I need to vent.

Dear Greedy Customers,
  I am so over you all.  Apparently you feel entitled using your expired punch card with 2 stickers on it, and expect us to break the rules for you, instead of starting a new one like we are supposed to.  Or just because another location gave you a sticker on your punch card for a drink that doesn't meet the requirement, and expect us to do that, though that's not what the punch cards are meant for.  And just because you buy 4 of the same item, doesn't mean you get the 5th one for free.  We haven't had a promotion like that all holiday season.  Don't treat us like shit because we are being nice enough to explain to you why we can't, while keeping a smile on our faces.  You people are so ungrateful.  And honestly, I believe you are the reason why the holiday spirits are ruined.  You suck the life out of people because you just want free stuff.  And then when we follow the rules, you tell us to "fuck off", or proceed to just flat out argue with us about what other people do for you.

It is sad, because at the beginning of December I was so excited for the holidays, and now I am sadfully counting down the next month.  I am ready for people to stop being so greedy.  Granted, that happens year round.  But this time of year, it just seems to be even worse.  

Needless to say, I'm over it all.

--Sincerely,
Your kind Barista
