Okay
I
am
the
bad
customer
because
I
didn't
go
back
and
let
them
make
it
right.
I
just
don't
see
how
it
could
work
out
positively
at
this
point,
but
that's
my
problem
not
the
shop's.
However
this
is
my
experience
and
how
you
can
avoid
it.
Desire:
regular
coffee
with
a
bit
of
time
with
my
book,
maybe
a
cookie
or
something.
Time:
Friday
morning
at
9:30am
in
summer
Experience:
It
seemed
a
nice
lively
atmosphere
where
people
are
reading
and
doing
business,
not
too
loud
but
not
a
library.
No
long
line.
Decor
feels
natural
not
trying
too
hard.
I
felt
a
bit
judged
for
ordering
just
a
large
medium
roast,
maybe
that's
all
in
my
head
but
it
was
there.
I
could
not
afford
a
coffee
and
any
baked
good
together
because
I
wanted
to
use
cash
and
I
only
had
$6
on
me
-
again
that's
my
problem
but
a
useful
fyi.
I
asked
for
here
but
maybe
she
had
20/20
foresight
because
she
gave
me
a
to
go
cup.
I
put
in
my
milk
and
tried
to
grab
the
correct
lid,
it
was
obviously
wrong
because
it
LOOKS
like
it
fit
but
it
did
not.
I
did
NOT
overfill
it
but
I
filled
it
95%
because
I
did
ask
for
room
for
milk
but
it
was
90%
full
and
there
was
no
pour
off
spot.
I
tried
to
ask
the
employee
who
was
dusting
about
the
cup
lids
but
I
guess
he
didn't
hear
my
'excuse
me'
and
I
let
it
go.
There
were
no
seats
I
could
see
available.
All
tables
were
full
and
all
the
bar
seats
were
taken.
There
was
a
small
room
with
glass
wall
and
open
door
that
looked
like
it
was
for
employees
but
maybe
it
wasn't?
There
was
a
laptop
there
anyways.
So
disappointed
that
I
wanted
to
spend
$4
for
30
minutes
at
a
coffee
shop
and
instead
I
spent
$4
for
a
coffee.
I
left
out
the
back.
The
coffee:
It's
not
to
my
taste,
the
roast
is
too
strong
and
so
it
leaves
an
acrid
flavour.
But
the
real
problem
was
the
cup.
I
guess
I
DID
have
the
wrong
lid
size
(
again
I
didn't
see
any
labeling
between
the
white
and
blue
lids)
and
so
my
cup
started
to
leak
a
bit
but
no
big
deal,
but
then
if
I
put
any
pressure
on
the
cup
one
direction
or
another
it
made
a
bunch
more
leak
out.
So
now
I
stand
in
light
rain
with
a
coffee
I
don't
like
and
more
depressing
missing
out
on
the
experience
I
didn't
get
to
have
because
I
don't
have
more
money
in
the
budget
for
discretionary
for
the
day,
nor
more
ability
to
consume
caffeine
for
several
hours.
How
to
avoid
this:
a)
Know
that
their
coffee
is
a
strong
roast
even
on
the
medium
b)
Be
louder
when
asking
for
assistance?
Or
more
persistent?
I
wasn't
persistent
enough
c)
bring
more
money
-
my
expectations
weren't
realistic
to
the
current
financial
needs
of
a
coffee
shop
d)
come
later
in
the
day
or
properly
scope
out
the
available
seats
before
ordering
(
I
thought
I
saw
two
free
but
they
had
jackets
over
them)
e)
give
the
owner
a
chance
to
make
it
better
before
you
give
up
like
a
sad
sack.
Tribeca
can
better
label
their
coffee
lids
