Work is not as bad as I think it is, most of the time. I think it's just a lack of sleep that grumps me up. Have you ever worked for Starbucks Coffee Company? It is definitely its own world. Small and tightly knitted, I love all my co-workers present and far off in other stores, but there comes an hour when I just want to toss a hot cup of coffee in someone's face! I'm sorry, why are you complaining? I don't even care, all you want is a free drink, fine just take it and leave, thank you goodbye.
I wonder sometimes if working for a mom and pop shop or a smaller chain would be less opportunistic, but I am going to say... no. That's humanity isn't it? Waiting for that moment when they can squeeze anything they can out of anybody or business. Some days I want to fight against those complain-o-holics and let them realize I know we didn't fuck up, your just flat out lying to my face right now. That tends to use up more energy then its worth and you start to humor them so you don't have to hear another word, but these people know statistics! Most people don't want to deal with assholes. If you complain enough you'll get your way. I sure was not raised that way. I got jack shit if I threw tantrums.
There is a lack of honor, dignity, value and awareness in today's consumer world. It cost money to provide products to people, it's someone's time, effort and talents you're devouring. You can't run from inflation, it tends to do it everywhere. We all have to pay the price for that and stealing, ripping off people and just out right complaining about products just to get another free one is petty, causes staff to lose hours, raises and thats right more inflation.
I say, if you're going to go to a yuppie place, expect to pay up the ass for it. Otherwise, if you want to save money, figure out how to do it yourself . Use your own efforts and time.

Post of picture of you throwing hot coffee in someone's face.
The biggest problem my dear is that over half those people complaining do not realize they are "out of line". What makes it worse is that I don't believe most of them consciously WANT a new drink. They simply are programmed to complain non stop until the get something (they don't really even want the FREE item-they just want to walk away feeling like they WON.) In that way-it really sucks cause it's like entering a ring and although you know you can fight (cause you're a scrappy little girl) you can't simply because the corporate world has literally tied your hands and taped your mouth shut so you just get the shit kicked out of you, go back to your corner where corporate let's you rinse, spit out the blood from your mouth and they tape you back to go in for another round. Now go find yourself a fighter as a boss and you'll be able to change the world! LOL
