In my Starbucks, they keep the drinks in a FIFO stack. My drink might be done, but they wait until the other drinks in the queue are delivered before they call mine.
This is okay most of the time, but it is annoying when the person in front of me has a large drink order and I can see my drink ready.
- re_todd 13y agoThat sounds like my Starbucks. I was sitting at a table and overheard a customer complaining that they got their coffee after someone that ordered after them. After the customer left, I heard the Starbucks manager explain to the new hire that the "queue" is very important. It thought "wow, this sounds like my old Data Structures class!"
