Coffee Neglected

Recently I began to really examine my coffee cup use. Something I’ve struggled with is a reusable cup that still allows the coffee to taste good. I managed to find one that I love, and in 2020 I’ve been using it pretty regularly (I don’t think I’ve used a disposable cup in a couple months).

Yesterday I walked into a Starbucks (it was a last resort), and ordered my Americano and plunked down my cup. I ordered Sue’s drink and while I was doing this, the barista came over to see the order and got started. She neglected to take my cup, but the till clerk handed it over. I then watched as the barista had pulled the shots into a disposable cup, then proceeded to dump that into my cup. Then crush the now used cup.

sigh I tried.
