Eye Rolls and Sticky Buns

You don't wanted it grinded? Ground
Gloria and her eye rolls
Shaking finger
Shaking head
Or worse
The Stare.
She won't
Or
She will before you ask her
Communication is not her forte
Barista 101 mistakes she won't forgive
"she's probably calling out the drinks wrong!"
Barista 201 mistakes she won't acknowledge
"I got her"
Vs
"I got you"
Which feels. So good, so intimate
A stranger taking you
Getting your back


Everyone speaks in a vocab of a limited set of words
Grande
Vanilla
Please
Latte
Bone dry
No foam
Venti
Chai
Soy
Americano
Tall blonde
Tall bold
Tall dark
Venti venti venti

Only now
5 weeks in
Am I looking forward to people
And they seem to connect with me
Look me in the eye
I do NOT yell
Next!
Good morning!!!
Or worst:
Following!!!
Like it was an order
Some people
Like brad
Make her smile
