~Oct. 20 Suzanne is accounted for - she was sick. Ann gave us a store review and we did pretty well. We finally got the glass replaced in the front of the store - it only took three weeks. Now we can begin the repairs on the inside. James's birthday is October 21 - the same day Soo is due. That is all. ~Oct. 09 The missing regulars: Trevor is accounted for. Still missing: Suzanne (grande vanilla soy latte) and Jon (triple grande vanilla latte and a [various] cookie). I remembered a couple others this morning, but it was like 5 a.m. and I am not the same person right now, so I'm satisfied with what I have remembered. Don't regulars realize that they come to the same place, and get the same thing, at the same time, every day, and they think they can just stop showing up, and we won't worry? What's wrong with these people?!? Customers: if you are going to take a vacation, you need to let your Starbucks crew know. Nothing formal or written required (hmmm..... but that's an idea, a "Regular Customer Vacation Form" with Name, Drink, and Vacation Dates). And for Chrissakes, if you move, let them know! Shame on all of you who have deserted your Starbucks Crew-of-the-Past! Call them. [Make sure you call at the time you used to go there, or they'll have no idea who you are.] Look them up in the phone book and say: "Yeah, Hi, I'm the guy at 7:12 a.m? Tall-nonfat-no foam-chai? Yeah! Hi! Well, I moved/got a new job, so I go to another store now, and I just wanted to let you know that it's not personal, and I'm okay." Is it too much to ask? Sheesh! ~Oct. 03 We got more Anniversary Blend in! Woo hoo! Has anyone seen Trevor (iced venti americano no water)? Did I stalk him too far? Or how `bout the triple-grande extra-hot no-foam breve latte guy? .... Okay, he can stay away. Or Jessica (iced single-venti caramel macchiato) in the Audi? Or Lisa's Mike (iced grande americano)? What other regulars have been missing lately?
Today was Thomas' birthday and we didn't even remember until he was almost off (he worked all day!) He's 26. It's been determined that we are all Virgos or Libras. There were too many Virgo birthdays so we need to compile them into a birthday party for everyone. ~Sept.
11 We closed today
around noon. All Starbucks stores did. It's the first time I've ever
"closed." Our Truly is stuck, relatively speaking. She works at 5 a.m. tomorrow but I believe James is covering for her. She & her man Chris were stuck in San Francisco. Last I heard they actually got a hold of a rental car. Truly, please check in with us. Also looks like Chris had to cancel his trip to Italy which is terrible - I guess a bunch of his family was going. Also, Heidi and Kirsten were scheduled to fly to Iowa tomorrow. I doubt it will happen.... at least not tomorrow as scheduled. ~Sept.
10 From what I remember, Michelle's volunteer program is having it's first meeting at the Holman Road Starbucks at 9 am this Thursday. Speaking of Starbucks Literacy stuff, I think we should all bring in a children's book to put in the donation basket since it's empty. Even from a thrift store. We could get it started this weekend..... Chris was supposed to work today but I didn't see him - maybe he'll be in tomorrow before he takes off. Chris Muller are you gonna write to any of us this summer? When do you come back? And what will your schedule be like? Lisa Relth is back and she's dating Iced Grande Americano. Ahhhh Starbucks love. And Hello to
Shelley... please let us know how you're doing and I can post it to
this page. We all miss you! Over and out. |
