To the gentleman who kindly let me know I took far too long to make his double cappuccino at a certain bustling coffee shop this morning: Thank you so much for your “constructive criticism”. I am so very sorry 8 people happened to walk in and order espresso drinks before you got your turn…oh wait…no I’m not, because planet earth revolves around the sun, not your all-important fucking schedule. Sure, your reaction would have been justified if my pace was hindered on account of me texting a friend, sipping my own cappuccino, standing around with my thumb up my ass, or any combination of those activities, but the fact remains that I was working as efficiently as I possibly could to get the orders processed and get everyone one their way.

So just for future reference, we do in fact operate on a first come, first serve basis, JUST LIKE EVERYWHERE ELSE ON THE FUCKING PLANET and if you don’t have time to wait, then go somewhere else or try making your own goddamn espresso at home. —Speedy Gonzales

  1. But if I don’t get my venti, double-shot hazelnut , low foam, skinny latte in 30 seconds, the terrorists will have won.

  2. i fucking hate people like this. Some people are so sure they shat the sun and moon that the suggestion that they’re not the center of the universe is completely horrific to them. Spoiled child in the body of a 40 year old fool. Such a waste of precious resources..

    The one consolation that you can take from this is that if this asshole reads this bitch, he’ll know it’s about him (because, after all, it’s ALL about him, right?)

  3. If you actually worked at a coffee shop you should know how to spell Espresso. Its not Nespresso. *Hint* I spelled it right in this post.

  4. What a dick. The worst is that it’s hard to respond to people like this the way they deserve – without endangering one’s job. It’s sad that such a large part of working in places like coffee shops is eating the proverbial shit of asshole customers…

  5. Rule numero uno with regards to restaurant/cafe/bar/deli customer etiquette: Never, EVER arbitrarily piss off, annoy, pester or otherwise get on the bad side of anyone who prepares or handles your food. EVER. Lest you unknowingly ingest that which is horked-up from their chest. (a.k.a. the Golden Loogie) Blech!

  6. People and their fucking coffee, jesus. I function just fine in the morning without it. I hope you all realize your coffee breath is just as foul as cigarette smoke and double double’s can slowly kill you, or turn you into an caffeine dependent spaz. This bitch is proof.

    I could never work at a coffee shop, some jerk like that would get his face scalded with his frickin frappucino.

  7. I just said that. *Looks around bewildered* Didn’t I just say that? Helloooooo? *tap tap* Is this thing on? 😛

  8. Hah, sorry Avast. I was just so enraged with that person’s stupidity, I didn’t read it before I posted :D!

  9. lol…no worries Mel. Twas all in fun, my dear!
    And beware of that tommyjules fella. *gives suspicious glare in tommy’s direction* “Wanna wrap my knuckles or SOMETHING?” Uh-huh. Yeah. Wrap his SOMETHING! I BET that’s what he wants. lol 😛

  10. Nespresso … what a fecking stupid name …then again … Donk isn’t much better … but I’m not trying to sell myself … ugh

    Le shrug.

  11. i love your name, it’s so versatile…donkaloo, donkey, donkster, donkalicious. okay, i stop now

  12. I hate it when people order specialty drinks ahead of me when I’m waiting to pay for a black coffee .. absolutely hate it.

    People who order 10 specialty drinks for their co-workers at small cafes during lunch time should have to wait for me. Seriously, guys.

  13. Is there any story behind the Donk name? Cuz where I come from a donk is nice, round, firm but not too firm, larger than average woman’s rear end, derived from the term Ba-donk-a-donk.

    Example: “Man, I seen Nicole the other day, haven’t seen her in a few years, she used to be shaped like a diving board but now the girl got a donk on her!”

    Thus concludes prof. TJ902’s lesson in slanguage for the day.

  14. I am so behind in netspeak. Nespresso? Donk? Ba-donk?

    You should have said “Jesus? Is it YOU? Why are you dressing like such a clitface? Testing my patience?”

  15. I hate it when some computer nerd invents a new word that isnt in the dictionary. I think it is redonkulous.

  16. *Singing at the top of his lungs*
    Hey! Ho! And away we go,
    Donkey riding, Donkey riding
    Hey! Ho! And away we go,
    Riding on a Don-keyyyyyyy!

    😛
