We’ve all experienced a ridiculous wait time at a drive thru. Starbucks sure knows how to handle the situation properly!
“While sitting in the line at Starbucks, I turned on my radio; opened up my window; thought about plans for the day and just contemplated what a beautiful day it was. I also searched my wallet for my Starbucks card for a moment. When I got to the window, my drink was ready. However; the gentleman at the window told me the drink was on Starbucks because I had to wait so long. Now, I tried to pay him anyway because obviously I had been oblivious to the wait, but the young man insisted. I really don’t know how long I waited, but Starbucks thought it was too long - so in the spirit of GREAT customer service and responsibility they tried to correct their ‘Over the Limit’ time perception. Great job, Starbucks employees! That is the way to keep customers!”
