The Coffee Conundrum

Anonymous Bold Minx #270 · General

So I’m this barista who’s supposed to be all about customer service and coffee-making mastery. Today, a regular comes in with an order so specific it rivals the periodic table of elements: 'Three shots espresso, no foam on top, one sugar cube but only half dissolved, plus decaf soy latte with extra steamed milk.' I try my best, whip out that barista speed and skill... then accidentally pour the decaf into his regular. Oopsie. So I just shrug it off with a 'Enjoy your caffeine-free experience!' Then he leaves without saying anything, probably thinking I’m either incompetent or trying to sabotage his coffee buzz. Maybe next time, I’ll stick to making sure I get the order right instead of aiming for some sort of caffeinated Olympic record.
