Flattered.

Usually when I'm making bar drinks for the cafe and drive-through at the same time during a rush, I like to keep my head low and try not to look at the angry customers who are more than likely looking at the time or tapping their feet impatiently. I know if I acknowledge they're there, they'll acknowledge how slow I am and that they've been waiting

Dude, did your LJ post app just put your street address down as your current location? Or something very close to it?

[zanaki]

Uuuh, yeah apparently it did. It didn't get the exact street address right though. Huh.

Aww! Yay for nice people. :)

Since working fast food ive always given management an extra min or two from the norm to get the food out. Its tough, practically thankless job sometimes.

Being that I own an espresso machine and often make myself a macchiato in the mornings, I greatly appreciate the speed and efficiency with which a barista in a coffee shop can make me delicious caffeine. :D

Making coffee can be an art and requires a little TLC if you want it to be good. If people think you're just pressing a button to fill a cup and they just want something caffeinated, fast, they can go to McDonald's and enjoy having their palette insulted.

I'm glad you got some props!

I always try to be nice to people in service industries. I don't get the mindset of entitlement and RUSHRUSHRUSH. We're all on this ball of mud together!
