So the local coffee shop where I go and sometimes work might be in a little trouble now that Starbucks is coming to town. Not only can they not compete with a Grande 2% Cinnamon Dolce latte with light whip (I know it's a girly drink but it's good), but I just ordered a Vanilla latte here, and the girl picking up the ticket and making drinks asked what a latte was. That's not really something you want to hear from a coffee shop employee. You think someone would cover that in some training. In light of this, you probably don't want to hear the following, most of which I have actually heard:
1. "Wow, I've never seen that before," from your doctor.
2. "What does this part do exactly?" from the mechanic working on your car to the other mechanic.
3. "How much do stamps cost again?" from the post office.
4. "Honey, have you seen the kids recently," from your spouse.
5. "Did you order a pizza," from the pizza delivery guy standing at your door.
6. "We're out of hamburgers," from the Burger King drive thru worker.
