Coffee Time
My coffee order of preference breaks down like this:
home brew
Starbucks
local bakery
Tim Horton's
Dunkin Donuts
gas station coffee
Honey Dew
wet dirt
Krispy Kreme
Tim Horton's usually has excellent, friendly service. But the Smith Street Tim Horton's in North Providence continues to set the bar for dumbest employees. I had to repeat everything three times one morning last week.
"Could I get a medium hot french vanilla with just cream and a toasted honey wheat bagel to go?"
"You want an iced coffee?"
"No, hot."
"And that was a hazelnut?"
"No, french vanilla."
"For here?"
"No, to go actually."
'Kevin' was also a mouth breather and paused for about 30 seconds between each question.
He DID know that he was getting off at noon though. That he was sure of.

Tim Hortons coffee in Canada is much stronger and better and there are less mouth breathers working in the stores
I'm quite sure 'Kevin' could quote you R.I. labor laws for hourly workers (including that provision for a 15 minute on-the-clock break every two hours), even if he can't remember you ordered a hot french vanilla to go (and I only read the posting once!).
