Regular Customer: “I’ll have a toffee-hazelnut iced coffee, but can you make it decaf?”
Me: “Sure, no problem. Switching to ‘D,’ then?”
Regular Customer: “Yeah, my doctor told me I should cut down on sugar, so I’m going with decaf!”
Me: “Um… there’s no sugar in regular or decaf coffee. But there is sugar in the two syrups I use to make that flavor; are you sure you want them?”
Regular Customer: “Oh yes, I’m not cutting out every bit of sugar! Just the caffeine sugars.”
Me: “There are zero calories, zero sugars in plain black coffee, either regular or decaf.”
Regular Customer: “Yeah, but my sister says she cut out iced coffee and she’s lost 20 pounds! I have to have my coffee, but I figured I could just do decaf instead.”
Me: “I can use sugar-free flavors for you if you’re trying to—”
Regular Customer: “No! I hate that fake stuff. Just the decaf iced coffee with toffee and hazelnut. Oh, and extra cream.”
