Starbucks

I am a frequent customer of Starbucks. I admit the fact that I am taken in by this whole Starbucks chain. I like coffee and I like their reduced fat banana chocolate chip cake. But currently I am mad at Starbucks.

The other day my friend and I went to Starbucks. My usual order is tall white chocolate mocha no whip. Instead I decided to get a cup of cappucino. First my disappointment came with how it was the worse cappucino I have ever had and on top of that the couches were taken. How sad??? And my disapointment was followed by anger and frustration. The people who ordered after me got cakes actually they got my favorite cake which is as I mentioned above the reduced fat banana chocolate chip cake. The cashier who always gives me my cake in a brown ugly ass bag, served their cake on a plate and they even got forks. Are you joking me? I mean I can't describe how frustrated I got. Why did they get plates and forks? Was it the fact that these people were middle aged??? Are they saying young people can't use forks and have no manners. What the heck is the message here??? I do not get it. What does starbucks have against young people eating their cake on a plate using a fork??? I do not get it. I mean before that day I didn't even know they had plates and forks I thought they just gave it in a brown bag. But no, they have plates... and forks. We just don't see them because they are in a back... hidden.

Next time I go to Starbucks and get my favorite cake, reduced fat banana chocolate chip cake, I will ask for a plate.... and a fork. Because they have them.
