Default so stupid (work rant)

so i work at starbucks and someone took away our drink sleeve holders and instead put them on top of the espresso machine so that people who have to ask us for a sleeve.

i asked our as. manager and she said that the regional manager wants to promote "less self service"...so they took away our drink sleeve holders...

so now every other customer asks me for a sleeve and it gets really annoying and i think it is fucking stupid. if we want to decrease th amount of self service within the store, why dont we just take away the condiment bar? that way you would have to ask me for a sleeve, sugar in the raw and a stir stick?

so instead, we make you burn your hand, come close to dropping the drink, make you have to walk back to us just to ask us for a sleeve and then we'll say, "Have a nice day. "

pointless and inefficient

Me at McDonalds.

-#1 with a coke.
-Pay and wait.
-Man calls my receipt number
-I walk up and take bag.
-I look at bag and see no ketchup.
-"Excuse me, can I have some ketchup?"
-"How many?"

HOW MANY? WTF, just take a handful and throw it in the bag. I dont fucking know how many packets I am going to use :madr:
