Goodbye Burlington
So, that was my last day at the Burlington Marketplace Starbucks right there.
I shall commemorate this occasion with a pop quiz. What are two traits that all of the following behaviors have in common?
- Rolling your eyes when told that something is out of stock
- Hanging up on someone when they go to check on the thing you just asked them
- Queuing a large order, then going out to your car to get your money
- Being on your cell phone, saying "Hold on a second," saying your rapid-fire, complicated order once, then resuming your god damned phone conversation before your order is rung up
- Paying for an order under $10 with a 50 or 100 dollar bill
- Asking for a discount on an item because of a flaw that you perceive as discount-worthy
- Imposing a (one-sided) conversation on a cashier when there is a line behind you
- Leaning on the glass divider to the bar and staring at the barista making your drink, interjecting instructions that you did not tell the cashier
- Making an 'ew' face when a drink is suggested to you by a barista
- They are rude. If you do these things on a regular basis, you need to call your mom and tell her she dropped the ball.
- They happened! In my store! Today!
That's it for me and the B1 Sbux. I will miss a lot of things about it: my coworkers. The Clover machine. The innumerable pretty girls who wander in. The inexplicable pink shirt fetish that the employees of the business park have.
But there are some things I will not miss. And to those things I bid a smiling adieu, one finger held aloft in silent tribute.
And to everything else, a fond farewell. Until about a month from now, when I'll be going to the open mic. :D
