Airport starbucks worst job

I have seen the end of the world, and it is a Starbucks at Newark Liberty International Airport at 5:00 AM! It is madness! You have people who have been awake for three days standing in a line that wraps around the terminal, and they all want a Frappuccino that takes ten minutes to make! And the poor kid behind the counter? He looks like he has seen war! He is staring into the abyss of caffeine addiction and the abyss is screaming at him because they are going to miss their flight to Cleveland!

Calling the airport Starbucks worst job doesn’t even begin to cover it. It is not a job; it is a punishment! It is a social experiment designed to see how much abuse a human being can take before they snap and throw a scorching hot latte at a businessman! You are trapping people in a glass box with no escape, charging them nine dollars for bean water, and then acting surprised when everyone is miserable! It is a pressure cooker of despair with a mermaid logo on it!

Combine the stress of air travel with the complexity of custom coffee orders, and you have a recipe for disaster. We have gathered the most savage, stressed, and hilarious tweets from workers and travelers who have witnessed the carnage firsthand.

The cup with “Loser” written on it is harsh, but honestly? I get it. If I had to make four hundred caramel macchiatos before the sun came up, I would start writing insults on cups too. It is the only way to stay sane in an environment that is actively hostile to human happiness.

If you survived the line at the gate, you deserve a break. Check out barista memes, travel humor, and retail horror stories to commiserate with other service industry warriors.
