rant

things customers do that really fucking frustrate me and make me want to stab them in the glabella.

1. pointing to a raspberry muffin with RED berries in it and asking 'is that a blueberry muffin?' ...why yes, yes it is...-.-
2. me standing at till: "Hi how can i help you?" customer: "thanks, i'm just looking" customer proceeds to walk to OTHER, UNMANNED till to wait to be served. me:  FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFSSSSSSSSSSSSS
3. customers who stand at the till reading the menu, thus preventing me from serving the seven thousand other people waiting behind them, READY to order.
4. customers who  expect me to take their order while they have a conversation with their friend,  and then shoot me annoyed looks when i try to ask them questions in order to complete their order.
5. customers who order "a coffee" .... LATTE? CAPPUCCINO? FLAT WHITE? i swear the next fuckwit who does this is getting a handful of raw coffee beans.
6. customers who place vague orders, and then get frustrated when you try to clarify. e.g. 'i'll have eggs on toast and a coffee'
me: 'which bread would you like? scrambled, fried or poached eggs? which kind of coffee was that? would you like that in a mug or a cup?'
customer: *death stares*
EXCUSE ME FOR NOT BEING PSYCHIC
7. customers who ignore your pleasant greeting of 'how are you today?' and rattle off their order like they are talking to a dog.
8. customers who bitch about the price of things. see people, there's this great thing called a MENU, in which the prices are listed. you can read the menu and decide whether you are happy with the price BEFORE you order. ps, bitching about something you think is too expensive isn't going to lower the price.
there are many more but i'm hungry. so later.
