Choosing town depending on the coffee supply? You're some crazy java lovers... :D

*LOL*... that I really would have liked to see!!! Other women give their husbands a grocery list, you give yours a coffee-ingredients-list. :mrgreen:
One day we`ll need a manual just to order something to drink. But I have to admit there`s one thing I dig at Starbucks: Chocolate Cake!!! :wink:

Well, Amsterdam is getting a Starbucks, so the 'trendy coffee flavours' will conquer the Netherlands pretty soon, I guess.
I just missed the boat on those flavours, but then again, I never understood fruit-flavoured tea either. Take a hint from nature, there's no tea-flavoured fruit...
When I visited the USA for the third time, I got a extra dark roast Tim Hortons... Now THAT was nice, but hell will freeze over, before Tim Hortons will come to the Netherlands.

"You know how they call a quarterpounder with cheese over there? Royal with cheese!" Sorry, couldn`t resist...

but hell will freeze over, before Tim Hortons will come to the Netherlands

I`ve never even heard of that before registering here... :wink:

i guess Tim Horton's is alot less known as starbucks, its mostly a canadian coffee/donut place

Kevin Smith seems to enjoy Hortons as well

My best friend works at Starbucks and she actually really likes it. She doesn't like the customers, but loves the company itself. From what I've heard, it's one the best major American companies to work for.

I love me some Starbucks. There's nothing better on a cold day than a Tall White Chocolate Cafe Mocha with nonfat milk and light whip cream. ;-)

I've been wanting to try Tim Horton's since I watched an Evening with Kevin Smith in Toronto...looks like a trip to Canada is in order soon. :)

Yeah it is a great company. I too hate the people with a passion, but the co workers, managers and the way they treat you is really great.

I'm about to enter college and this job is starting to sound appealing to me.

So I guess the original intent of this thread kinda backfired :D

I work at Starbucks too....annoying customers but easily one of the best jobs I've ever had. It's really chill, good pay, free drinks while working, and very flexible with hours.

I actually prefer Gloria Jeans, as far as these shopping mall chains go at least. They do a nice white chocolate moccha, if you feel like something sickeningly sweet.

We got a cappucino machine where I work so we sell sort of coffee stuff now although if a customer wants anything other than an Americano they have to tell me how to make it :P
