Incoming Burr-ista.
« on: 14 Nov 2013, 19:58 »

Hello, am Binks. I work at Starbucks which means Jeph himself will probably ban me soon but I shall enjoy my time here, hopefully.
I really don't remember when I started reading QC but it's been AT LEAST 4 years, maybe even 5 or 6. I'm 21 years old and spend my time on schoolwork and neckbearding on WoW. I haven't posted on a forum since I was about 15 or 16 so this is pretty cool, BROS.

Why thank you! Well here's hoping I don't get banned soon for generally being a pain in the ass. That is one of my favorite hobbies!

Welcome fellow new person and former fellow barista.

I used to sling coffee at a local B&N after I applied for a book seller position...

No worries about being a *$'s barista. Just get me my light caramel macchiato, and we'll be fine. ;)

Welcome to the boards!

P.S. Hide your lug wrench.

By hiding it. *melts Bink's lug wrench with a plasma torch*


Basically do the opposite of that, but it's far too late now.

my skillz at coffee slinging are limited to :

Maxwell House + non dairy creamer + sugar + sugar.

any more than that, I go to Mocha Mo's coffee shop. Tis only $2.75 for a "pour it yourself" 20oz cup.

Anyway: Greetings, Fellow Life Form!!!

I guess it shall stay FOREVER then.

Just regular plain old coffee at Starbucks is actually pretty good and cheap. $2.49 for a 20oz and that's airport price. Though I could never finish anymore than 8 ounces of the stuff. My chest gets tighter than a two year old. :/

Good grief, do people really drink that quantity of coffee in one go? That's nearly two thirds of a litre. I think it'd kill me.

There's this really handy "other thing" I'm going to write as a footnote to my abstract that I can probably explore these issues in. I think I'll call it my "dissertation."

...20 oz of coffee, if memory serves, is a Venti at Starbucks.

How do I make coffee? I don't drink the stuff, but if anyone wants some, "There's a Dunkin Donuts down the street, about 2 blocks that way. ->" (A statement which is true for just about any location and direction in the greater Boston area, by the way.)

Welcome, Binks! And don't worry about being a pain in the ass. We have a few of those in residence already.
