How I Spent my Day Before 4pm
I spent much of the day tryin to learn how to work the drive thru register at Starbucks. It's crazy cuz there are so many buttons to represent every possible type of drink and an infinite variations of beverages. Basically, if you are a Starbucks customer, it don't matter what it says on the menu cuz you can combine whatever ingredients you want and then leave the cat at the register stuck tryin to figure out how to put together what it is you requested.
I just dunno how to memorize the location of all these buttons. I know they're somewhere on the screen. They gotta be cuz this is Starbucks and it is all a system. Everything's supposed to work like a well oiled machine and if one of them buttons representing a drink variation wasn't there, the machine would crash. It would be chaos at Starbucks.

nah not that k-os, I said chaos
So there I am, tryin to find all these stupid buttons that say things like No Fat or Soy or 2% or Half Sugar and I swear, I can be lookin right at the particular button I need but my eyes don't see it for some reason. I just glance right over it. It doesn't help that in my headphones I can hear the driver getting more and more impatient. This only makes me more nervous and of course the more nervous I get the tougher it is to concentrate.
I'm sorry I don't know how to type in three shots of caramel, but you're world is not gonna end. Not only is your world gonna be ok, you're still gonna get your caramel. Their are plenty of people working with me who know how to add the caramel. Has Starbucks ever let ya down in the past? Of course not, we serve perfect drinks. If for some reason it has let ya down then why are you back for more, do you want your whole life to be one let down after another? If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all and find a Tully's.
