Possible problem: You've taught your child how to order your grande, nonfat, no-whip, extra-hot mocha.
Real problem: Those were his/her first words.

Possible problem: The barista knows you by your drink.
Real problem: Four different baristas at four different Starbucks know you.
Really big problem: The barista who retired 3 years ago sees you on the street and still knows you.

Possible problem: You download a Starbucks locator on your PDA.
Real problem: You check it before you make hotel reservations.
Really big problem: You check it before you make airline reservations.

Possible problem: You attend a ribbon-cutting at the new Starbucks.
Real problem: You cry.

Possible problem: You get a Duetto card(a reloadable Starbucks card), and, when the bill comes, you're dismayed to learn how much you're spending each month.
Real problem: It's the same amount you spent for rent on your first apartment.
Really big problem: You dump the Duetto card and go back to cash so you won't have to know.

Thank goodness I don't have the problem. :) :)
 
Those are funny TRL :)

I have a Starbucks about a block from my work and have never been in there. That place is way overpriced for me.
 
Can't say I have ever been in one either, guys. And judging from the above, I dont think I will try it!! :lol: :lol:
 
4x, I went to a Starbucks one time. Found I cannot stand flavored coffee. Yuk.

Besides, the prices sent me into sticker-shock! $4 for a cup of coffee --- not in my lifetime.
 
They OK but I just like my coffee with cream thank you ! ^_^
 
Never have seen a Starbucks. At 4 bucks a cup don't think I will. :lol:
