If He Continues He’s Likely To Lose Another 21 Grams

(I am used to this very specific customer’s order by now.)

Me: “Hello! Can I take your order, sir?”

Customer: “I will have a half-decaf, extra-large, one pump of sugar-free vanilla, nonfat, 180-degrees, 235-gram cappuccino. And a scone.”

Me: “Here you go, sir. Half-decaf, extra-large, one pump sugar-free vanilla, nonfat, 180-degrees, 235-gram cappuccino.”

Customer: “Weigh it.”

Me: “I did weigh it, sir.”

Customer: “Again.”

(I weigh it again. The scale comes out to 236 grams, because it measures in units of 2.)

Customer: “It’s over. Remake it.”

Me: “I’m sorry?”

Customer: “Remake it! And I want a free drink for you wasting my time!”

(The drink is remade three more times. Once for being two degrees off, and once for being one gram less. The manager then has to explain that the scale measures in units of 2.)

Me: “Here’s your drink, sir.”

Customer: “Finally! It’s amazing you all don’t get fired for incompetence!”

(The customer then goes and adds cold milk at the bar.)
