Winning.

Hurray let’s browbeat the underpaid barrista for following company protocol and trying to be helpful.

Yes, I know it’s a show. Still.

Doesn’t he get his comeuppance from this very scene later on anyway?

Admittedly it’s not a show I’m familiar with. It’s more the interaction itself taken outside of the context of a show and being paraded around tumblr as something incredibly sharp and witty that bugs me. Hopefully the character did get his comeuppance.

It’s actually not a show, but a movie: “Grown Ups”

And yes, he does get shit for this from the female character later, who explains that Venti is a 20 oz drink.

I’ve never spoken to a Starbucks barrista who gave me shit for not talking to them in designated Starbucks speak, they all seem bright enough to know what the sizes equate to and don’t hold up the line to school me in the ways of daring to leave my bubble of cheap coffee. It would be pretty douchey if they did, like having the sandwichsmith at subway refusing to serve you because you asked for a small sub instead of a 6” one. Or having In-Out hold your burgers hostage because you asked for “no bun” instead of “protein style”. Or McDonalds making fun of you for ordering a “kid’s meal” instead of a “happy meal”.

Speaking as a former food service wench myself, if the person running the register was honestly sassing the customers over their terminology, I wouldn’t be overly sympathetic if people got snippy with them.
