Starbucks Fail....

So I just got back from what I thought would be a enjoyable Starbucks visit...
I was wrong...
I walked into Starbucks all happy and ordered my usual Peppermint Hot Chocolate
So I move over to the pick up area...
as I did so I was listening (as I often do) to the conversation going on behind the counter
The cashier tells the Barista(who reminded me of Seth Rogen) my order and he replies
"Dude, I don't even know what the last people ordered"
So the Cashier repeats their order as well as mine.
He kinda looked at him with a "Your a waste of my time" look on his face.
So the Barista starts making drinks at a snails pace...
All the while he is chatting to the other people waiting to get their drinks.
so he makes them their drinks and the girl makes a face and he said
"I can see you not to thrilled about that drink, how about I make you something else"
(In my head i'm like i've been standing here 5 F***ing minutes how about you make my drink)
She was all like "Sure, do i pay extra?"
and then he said "No don't worry about it" (insert grin here)
So about 2 minutes later he says "Peppermint Mocha"
I look around like who else loves peppermint...
I look back at him and he's staring dead at me... So I say
"Is that mine?"
"Yeah"
"Oh, you mean Peppermint Hot Chocolate"
"No, Peppermint Mocha"
"I ordered a Peppermint Hot Chocolate"
He looks at the cashier, who at this point just looks at him in hopes that he will burst into flames.
He then said "She ordered a Peppermint Hot Chocolate"
At this point I just want to get the heck out of there, so I said.
"It's fine, I'll just take this"
The cashier (Who looked like he felt sorry for me) says "you know it has coffee in it?"
To which I reply "Yeah it's fine, don't worry about it, It's not that big of a deal"
(It was a big deal)
I didn't want that barista to make me anything else, most likely he would only mess it up and I was so over it... I just wanted to leave.
So I take my Peppermint Mocha which Sucked and
Walked back to my car with disappointment and defeat in my heart.
So Yeah that's my sad tale of woe.
If he had just made my drink right... It would have made my day better.
*Side note* My sewing machine has been in the shop and I miss it....
