WOMAN REGRETS BEING RUDE TO STARBUCKS BARISTA

A Starbucks barista posted on the internet this note he received from a drive-thru customer: “Greetings Starbucks Barista! Yesterday at your drive-thru we had a less than cheerful encounter. At no fault of yours, you were out of carriers and said you could not take my empty cup. I was less than understanding and my manner was curt. I need to apologize. The thought of leaving a trail of unkindness like that is so not the path I want to reflect. Not for you, not for me. You are a young man clearly working hard to build a future and you should be commended. Keep up your attitude of cheer and hope. Stay hopeful no matter what kind of people cross your path (or drive thru). Surely, God has good blessing in store. You taught this old lady something about kindness, compassion and staying humble. I thank you! – Debbie.” She also enclosed a $50 bill.
* Fifty bucks! That’s, like, half a cup of Starbucks coffee.
* “My manner was curt.” Oh, I bet it was.
* Sorry, but 50 bucks sounds like she was a little more than curt.
* You’ve heard of Buyer’s Remorse? This is Jerk’s Remorse.
* She probably told him to make a venti frappuccino and shove it up his ass.
* Let’s just say the espresso wasn’t the only thing that was steamed that morning.
* “Stay hopeful no matter what kind of people cross your path”? She must not get out much.
* I didn’t follow her when she said the young man was working hard to build a future. I thought he had a barista job?
