea they have there and ive been too lazy to buy it at the store instead of at starbucks.
also once when i was getting a hot coco i asked for no lid and they wouldn't allow it because they said i would sue. i said, "fuck you i just don't want my whipped cream to melt."
you should sue them anyway for "bad whipped cream policy"
