What they should be working on is an app that lets me email my order to the cashier while I’m in the parking lot, and if I have a card as well let me bypass the line and go straight to the pick up counter. My Starbucks has the longest lines in the city because the cashiers are all Chatty Cathy’s who will stop forward motion for up to five minutes because they are chit-chatting with customers. I know it makes me the mean person, but I really don’t need to spend 15 minutes in a Starbucks to get a basic latte.
