Your personal Tumblr journey starts here
(and how they would annoy me as a customer)
from a sleep-deprived donut shop worker
Neil: our summer specialty of a glazed ring sliced in half with whipped cream and strawberries, but he still asks for it in the fall and we have to look him in the eye and tell him strawberries are out of season in December
Andrew: a donut of my own making! a glazed ring with crosshatched caramel drizzle. it's truly the most delicious donut on this earth and I will make it for myself but if a customer ordered it I would cry cause it takes so long to heat up the caramel and idk how to price it
Matt: a peanut butter triangle, but in the drive-thru at 1:30pm (we close at 2) and when I say we're out he just looks very sad and drives away (this doesn't annoy me it just makes me sad)
Dan: blueberry buttermilk, but she asked me if it was blueberry despite it saying it is in large text and then took 30 seconds of staring to say "yeah I'll take it"
Kevin: a plain old-fashioned (no glaze), but actually we're out already and he asks if I can just go make him one then
Nicky: a half-dozen filled donuts, but it's 5:01am and I just got there and opened the drive-thru, hence the donuts are not yet filled, when I tell him I'll need to fill them he asks how long it will take
Aaron: cream cheese cinnamon roll, but he would order it after 10:30am so I would have to go in the back and frost it for him despite the fact that I already frosted a bunch that morning
Allison: white cake, chocolate frosting, but in the drive-thru and she just says "a white cake donut" so I have to ask if she wants chocolate, vanilla, maple w nuts, cherry, or cookies and cream frosting and she looks mad when there are so many options and then just says "chocolate is fine"
Renee: 2 chocolate bars, but she is so gd nice it takes so long to get to her order and every time she asks my name and then says how beautiful it is. it always makes me happy but also like ma'am this is a donut shop drive-thru. once told me the meaning of my mom's name after asking. always says god bless you before driving away
