Would you rather your barista be chatty and bubbly or surly but fast?

Admittedly I'm short on the sugar. Just tell me your order and I'll crank it out fast. Sometimes I feel my drink making speed and efficiency is why nobody has talked to me about my attitude. I mean are you going to reprimand the guy who can make 3 to 4 drinks to your 1 or 2? Are you going to reprimand the guy who makes sure everything is stocked and prepped in the morning without being asked to? Yeah no you just let them be

When I was a barista I was quick but I did silly personal things or made jokes. I'm not much on small talk and I hate hearing the canned greetings, but it's such a short interaction, I get kick out of something a little personal.

@ScreamingFox What kinds of things did you do?

I haven't been to a coffeeshop in over 20 years. I make better coffee at 1/10 the price.

I would rather make my own or just take caffeine pills better yet, but I much prefer the latter option. We both have 💩 to do and there is nothing good to chit chat about.

I make my own coffee.. but i guess some people want attention and recognition served to them along with their drink?

Fast and I’ll take whatever attitude or chattiness gladly

I hate talking so you know my answer. Just give me my drink so I can go

@Mardrae Works for me because I don't like it either. Let me get you served so I can get back to my tasks. Unfortunately they're pushing for friendly service now.

@Crimsondrops yeah, I work as a cashier so I definitely know how hard it can be to be nice and chit chat when you don't want to
