Starbucks again

I don't know anything about La Cañada. Is it some kinda white enclave or what? I mean, isn't LA overwhelmingly Hispanic anymore? WTF....I mean, if it was Missouri or something. I wonder if they write out other ethnicities??? Because it seems like a non-Hispanic would be more noteworthy than opposite.

yeah the location is kinda important.
I been drove there, La Canada Flintridge. It's a "nice place". In my eyes, the kinda of the Walnut Creeks or Menlo Parks, IMO.

Yeah sure it's kinda obvious to me "nice places" attract lots of Caucasian peoples. And yes I'd have said LA is hecka latino to begin with. But this far-suburb is not exactly "in LA" .

And finally this story might be the work of yet another 15-17 y/o "joking" jerk working behind the counter... so... :dunno I think may be small BS.
 
Starbucks employee base is screwing the pooch.
 
You gotta put your name in as Fah-Q so you can cackle wildly as you grab the coffee and hustle out the door when they call it out.
 
I've heard Mexicans calling each other beaner or wetback in jest. But that doesn't give anyone else permission to do it. Same with calling an Italian a dago or guido. If you're not Italian, or good friends with the one you're saying it to, then STFU unless you enjoy getting your ass kicked.

My impression was that if you ordered in person you got a hand written name, if you order using the app you enter a name and it's printed on the label. Maybe things have changed though.

That's what I thought
 
Only ever noticed my name written on the cup with a black sharpie.
I've never done the preordered app thing, c'mon half the experience is standing there in line shooting the breeze with a stranger.

Exactly. Call 'em wops out of respect.
 
it's so cal. any area with altitude is more valuable.

hills, heights, etc.

la canada is just below angeles crest.
 
So, Starbucks has a shitty employee, that's not nearly as bad as having a shitty manager, the latter means that the person has been there for awhile and was promoted.

Out of 8,000 locations, there are sure to be a few assholes.

Not even close to what it means.
 
Guess Starbucks shouldn’t wait till May 29 for their sensitivity training, as the result of the last incident.

You mean when you had to go do something away from the house because you wanted to get high and your parents would shit bricks if they found out what you wanted to do was get high? Good times: Meatballs, Police Acadamy, Caddyshack, Ghostbusters....
 
Two things about the names on starbucks cups:

1. I have a large collection of pictures of how they butcher my name on a regular basis. It's fully enjoyable to me. One of my greatest is Parado, Perverto and Burrito.

2. It's loud behind the register. They really can't hear what name you're giving them if it's something uncommon.

I’ve been asked if Fred is my real name or just a name I give so nobody else takes my coffee. :laughing
