Hah, take note!

“Starbucks Corp. said Wednesday that it would cut as many as 6,700 jobs as it closes hundreds more stores and eliminates more positions at its corporate headquarters… “

Apparently, the POWERS at Starbucks read my blog…

Starf*cks

starfcks1Yeah, i don’t normally go to Starbucks.  Figure i can get good coffee for half the price elsewhere.  However, due to a few gift cards that i received for Christmas, i wondered into a Starbucks yesterday.

Now, in the sales girl’s defense, it’s been a LONG time since I’ve been to a Starbucks (the menu has changed significantly), and i really wasn’t certain what i wanted (except that i knew i wanted a HOT coffee beverage and not a COLD, iced coffee).

WTF?  the menu didn’t say whether the selections were hot/cold.

I really wanted a skinny– or NONFAT–  mocha cappuccino.  But by mistake, i ordered a tall, “light” mocha frappuccino.  I used the term “light” instead of skinny, ’cause the menu read, “order it light for 1/2 the calories.”  

Now, in my defense, after i placed my order i said, “this is a hot beverage, right?”  Sales girl pulls an ipod ear bud from her ear and says, ”What, I’m sorry i didn’t hear you… ?”     *christ*

I repeat, “tall, light, mocha…” 

SHE INTERRUPTS, ”yeah, yeah i got that…”    *okey, dokey then*

She turns to my husband who orders a tall, skinny, mocha cappuccino.  Sales girl says, HOT right?  Hubby says, “yes.”  I say, “I want mine HOT too.”  She says, “the frappuccino is a cold beverage… so you want your original order but HOT?… a cappuccino… right? 

Thinking she now has my order correct i respond, “yes!”

I end up with:  TALL WHITE MOCHA CAPPUCCINO

When they called out the order, i turned to the guy behind me and said, ”Dude, that must be yours… “

Sales girl says, “Oh, isn’t that what YOU ordered?”  I say, “No, i wanted a LIGHT MOCHA CAPPUCCINO.”

Girl replies, “Oh, you should have ordered that as a ‘SKINNY’ or NONFAT mocha cappuccino…”

Whatev’… i take the WHITE, WHOLE-FAT, WHIPPED DEVIL COFFEE, knowing full well it probably has a bazillion calories. 

i so wanted out of there.

NOTE TO STARBUCKS:  Use proper wording on your signage.  Don’t tell customers to order a product “LIGHT” when what the barista understands is SKINNY or NONFAT.   Oh, and tell the barista taking the coffee order to turn off her ipod and remove the ear buds…

Slumdog Didn’t Care

Ok, didn’t get it.  A big fat, “ HUH?” from me. 

So disappointed that parts were subtitled (first 1/3 movie), as prior to purchasing movie tix i specifically asked if the movie was subtitled.  Was told NO by sales girl (liar, liar pants on fire).

Didn’t stay for the whole movie.  Walked out right after the puking scene…

This movie was: 
(+) puking
(?) infidelity– didn’t stay long enough to determine.

HIRE me!

I’m so sick of going on interviews…

For the record–
my favorite ice cream is chocolate chip
my strengths are my organizational and communication skills
my weaknesses are chocolate, vibrators, tequila, and Grey Goose
i’m efficient, prompt, rarely gossip, and have natural breasts (34C).

What more could you want?

Even if you don’t agree politically…

you HAVE to AGREE that the Obama family is so FREAKIN’ CUTE.  I’m diggin’ on ‘em…

P.S.  I so wanted to see President Obama carry Michelle over the threshold (but alas, they went around back)… but, how freakin’ sexy would that have been?
