Coffee Card Club

Sometimes I hate working in the morning.

We have one of those coffee clubs, where you buy 9 cups of coffee or so and get the 10th one free. Well we have those cards that people can get stamped.

Sometimes people take fucking forever to pull them out of their purse or wallet.

I don't know how many times I've said "I can just give you another one", but it's "Oh no, that's okay, I'll find it eventually."

Well I don't have until eventually, especially when there are angry customers waiting behind you!

Sometimes I want to take the coffee card stamper and start stamping all their clothes and money. Stamping away while telling them to hurry the fuck up.

I think it's time for my nap. Today just wasn't a good day with all those coffee people pissing me off.

  1. It's like my job. I ask for their card then they look for years and don't have it. I ask for their name and they rudely start rattling off their phone # or address. Or they mumble it so I can't hear. Drives me crazy!

  2. "Eventually, you will find your card. While you search, other customers will eventually get really super-pissed and start crowding around you, demanding that you hurry the hell up so they can pay and get out."

  3. This bugs the shit out of me too! It's not like it's a god damn secret that they're buying coffee - Why not get it out BEFORE you get to the front of the line? The same thing would happen when I worked at Dunkin' Donuts with people not having their cash or credit card out. What, were you going to use The Force to pay me?

  4. I think this is a total hatred for cashiers the world over, whether we're ringing up sandwiches, coffee, donuts, or what have you! =) I stand by my conviction that EVERY SINGLE PERSON IN THE WORLD should have to work as a waitress/server, a cashier in a grocery store AND convenience store, and in some type of customer service retail job before they're allowed to go to college and get "a real job". You can bet your ass that this whole "I'm the customer, so I deserve your respect without giving any in return" BULLSHIT would come to a screeching motherfucking halt. Seriously.
