What A Tangled Web We Weave
(A customer has already ordered, picked up, and drunk most of his drink. He then walks up to the counter, very angry.)
Me: “How can I help you?”
Customer: “What the f*** is this?!” *points to his cup*
Me: “It looks like the drink I made you, and you seem to have already enjoyed it.”
Customer: “No smart-a**, this!” *pours the drink onto the counter and a key bounces out* “What the f*** is going on here?!”
Me: *alarmed* “I am so sorry, sir! When I made the drink, I know there wasn’t a key in it. Let me make you a new one.”
Customer: “Yeah! You f****** better make me a new f****** drink. This is complete bull-s***! You’re lucky I don’t sue you and this coffee company!”
(I take the key and make him a new drink, and he goes and sits outside with his friends. The key isn’t mine, so I start asking coworkers and customers. No one is claiming it. The customer walks up about five minutes later, bright red and embarrassed.)
Customer: “Yeah, uh… I’m going to need my car key back so I can go home.”
