Normal days are not today

Normally i do not write about work... that is not B. Cooley that is just what i do... right?
Today is not any other day... i am on my 12 day count down... goodbye KB!  
Now i normally do not complain about customers crazy orders... 
I can deal with the carmel machetes when we don't sell weapons and the creamsicles even though we don't sell ice cream and the supersize my mocha when i don't work at McDonalds BUT i cannot seem to comprehend 2 orders given in the past 2 days.  
1) I made 2 caramel creamices (frappuccino's in america) i placed them on the counter as i called out the drink... the lady said "which one is the double double triple double caramel with double double whip cream?"  (Brittany remain calm) first i said i made them the same with an extra pump of caramel.  ... waiting response... oh but i asked for... Ma'am i don't know what that would mean.  I can only follow the recipe with slight changes or the drink will simply not come together.  The lid is only so big and i cannot fill it any fuller with whip cream.  I walk away... This my friends is unfathomable.  WHAT?  First of all here is a visual for you... this is what it should look like eh?
If i were to add double double whipped cream i would start here:
^










I cannot stack whip cream that high... correct?  Then if i add double double triple double caramel... where is this all going?  you want a literal cup of caramel with whip cream on top?  
2) I want an iced cappuccino
Do we all know how to build a cappucino?


The drink is half foam... you can't make cold foam... we explained this to the customer when they then said well make it hot and stick it in the freezer...
Good bye KB!  It's been real.

  1. are you really leaving? I bet you're so excited! Who's the girl who gets to take your spot? Did you take another job?

    PS. We make a customer an iced cap at Starbucks. He seriously wants the hot foam. Sick.

  3. That Caramel Frap sounds just sick. All that sugar makes me want to gag. Sounds like she wanted a third of a cup of caramel, half a cup of Frap and half a cup of whipped cream. YUCK. Sounds like something my Brian would order...Haha. Remember his triple rasberry mocha, nonfat, no whip..like it mattered after all that rasberry. I miss Kuhl Beans but it wouldn't have been the same without you and Laura too.
