Today...was stupid.
It was generally crazy busy for most of the day, and I swear our store had a sign over it inviting all the high maintenance crazies to come in and make our lives more interesting. But it was really two distinct things that made today just ridiculous.
First, a doctor's office called in with an order of 15 drinks, saying they'd be in for them in 10 to 15 minutes. Someone showed up less than ten minutes later, in the drive-thru, expecting them to be ready. Oh, and this is all while people keep coming in and ordering drinks in the store. G'AH.
Then was the really fun moment of the day. I picked up a coffee urn to move it to the sink, and top completely detached from the body. Crash, splash, narrowly missed my feet but got extremely hot coffee on my left shoe. Fortunately, I was able to get my shoe and sock off before I got burned, but my left pinky toe got the brunt of it and hurt like a bitch for an hour or so afterward.
There were other little things--the woman who didn't actually buy anything, just brought in five bags of coffee for me to grind; knocking the cinnamon dolce shaker off the bar and mildly pricking my finger on a shard as I cleaned it up; the other woman who didn't know what her friend had asked her to get, just the strongest coffee we have, I don't know brewed or espresso, well where's your coffee list, AAAAAAAAA.
All is fine now. I'm home, I've had a hot dinner, tomorrow is a shorter mid-shift...whee.
