Baristas, have you ever had such an experience?

Recently, a netizen in Taiwan who works in a coffee shop posted an online post saying that as soon as he entered the shop, he asked the counter, "what kind of drink is the Qin latte?" It makes baristas feel very confused.

I wonder if you have ever encountered such a problem?

When I was working in the coffee bar, a guest came.

Me: "Hello ~ what can I do for you? "

Guest: "what is a Qin latte?" "

Me: "what latte." "

Guest: "Qin latte. "

I looked at my colleague next to me, who shook his head in confusion.

All of a sudden, I remembered that there was a famous "Liao Guo Coffee" nearby. Maybe Qin Coffee is their special signature coffee, and the guests may have found the wrong home.

So I kindly remind you, "are you looking for Liao Guo Cafe?" You have the wrong room! "

Guest: "are you kidding me?" Why is your service so exaggerated? Can't I ask for coffee that I don't understand? Do you still want me to buy it somewhere else? "(anger)

Me: "No!" I'm sorry, because we don't have lattes like Qin. "

Guest: "what?" You wrote it yourself on the menu! Sold out? You guys are really blind! "pointing to the menu.

We looked at the direction the guest was pointing, and then my colleagues and I looked carefully.

"Oh! It's a hazelnut latte! "

It's a # hazelnut latte

For fear that it would be embarrassing to expose the guests' mistakes, they said the "Qin Guo" latte together, and took the "Qin Guo" syrup to let the guests smell it, and then made a cup of "Qin Guo" latte for the guests.

Guest: "are you newcomers?" It's really unprofessional of you to figure out your own menu. "

My colleague and I said, "Yes!" Thank you for your advice. | "

After the guest left, we were suddenly very confused. The guest was not bad, but we didn't correct him when he mispronounced the words. Will he be laughed at when he goes somewhere else to buy coffee later?

If this kind of thing happens to me, I really feel embarrassed to think about it.

[Qin latte]?

[Qin Princess latte]?

[prestige cake]?

What the heck are they?

It turns out that many netizens have made similar jokes around them. in the face of this situation, as service staff, should we correct the guests correctly?

Some netizens are embarrassed to correct their mistakes, but some netizens say they want to correct their mistakes, or they will be embarrassed for the rest of their lives.

Say no more, give me a prestigious cake!
