Grumpy Breakfast Buying

I yelled at some cafe people this morning.


I'm usually a pretty nice customer, actually.

But really - correct procedure for selling someone food is not:
- take customer's order, take her money, put her croissant in the toaster thingy to heat up.
- neglect to give her back her change.
- ignore the fact that the croissant is almost done and wander off to do something else.
- note that croissant is burning, tell someone else it's burning and wander off again.
- come back, notice that croissant is now very black, take it out of the toaster, and walk off.
- when customer starts pointing out, in an annoyed fashion, that she still hasn't got (a) her change or (b) her breakfast, roll your eyes and walk off.
- come back a minute later, dump change into customer's hand, and walk off again.
- when customer starts getting upset and says "But I still don't have my croissant!", inform her that it's burnt and you're going to make another one... as soon as you've taken the next guy's order.


Yep. I yelled.
