I guess they want them to start spelling people’s names correctly.

    But… if OP’s assertion is true, how could they possibly obtain a degree in ANYTHING without paying attention? I mean, Mc Donalds drive through minimum wage non educated employees get my order right and these Starbucks “college grads” can’t figure it out? Well, I guess that’s why they work for Starbucks rather than their degree field?

      Lol, I posted that comment on the description of my post as a joke because people always say their name is either misspelled or purposely misspelled to make you remember your experience. There are senior year students working at college Starbucks and they are terrible at remembering their customers’ orders while my wife with no GED, and almost a decade of food/barista service experience can remember all the college board members’ usual orders including repeat student customers.

      paying attention to what you order.

      Does not mean they don’t pay attention to anything. Much like you paying attention to baristas mistakes but only half reading the comment you’re replying to.

        I’m sorry, what? I am actually asking you a sincere question. If I order a grande nitro cold brew, add a splash of sweet cream, what would you think I was ordering? No, really, I am truly asking you what beverage you would then hand me after I pay you. It has been my experience that I will get a cup of cream with a splash of coffee. Is that what you think I should receive from my order? Are my standards too high that I think a trained basista can provide me with my actual order? Should I just take what they give me, regardless of what I wanted, and just pay them because they “tried”?
