I think my personal favorite is "Do you serve coffee here?" My co-worker looked at one girl that said that one day and just said "No, I'm sorry, we don't" and the girl walked away. And this entire post cracked me up and made my day.
i always laugh when people look at the word organic and say " oh gross i don't want that" ... lol i never know what to say.. I don't understand what they think it is. Usually i just tell them it simply means there are no additives and preservatives, And their response is usually something like " oh really, thats all ?
Does any one else get this ? Or is it just where i live? lol
Wow, I think I've had so many funny and weird shop stories I've forgotten most.
Hmm...
There is this one older couple that comes through our drive window about once a month or so, and they have these 2 small adorable dogs. The first time I waited on them, they got drinks and a scone. I asked if they wanted the scone warmed, and they said only a little. I then asked if their dogs could each have a dog treat (we have lots of dogs come through the window.) They looked at me like I was off my rocker and said no, thats what the scone was for and why they want it warmed only a little. I didn't know if they were joking, but sure enough when the drinks were handed out the dogs were already half done with their scone.
This was over a year ago, and each time they come through, the dogs get their fav scone and their human parents are always overjoyed to watch them eat it.
There are so many other exchanges ... if I think of any more that are worth noting I'll post again.
Cherie
Jared Rutledge said:had a guy come into a shop i was working at a couple months back, big redneck dude, and asked me to change the music station cause he "wasn't in the mood for jazz." i thought that was pretty strange. i didn't change it, if miles davis offends you, you can leave.
Not sure how this is funny, but it does showcase your efforts to reinforce the stereotype of the rude, arrogant, barista. Did you just ignore him, or actually insult him to his face? Good job.
