"Then I actively, loudly, vigorously, wash my hands right after so no one can accuse me of being unsanitary. I pet ALL the cute dogs," one worker wrote in response to the original post. For employees, one of the perks of the Starbucks drive-thru job is all the opportunities to pet other people's pups. Maybe this shouldn't be surprising at a coffee shop that offers "puppuccinos", which Starbucks Secret Menu reports are just cups of whipped cream with no coffee included. Ultra-caffeinated kids, a regular who always offers marijuana, and cops watching TV on a laptop all made the list. Employees on a Reddit thread dedicated to the topic listed some of their favorite weird things they've witnessed while working the Starbucks drive-thru. Another employee said that they were confronted with a small monkey leaning out of the car window, as well as a more familiar cat who was being held by a passenger in the same car.Īnimals aren't the only thing drive-thru workers see in people's cars. Other Starbucks drive-thru workers report having seen animals as exotic as giant lizards that the owners held up for employees to pet, as one Reddit post confirms. "So there was something weird in a car's passenger seat as it approached," one drive-thru worker wrote on Reddit, "and I thought it was a kite or a large painting or something but it turned out to be a PARROT and when I gave the driver her order he screamed and ripped the banana nut bread bag out of her hands and started chowing. Tips get better though, so there's that at least." "Straight up brings out the worst in people. "Christmas season begins and the 7 rings of Hell slowly open to let through all the angry Christmas catastrophes that somehow are always the local barista's fault," one employee wrote in reply to the original morning versus afternoon customer debate. The worst, however, is dealing with a drive-thru customer in the afternoon during Pumpkin Spice Latte season and beyond. Others concurred that the afternoon and evening customers are typically more difficult. Ya know what? I'll have one of those cookie frappe thingys. "It's the afternoon and evening DT customers that make me want to smash my head through a wall. "In my experience, the mornings are crazy busy, but the customers are generally easier to handle because they know exactly what they want and how to order," an employee wrote on Reddit.
