Tim Horton’s rant

4 hours later and I’m still fuming at how Tim Horton’s screwed up my coffee again.
Here’s the story, I decide to make a special drive out this morning to get my and my wife a coffee. She wants me to take this travel mug instead of wasting a paper cup. I knew this was going to be a disaster because asking to fill up one travel mug in the drive thru with 2 cremes, but 1 creme in the other normal paper cup was too much to handle. Compound that with the fact that 90% of the employees working at that location is not Canadian and cannot speak English.

So there I was, “Can I take your order?”

“Yeah, I’d like one large coffee, two cremes. I have a travel mug for that one by the way”.

…”You’d like a refill?”

“Yes, that coffee will be in a travel mug.”

sjdhfjkasdjhf <<< This is non-English speak by the employee.

I murmer, “I have no idea what you just said.”

“I’d also like another large coffee, 1 cream. I don’t have a travel mug for that one so I guess in a regular paper cup?”

sjdhfjkasdjhf <<< This is non-English speak by the employee.

I murmer, “Oh sh*t…I have no idea what you just said.” I’m pretty sure they heard this.

“You’d like a refill?”

At this point I’m looking at where I can drive off but there’s never an escape from a drive-thru. I think they build the curve things on purpose to keep you locked in so you can’t drive away in retaliation. I’m forced to ride this one out.”I’d like one large coffee, 2 cremes in this travel mug, I’d like another large coffee, 1 creme in a regular cup. That’s it.”

sjdhfjkasdjhf <<< This is non-English speak by the employee.

I drive through. I’m asked to pay $4 something for two $1.52 coffees. She passes me 3 cups. I explain the situation and end up with a travel mug and 1 more cup. I ask her twice:
“So this is the one with 2 cremes and this is the one with 1 creme?”

“Oh yeah-yeah, two creme”

“Oh sh*t.”

Totally a bad feeling about this but I have my hands full and I’m not about to start opening lids and checking for brownish tones so I drive home. I get home and both are very very light, meaning two creme in both, plus mine has like 2 sugar in it. I was furious and I’m still in a bad mood. That was my last five bucks and my gas tank empty light is on. Kill kill kill.
