The ice maker made ice
More important updates
we are getting a new fridge
and... also we need to talk. about Starbucks.
there is one location I go that sucks literal ass. They always give me raspberry flavored drink somehow, even though I’ve tried ordering in 900 different ways, being as clear as possible about the ingredients, and even flat out saying, please put any kind of sugar in there as long as it isn’t raspberry please make sure there is no raspberry
and I’ve had it re-made after getting it once, to change it- to no raspberry, three times in one sitting. I’ve gone back, multiple times, to get it to not have raspberry.
and still- it has, raspberry.
As a barista I’ve tried to think about every single thing they could be doing wrong, and I’ve also considered this is some sort of sabotage or sick joke on someone’s part.
regardless, not cool.
I decided today to go to a different location
(the original one I always went to because I used to live by it, the people know me there)
and my shit was made *so correctly* it was REDICULOUS it puts the other place to SHAME
seriously what the hell. Lol
the bad location would make it so inconsistently like, never enough soy never enough sweetener or too much soy and not enough sweetener or just tasted watered down and too bitter or not enough ice and then the mixture wasn’t even mixed and shit like land sometimes they didn’t even have tops and straws to give me like
ah! Lol what the fuck man
it’s like, a very simple thing to make too XD it’s the easiest thing on the menu it’s just an iced coffee with soy milk And classic XD
I don’t understand why that’s so hard dawg I really don’t!!!
Anyways the other location got the nail on the head the first shot man... and I didn’t even have to say “with sweetener”
they just made it correctly like... how crazy is that
and zero raspberry not even a hint of it
Like, I wanna do a survey of the other location and find out how many people are getting raspberry drinks, I think whoever is responsible for filling the sweeteners is not washing the containers properly- or they’re mixing up the pumps or something???
I have no idea
I’m trying to think like should I tell management at this point?
it’s like blatantly tastes like medicine it’s really bad. Nauseatingly bad.
I don’t get it lol
Yeah so basically the ice maker wasn’t working too well in our old fridge
No one cared enough to fix it and so I just bought an ice maker off amazon
and then finally the fridge broke completely. We had a repair guy come look at it but he said it was basically toast.
So they’re just getting a new one
Another important life update is my hair grew out a lot over this quarantine
Which I am glad because at this rate I don’t have to get extensions anymore. My natural hair has a lot more volume than the extensions as well and a natural like... Slight curly ness To it that looks nicer than uh, the fake hair
like it just sits nicer on my head and frames my face and stature better than two sticks of hair pasted on going straight down
lol
and yeah they originally thinned my hair to help the extensions blend but I learned I actually hated that and will never thin my hair again so
I’m glad it’s growing back inches of thick hair to replace the ugly thinner look
tbh it looks better natural that it ever has with any hair stylist touching it IMO so I’m just not even going to let anyone touch it anymore
they always want to thin it and I’m like no sweetie- more volume not less.
I like a lot of volume and length
and of course for it to be healthy
I’m glad I didn’t go through with keratin treating it
I thought that it like was just ugly hair that needed to be permanently straightened but
i look plain and boring with straight hair
it turns out the hair doesn’t look bad naturally it was the way it was cut and thinned that looked bad naturally
so I was like frustrated with how it looked for the longest time
now that it’s grown out and is 100% back to its natural self it looks so much better and I’m happier with it
this is just what I’m used to my head looking like and like it falls the way it’s supposed to and doesn’t get in my face and stuff
before it was just an annoying mess to deal with so I always wore itback
but naturally untouched it is the kind of hair I can just push back with my fingers and it stays that way
that’s what I’m used to and I like it better
I also never put any heat on my hair and I don’t brush it when it’s wet or towel dry it
the only thing I did for it that was bad was I wore it up a lot so imma try to stop doing that
healthy hair 2020 guys. Take ur vitamins.

You've complained before that certain locations always make your drink wrong and I have a theory that you go full Karen when you go there so they intentionally sabotage your drink every time now, hoping you will stop coming in.
