10 Things Cafe Staff Are Sad To Say They Know Too Well

Whether your brewing the beans, chauffeuring the food, pigging the dishes or just slapping a constant and painful smile across your face; this one's for you.

1. The customer is always right

You are rarely right. Mostly Never. Ever.

2. When you don't have almond milk

We're sorry. It's expensive. It's hard to work with. It's a high allergen. It also just tastes bad. And there is a very large chance that you're not actually lactose intolerant.

3. When the guy that just asked if you have almond milk, sees that you don't, and opts for regular milk

If you are not lactose intolerant, please don't sacrifice your healthy milk digestion for a powdery or nutty water like substitute. It's just milk, don't cry over it.

4. Having your clothes constantly smell like that gross work smell

And no matter how many times you soak and bleach and Omo and Napisan; its never enough.

Be ready to smell like old, dank dishes forever.

5. And you will always be blamed if the price is too high

Because clearly you, the girl with braces and acne, is running the show here and setting all the prices

6. Your weak, decaf, soy, extra hot latte with chocolate on top is not a real thing

Please, there's only so many amendments you make to a cup of coffee. It's no longer coffee, it's just a sad mash of not real milk and not real coffee.

Further, what if I told you that a latte with chocolate on top, IS JUST A CAPPUCCINO

7. Expresso

That's all I have to say really

8. When you drop something and it smashes

Every time without fail, this symphony of breaking is louder than life, followed by a synchronised glare from every person in the room that without words just yells 'HOW DARE YOU DROP A PLATE YOU BASTARD'

If only it were a little more like Greece or that Rolling In The Deep film clip

9. When you announce the name of the food your holding, ready to give to its lucky owner and...

*every person on the table raises a hand and says yes* or *blank stares*

WHOSE DAMN FOOD AM I HOLDING?! WHY IS GIVING YOU YOUR FOOD LIKE CRACKING THE DA VINCI CODE?!

10. When you close at 3, and a table of 6 walks in at 2:50

Never has anything made me more angry than the line "Oh great! We just made it"

And yet maybe all of these things just happen in my workplace.
