Banned from every coffeeshop in town for being overly critical of their coffee and baked goods. I really don’t get why they’re so upset, I mean I’m just trying to help them improve. How are they supposed to get better if no one tells them their scones are bland and their coffee is burnt-tasting? I even went so far as to leave a few recipes I found online that I thought they might find helpful printed out and stapled together in little packets, one for each shop, but somehow instead of thanking me they got angry. <br><br>The last one I went to, the one right by the park, got particularly upset when I pulled out my notebook and started scribbling away in it as soon as I took a sip of the coffee they’d given me. They actually called the cops, which I didn’t think they were allowed to do, so I left a very scathing Yelp review. <br><br>I don’t get what’s happening, at home I can make a mean cup of joe and whip up delicious muffins with the best of them, it can’t be that hard, right? I mean, how do they even stay open offering subpar baked goods and over-roasted coffee? In these trying times I feel like we should all be supporting each other, but when someone is screwing up this badly, don’t they deserve to be called out?<br><br>​<br><br>Edit: 1. Oh my gosh, y’all, this has really blown up. I just want to say thank you to everyone who has commented, even the ones who have been rude. I’d be willing to bet I’ve made each of you angry at some point, whether it was by asking you to do your job better, pass me a bottle of ketchup, or anything in between. I very much appreciate my followers, and am aware that there is a bit of a personality clash between me and the rest of the world, which I can only really attribute to my upbringing. I’m trying to be better, to be more considerate of others, but it is very hard. If I hurt you, or offended you, please know it wasn’t on purpose. <br><br>2, This has been claimed to be AI generated, and while I can assure you that it is not, I also can’t prove one way or the other. It’s possible that the AI was inspired by something I wrote in the past, or maybe we just happen to write in a similar style. I don’t know, and I don’t really care that much. I’m only upset about it because I feel it discredits me as a writer and makes it seem as though I’m not a real person. If I were AI, I’d be way more popular, lol. <br><br>3, I am not, nor have I ever been, a coffeeshop employee. I’m just a very critical person.
