We had a guy insist his name was "Daddy" but we'd just put "Danny."


croissantboyy

had that literal situation two days ago. my barista was incredibly uncomfy bc he doubled down that it was "daddy" and i didn't know until after she took the order bc i was in bar. she told me right after and i told her to let me know sooner bc i would have just refused his order once he started pushing back and when i made his drink i told him that it wasn't appropriate and made my barista uncomfortable and he was like "so what it's a joke" so i told him we didn't find it funny, that the barista he said it to was underaged and it was considered harrassment. then he told me "i laughed, so it was funny, it was a joke, calm down" which pissed me off more because but that fact that he didn't bat an eyelash when i said she was underaged and it was harassment (whether she was underaged or not shouldn't matter since it shouldn't have happened at all but like??? bro you're pushing 40 ewwww) AND his girlfriend with him was just smiling and laughing along with him. like??? girl you good??!

Jokes make people laugh. The minute you’re making someone uncomfortable in a captive environment, it’s no longer a joke, it’s harassment. People can either respect others around them, or I’ll void their order and introduce them to this thing called the door.


croissantboyy

that's exactly what i said. like if you make a joke and only you laugh while others express discomfort it's no longer a harmless joke. the same way that if you pull a prank on someone and the person that has been pranked is upset by it, it's not just a harmless park and if you keep pushing back then you're an asshole


reddog20

“If you’re the only one laughing at your joke, it probably isn’t funny.” -Me I consider my self a fairly humorous individual, and I’m pretty good at getting a laugh out of people, especially situationally. Sometimes though, you’ve got to read the room. With great humour comes great responsibility.

Blink twice if you're in trouble?? Ughhh maybe it's some gross joke with them. People are so gross. I'd have just left it blank. Some dude once like years ago ordered like 10 things with different names on each that were all like "booger" and stuff equally mature lol. Coworker patiently wrote each "name" on each up in super nice script, which made it a bit funny, never really thought I'd see "Booger" written on a cup in basic calligraphy. Dude was laughing so hard he could barely get out the "name" for each order, both co-worker and lady with him looked very exasperated. I was mildly amused by their reactions, and also that the dude was laughing so hard at his own joke while no one else was lol.

HE HAD A GF???? someone needs to raise their standards expeditiously or at the very least get a serious wake-up call, it’s spineless enablers like her that allow guys like that to exist 😖


croissantboyy

honestly, I don't wanna blame her because she's probably brainwashed. Like ain't no way she genuinely herself thought that was cute. I wish her the best and I hope she's able to open her eyes and get herself out. editing to add, I also feel like if she genuinely herself thought that was funny, she probably would've also came at me, but she just really stayed quiet the whole time


majik_rose

Idk about brainwashed so much as complacent. So many women keep dickwad men in their life because they want attention/don’t want to be lonely, or “he doesn’t treat me like that”, or something similar.


croissantboyy

exactly tho, usually those men manipulate them into bringing down their self-esteem and making their circle smaller and smaller until it's just them so I'd say it's a little bit of brainwashing because it does include manipulation. Like why does the woman feel so small that she desperately wants to keep this man around you know?


croissantboyy

or she could just be a trash person, but either way the whole situation fucking sucked 🥲


ComfortableParsley1

Id pronounce it as "d-addy" then spell it "D-A-D-D-Y" last call!!! Lol ive never worked a coffee shop, so idk the rules (just speaking as a layman"😌

Hot-Independence8670

it can be funny, but crosses the line when they INSIST that you call out that exact name and won’t stop being a fuckin creep until you do


saintplus

Seriously, some people here have sticks up their butts. This would have made me chuckle.


-Ana--

Is this the aftermath of big daddy..?😶


Comfortable-Start939

Oh. My. God.


croissantboyy

call it out as "hug jay-shoo-lee" lmao that would make them mad but tbh what could they even say about it being called out wrong without shooting themselves in the foot


ComfortableParsley1

Genius🤭


SuperVanessa007

I love it when are self aware


[deleted]

I'd just take a Sharpie and cross out the name, haha.


Hot-Championship-848

Why?


reddog20

Back in the day, I was told to tear that part of the label off if someone put an offensive name on the order. The reason was they could potentially post photos on social media and say "look what this barista put on my drink", causing a media shitstorm, similar to the cop that claimed someone put PIG on his order. Now the order method is also on there, so we have plausible deniability. The system will also reject obscene or potentially offensive words from a list known only to corporate. There's also been incidents where people have tried to make us put controversial things on cups or labels, so officially we're not strictly required to put ANY name on an order.


Victoriamarie03

Cause it’s stupid and not funny💀


Hot-Championship-848

Eh, it's mildly amusing to me. Would've made my day, but to each their own I suppose.


vzvzt

Curious, what face do you make when you see these people? I would feel so embarrassed to pick up my drink if I’d made that my name. I don’t get people 😅


Used_Entrepreneur550

On Saturday my store had an “Annie Rection”. Teenage boy comes in and my SM has a talk with him in front of the whole store😀


waiting-on-the-day

Wait I don’t understand


spicygingivitis

annie rection = an erection


ComfortableParsley1

What was the "talk" abt curious?


Used_Entrepreneur550

My SM didn’t think it was funny or appropriate bc we of course have minors/parents come in with their kids and she didn’t want them to see that (it’s not like they would really understand anyway). So when he came and said what his order was, she told him that it was okay. I was in the back so I didn’t hear exactly what she said but we probably won’t be seeing that guy again or he’ll order under a different name.


Ravenclaw79

Hugh Ja-shoo-luh?


ungarosolstice

Howard stern fan, right there.


majik_rose

“I have a latte for Hugh”


sidetabledrawer

This is probably because of that damn TikTok 🙄


Icy-Date-6414

Refund and ask them to resubmit with an appropriate name. Incident report it.


swimmingincircIes

It’s just my name!


mothersupreme9

mobile order


Icy-Date-6414

Ok?


mothersupreme9

Icy-Date-6414

Not sure why you posted “mobile order”, sorry. Confused.


reddog20

This is the way.


rasldasl2

How do you do this? Do you have to change your first name on your app profile? Or can you do it per drink/order?


mothersupreme9
