Starbucks

Does anyone here currently work or ever worked at a Starbucks? I worked there for two years. Man, a lot of crazy stuff went down. I was hit on by gay men, straight men, older women, younger women (I'm not complaining about that one)... I remember having some of the most insane customers who would come in every day.
There was this one guy in particular... probably in his 70's but full of wizz and vinegar - he hated this bisexual guy that worked with us and would always come up with the funniest things to say... like "hey Sally, how's the makeup training going?" Or "Saving up for a Gucci bag?" I loved it. And he got away with it every time.
Anyone else have sbux stories?

dude... are you doing your best CFR impersination???
i never worked at one but i supervised one... i managed a grocery store that had one in it... the grocery store owned the starbucks but we still had to be governed by starbucks corp... when the starbucks people would come in they were pompous and arrogant and thought they owned the entire store... they didnt want any type of display within 6' of the kiosk... i would tell them i would get right on moving our displays laugh and walk off...

Yeah, there's definitely some arrogant people that work at sbux. I was never promoted in the two years that I worked there, and it was because I was openly Christian. I was in the severe minority, as pretty much all my coworkers were either homosexual or buddhist/whatever the religious trend was for that week.

You may not realize this, but if a "straight" man hits on you, he is gay.......

I hate Starbucks now....Ever since their jerk owner (Schultz) sold my once beloved Seattle SuperSonics knowing that the new owner was going to move them to Oklahoma City....I refuse to buy anything associated with Starbucks....
Starbucks sucks....That's my Starbucks story.

KIVA Juice is as bad as well.....7 dollars for juice.......those oranges better be squeezed by female pectoral muscles right before my eyes to charge that much.

That's a good one. So you're straight, but don't you hit on other gay men? What does that ACTUALLY make you?

It is. Just because you played Jake Gillenhaul's (SP?) Stunt double during the "action" scenes.

Piercing not so much, but education probably. Didn't you know you need a studio art major it make it at a coffee shop?

I just would like to point out, their normal coffee is above average, and strong. You might could say, straight guys only order coffee at starbucks.

Not a story... just pronouncing my love.
I have starbucks Christmas tree ornaments :)
The only thing I will get there is a Latte and a Mocha. I really don't like their coffees on tap because they always taste bitter.
