Considering the fact that by definition the customers are going to be stressed, hung over, nervous, or jonesing, it's kinda guaranteed that serving them isn't going to be a delight.

I believe it's the best and most effective indicator of whether one is a good person or not - the way you treat the grunt workers. I don't give a shit how you talk to the CEO. Show me how you talk to the janitor, and then I'll know if you're a person I want to associate with.

You're not alone Cynmac. My ex had a mood disorder once a month that would send me into hiding. Only kidding. MDs are no fun. I hope you face life boldly.

You know I do. I've been hospitalized twice this year, but it's made a big difference.

One of my personal rules is that a person who is nice to me, but not nice to service providers (check-out people, food servers, etc) is not a nice person. This rule has served me well.

That's most likely his fatal flaw. So of course he blames minorities.

Funny how conservatives blame liberals for being victims, yet check out the uber victim here. Jeeze.

I don't know, I'm a sweater-vest kind of guy. At least I was until I saw Rick Santorum rockin' a sweater vest and that kind of ruined it for me. After that, I don't remember exactly, either I burned all my sweater vests or they all committed self-immolation in their shame by association.

Also, if you're a barista by trade and serious about it (shut up, it is too a thing), there's nothing for you to do at Starbucks. It's one step up from using the "cappuccino" machine at the truck stop. You clean, and push buttons. You don't actually get to make coffee.

Why does he even need a sweater vest? It's MIAMI.

Now, isn't this ironic? When you're a minority, which Trump supporters are, you can never be sure that whatever bad thing happened to you happened because you're a minority or whether it would've happened to a member of the majority, too. That uncertainty is a maddening caustic part of being a minority.

I also promise not to make fun of the humor-impaired.

Yeah, I'm sure it's hilarious when you haven't spent a good part of your life dealing with shit because you're mentally ill. Fuck off.
