PERSONAL FAVOURITE GAMES: Mass Effect Trilogy

Never before have so many come together from all quarters of the galaxy. But never before have we faced an enemy such as this. The Reapers will show us no mercy; we must give them no quarter. They will terrorize our populations; we must stand fast in the face of that terror. They will advance until our last city falls, but we will not fall. We will prevail. Each of us will be defined by our actions in the coming battle. Stand fast. Stand strong. Stand together. Hackett out.~ Admiral Steven Hackett

OH MY GOD I NEED THIS

I need this because of reasons. Very obvious reasons.

All right, I'm done.

Back to this blog’s regularly schedule Mass Effect feels. At least until I find a new obsession…which is not likely to happen until ME gives me back my soul.

me: How are you today?...

Sat, 18 May 2013 01:03:53 -0400

sbxproblems:

customer: “tall latte”

me:

*it hurts ya know*

Turn that around for a second. I would rather have my “how are you?” ignored than receive a “how are you?” followed IMMEDIATELY by their order. Like, if you’re not going to give me the two seconds to say “I’m great” THEN DON’T BOTHER OBSERVING THE PLEASANTRY PLEASE!

what size? WHAT SIZE?!?!?!!?!?

Sat, 18 May 2013 01:00:42 -0400

sbxproblems:

customer: mocha frappuccino

me: what size?

customer: Mo-cha FRAPP-ooooo-CHINO

me: WHAT SIZE!!

I do not understand this phenomenon of not specifying your desired size. I’d say that like, 7 our of 10 customers don’t tell me what size they want without me asking for it. Like, how is that not the first word of your order out of your mouth???

no seriously...you don't need extra caramel in your caramel ribbon crunch frappuccino

sbxproblems:

omg, seriously?? I thought that was the problem that god awful drink was created to address. THERE ARE FOUR KINDS OF CARAMEL IN THAT FUCKER ALREADY!

To-go is hilarious

extracaramelextragofuckyourself:

Customer: “And that’s to-go.”

Me: “OK.”

Customer: “No you didn’t hear me, I said ‘it’s to-go.”

Me: “OK Ma’am, I heard you”

Customer: “No, you were supposed to laugh, it was funny.”

Me: “Was it? Sure thing. Hah.”

If you have to tell someone you’re funny, you aren’t.

I’ve never had someone say it as a joke…sadly. It would make more sense that way. I have people legit order their shit to go. Every single time I barely resist the urge to say either “duh” or “that is our default setting.”

Your Barista Probably Hates You: Our Actual Secret Menu

Your Barista Probably Hates You: Our Actual Secret Menu:

yourbaristaprobablyhatesyou:

Y’all ready for this shit?

So Starbucks does actually have a “secret” menu. We don’t call it that, of course, but there are drinks we are trained on that won’t show up on our menus. And I don’t mean ridiculous flavor combinations you might end up putting into a frappuccino or latte anyway but…

This must be regional. Blended strawberry lemonade is on my menu and is fucking delicious. Double shots recently returned to my menu and I can never remember how many shots they get. Smoothies….FUCK SMOOTHIES!!! (although I drink one. I feel bad about it.) You think Fraps suck???? Make a fucking smoothie!

Someone orders an "iced hot chocolate" but refuses a chocolate milk

yourbaristaprobablyhatesyou:

No shit. This really happens. Pretty regularly.

Go ahead, lose your faith in humanity. It’ll be ok.

Chick the other day order on behalf of her friend an iced grande upside down extra foamy breve latte. I asked her if she meant iced cappuccino (which I don’t fucking understand in the first place) and she said no. I’m pretty sure I just stared at her, and the cup for a full thirty seconds. I DON’T KNOW HOW TO MAKE A FOAMY ICED LATTE!!!

Just discovered the Barista Problems tag.

Fri, 17 May 2013 23:38:36 -0400

I’m sorry guys, the flood is coming. I can’t help it. I just hate my job and unless you Tumblr Savior the shit out of this tag, you’re about to find out why.

Half of a Splenda

extracaramelextragofuckyourself:

Because a whole one is too much?

Omg, how about a third of a pump of mocha. Are you shitting me with this right now? I’ll give you your fucking half a pump but a third? Fuck no.

forever-classyx:

Oh my gosh people, be nice to your waiter/waitress, it’s not their fault that your food is cold or if it’s under cooked. Be nice to the cashiers who are still training and can’t ring up your items as quickly as you want. If a stranger smiles and says hello to you, smile and say hello back! It’s just common courtesy, I don’t understand why people have to be so rude.

AMEN

And get off your fucking phone by the time you get to the register at Sbux. Seriously. Whoever you’re talking to doesn’t want to hear your order and I have a fuck ton of questions to ask about your drink in order to make it just right so hang the fuck up for three goddamn minutes.

I’m trying to be brave

But you’re listening to everything I say
And I’m trying not to give it all away
I like to keep my cards so close
You like to keep that console on
And all my broken parts
And all my forgettable false starts
You can have them right now
But you better not look away

You can have them right now
But you better not look away
This is me trying to be brave
