Oh no! The lines at Starbucks are about to get even longer!
Customers have long been complaining that Starbucks has become an assembly-line, heartless coffee shop. In response, Starbucks executives have told baristas to slow down and make each coffee drink with more care than before.
Baristas are no longer allowed to work on more than two cups of coffee at once, and have to steam milk for each individual drink rather than making a pitcher and using it multiple times. One barista said that the changes will double the time it takes them to make the coffee.
We like the sentiment behind this idea, but we DO NOT like the idea of waiting twice as long in lines! When it’s time to get coffee in the morning we need it right away!
