Ordering a 'Frank'
I wrote earlier about my apparently unique Starbucks drink preference. Earlier today at the drive-through order screen for the Starbucks across the street from my office:
Barista: Good morning, and welcome to Starbucks. May I take your order, please?A moment later, at the drive-through window:Me: Good morning. I'll have a venti decaf iced espresso. That's five shots...
Barista: I've got this one. Sugar-free vanilla syrup and a little bit of cream on top, right?
Me: That's right.
Barista: We've got it. Drive on through.
Barista: What's your name? We've decided to name this drink after you.Me: I'm Frank.
Barista: Okay, this is a 'Frank' from now on. Thanks!
