Last night my son and I were standing in line at Starbucks. This Starbucks happens to be inside a local grocery store.
The man and woman in front of us were purchasing some groceries, a latte, and a frap. They where taking forever and I was a little put out that they were buying groceries in the Starbucks line.
As Joy, the absentminded barista, made the couples drinks the man took a biscotti from the fixture in front of the register and started eating it.
I waited and waited to see if he would pay for it and he never did. When he was done he tossed the wrapper in the garbage and walked off with his frap and groceries
I was so close to saying something but I didn't.
What would you have done?
Ugh!! People like that are scummy. It's so much easier thinking backwards in "already happened" situations like these, but I hope I would've said to the Starbucks lady, "Hey that guy just stood here right in front of you and ate a biscotti and didn't offer to pay for it." Sounds like they need to move the biscotti off away from the counter due to it's accessibility, not to mention that this neanderthal just stuck his filthy, stealing paws inside and rendered it germy. Ugh!
