yes, but that doesn't explain why it takes people in front of me 5m to order a coffee and a pastry and it takes me 30seconds.

but i do know why, it's because they are weird and needy and need to interact and question and hem and haw rather than just know what they want and ask for it. same type of person who will then come back and complain to the person behind the counter how it wasn't good or they should get their money back or something equally stupid.

it's that i have respect for service workers, as I was one for years, and I want to make our interact quick and pleasant rather than miserable and drawn out.
