The Carbonation Connoisseur
We have a guy who comes through so often and causes the exact same problem every time that the moment his face appears on the drive-thru camera, we start prepping his order automatically.
His order is always the same: three large Fantas and one large Coke.
He pulls up to the speaker.
Customer: “Yeah, gimme three large Fantas and a large Coke.”
We already have them ready.
He pays, drives to the pickup window, and grabs the drinks. Then he does the thing he always does: he opens each one, tastes it, and frowns like he’s a professional soda sommelier.
Customer: “The syrup’s wrong.”
Every. Single. Time.
We take the drinks back, toss them, handle a couple of other orders, then hand him the backup set, the second batch we always prepare because we know what’s coming.
He taste-tests again, suddenly satisfied, and drives off.
It annoys the absolute s*** out of me every time.
