my barista crush saves the day

this morning after prayer i journey over to the christian crack house…aka starbucks, where i can be found frequenting, however i never participate in the crack. i get chai. that is besides the point. there were some ordering diffuculties and i exchanged my credit card, when i returned i was about to pay went to hand the nice lady my credit card and she turned away and she says to another partner, yes she is paying, at the exact second that my credit card slips out of my hands and does a little gymnastics and flips right into the vents. yes, its true. my credit card was in the starbucks cooler vent. she says, that i am going to pay, and i respond with “in theory, my card slipped into the vent.”

and here is when my barista crush comes into play. he looks over at me, only the way that a barista would and comes around the corner to help me. we have to unstock part of the cooler to move some parts that dont actually get me to my card. so he asks for some stir sticks like he is doing surgery and he chop stick style gets it out. he has saved the day. and to make my day even better in starbucks style, he says dont worry about it…its on me.

oh how i love my barista crush.
