"Wow it's cold outside!" "What are your sizes?" "Does a mocha have mocha in it?" These are some of the things we baristas have to hear every single day. If you work in a coffee shop then you totally get it. We get to hear what we call "stupid questions" all of the time! I mean come on, yes a mocha does have mocha in it, why else would it be called a mocha??? And why yes it is very cold outside...it's winter people!!

Working with the public can be difficult. There is a certain way to react to these "stupid questions" without causing a scene and scaring the customers away, not to mention, loosing your job over. So, we put a smile on and answer with every last piece of positivity inside of us.

However, inside our heads, we react a different way. And when the customer leaves we tend to talk about it. These are 10 of the reactions we tend to have every shift:


1. The "Did they really just say that" face.


2. The "Are you kidding me?!" face.


3. The "What the hell did I just witness" face.

4. The "OMG make up your mind" face.


5. The "Wow you really think that way" face.

6. The "Are you really going to ask me what muffins we have" face... THEY ARE CLEARLY LABELED.


7. The "OMG your breathe is death please back up" face.


8. The "Yes a mocha really does have mocha in it" face.


9. The "I can't believe you are let out into the real world" face.


10. The "I can't believe you come in here everyday and ask me the same question" face.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.
