Rainy mornings annoy me.
It annoys me that everything is so flat, and there are puddles everywhere, and it’s basically impossible to avoid getting my feet soaked while walking in.
It annoys me that I have to walk so far from the parking lot, since everyone and their brother is parking in my lot this week because the mission is up.
It annoys me that Starbucks can’t buy a canopy that sticks out far enough to cover my car window, thus allowing me to get my coffee without getting the entire left side of my body all wet. Their current canopy comes out about a foot and a half — which is where the curb falls. Thus not only do you get rained on, but you get all the water running off the wussy canopy and directly into your car.
It annoys me that Starbucks can’t give me a lid that doesn’t splash coffee everywhere if I don’t carry the cup precisely steady.
ANNOYED.
Glad you got a training schedule figured out..I have been slacking lately and need to get with it too. I feel your pain on the Starbucks issue, as I experienced the lid problem this morning as I was running to my car in the rain. And, lastly…congrats on the launch!
Maybe this is an urban myth, but I heard some college student designed a lid that prevents splash, but its slightly more expensive to make. Rather than use it, Starbucks just bought up the patent so no one else could use it. When I get coffee (lots of coffee) that I’m going to have to carry, I usually get them to put a sticker on the lid.
Manny swears that my spilling my Starbucks every single time is b/c I squeeze the cup not b/c the Starbucks lids suck! I just made him come read this post!
