Any coffee place anywhere

Two of my favorite drinks are really basic and extremely hard to get.


Every coffee joint anywhere:

Me: can i get a coffee please
Other: sure, what kind?
Me: Coffee
Other: like the kind that drips?
Me: i guess so?? I dunno however you make it.
Other: We don't actually have that here but we can do Americano if you like.
Me: sure hot and black please.
Other: no problem would you like any cream or sugar in that any flavoring?
Me: 馃檭

Every Coffee joint anywhere:

Me: Hi do you all serve hot brewed tea?
Other: Sure, what kind would you like?
Me: Chai tea please

Procedes to charge me for a chai tea latte and procedes to brings me a chai tea latte.

Me: excuse me this isnt right?
Other: didnt you order the chai tea latte?
Me: No ma'am i wanted just a chai tea. Just tea bag and hot water.
Other: oh sorry about that.

Proceeds to bring the right drink without adjusting the cost because a latte is double the price of a normal brewed tea.

After reading this I suppose I am lucky that a few local gas stations, a deli, a diner, and a restaurant still have real (i.e. regular) coffee and tea (and actually charge normal prices). The diner and restaurant even offer free refills!!!!

@DiabolicalBear It is definitely getting worse, not better. I think the main reason I'm lucky in that regard is that there are a truly shocking number of places which serve / sell / offer coffee and tea in a rather small geographic area and the particular places I mentioned are keeping real coffee and tea as a way to stand out from the crowd; and in the case of the deli it gives the owner another way / reason to tell difficult customers to leave.

@thisguy20 some people drink these fancy drinks 2 or 3 times a day. All the artificial sweeteners and sugars will be their death.
