The next knucklehead that asks me if I want cream and sugar in my black coffee is going to suffer the full brunt of my slight irritation.
This literally happens at least once a week:
Me: large black coffee, please.
Knucklehead: Okay, that's a large black coffee (pushes buttons) sugar?
Me (thinking it's silly, but realizing it's a valid question since sugar doesn't affect the color of the divine fuel): No, thanks. Just black.
Knucklehead: Cream?
Seriously?!
It wouldn't be black, then. Would it?
I get that people are trained to do certain things a certain way without any sort of deviation, but have we bled the humanity out of people so much that they simply switch to automatic, and cease all independent thought?
Here's a wacky idea:
Maybe if these people start getting paid a livable wage, they'll start giving a shit.
Just a thought.
