What is it with coffee shop employyee's in general? When did this job become a status job that required a holier than thou attitude? It seems that the more you pay for your coffee the more attitude you get (Starbucks).

Just for fun, try screwing around with them when they start asking your name so they can "personalize" your cup
They're shocked that anyone wouldn't want their name on a "Lottabucks".
They won't do it for just a plain old overpriced cuppa joe, tho. You have to order the double grande latte or whatever the hell they call the $4 thingamajig

muffins @ dunkin dog-nuts
every time i go there and my dog is with me....
they try and give me a doughnut hole for my dog..
like thats healthy
but seriously twice now...both my wife and i have gotten ill from their
friggan muffins and think they must be using way to much bakers yeast or baking powder because we both get blown up from them and never will buy them ever again. Period.
as for coffee: i make taster's choice gourmet coffee in less than three minutes for about 25 cents per cup. the only time i buy DD's coffee is when i'm on the road and have no choice and would rather get their high test coffee than crash.

they offer my dog donut holes too, when I go through the drive through. WTF is with that??? Pisses me off. I tell them no and they look at me like I am abusing the dog. I do like the coffee, but I don't drink a ton of it because we just brew a big pot in the moring to save $$..

I gotta give the Seabrook DD employees some props. One morning, their electricity went out and they were running on a generator -- no cash register with the easy buttons. There was only a slight backup at the drive thru, and one smart girl was actually tallying the orders with paper and a calculator! And they still had smiles on their faces and apologies on their lips for the "wait". Generally it's hit or miss, though, on accuracy and politeness with these places.

What urks me and happens all the time, I am sure it has happen to you is when they leave the coffee on their side of the counter near the edge, you pay for it and they don't have the courtesy to slide it to your side.
I said once, "well you going to give it to me".
Morons to the nth degree.

Couple of years ago I was taking my son to his football game, early on a Sunday, and I get, "We're out of donuts"
Apparently, the delivery was really late.
And no, they're not baked on-site any more, at least in these parts. " Baked Fresh every 4 hours, 24 hours a day" has gone the way of the do-do, it seems
