I liked this article on Wired today not because of the article itself but the picture of SNL's Bill Hader with a stack of drinks from Starbucks to take back to the office. I'm sure it was inspired by going to a Starbucks, finding one or two people in front of you in line and thinking "whew, this will go fast." And then one of them pulls out a long list of drinks because they are "ordering for the WHOLE company." Well there goes your quick coffee break.
This happened once again last week when I had two people in front of me and the woman at the register pulls out a long list. Oh great. Funnier yet and kinda payback was when she asked for a couple of those drink holders they told her they were out but could find her a box to carry them back in. This particular Starbucks has managers I guess who can't predict what they're going to need in advance and fail to order in time. I often feel like saying to someone "ordering for the whole company" to tell them to get their own fucking drinks. At least I'd know how long the line and wait is actually going to be if they got them themselves. :-D http://www.wired.com/underwire/2013/07/how-to-cheat/
