    I've got to be in the top ~1% most extroverted people on the planet but I'm pretty sure baristas do not want to strike up idle chatter with customers. You should be kind and respectful when the opportunity arises though.

    they do wtf lol

    You guys are way too dramatic about this lol

    It's just a little conversation at the point of sale, people over the age of roughly 35-40 can do it without blinking

    Yeah, if he's holding up the line during rush hour or spending 30 minutes explaining the plot of all the post-Endgame Marvel movies, it's too much, but it's actually a perfectly normal thing to have a little moment of human connection with the person handing you your Starbucks

    I used to work as a cashier in various capacities and I can say while every customer doing this would kill me, it's not too onerous to shoot the s*** for a minute with the odd good-natured fellow or madam

    Crazy that in 2023 asking a stranger how their day is is considered a crazy idea

    Social media has destroyed us

    nah I'm cool. just give me my drink and let me go on with my day

    Ngl, if I'm getting drinks and I try to start a convo with the bartender my date might leave. Fucc I look like.

    Some people might clown OP for this but he’s 100% right. Too many people walk around with their head down and their airpods in, miserable with no social skills.

    Basic human interaction will make you happier. You don’t need to start asking people their life story, just literally say hello how are you.

    Worst case, you get a “good” and you move on with your day. Best case, you may make a new friend or a career connection

    exactly this, dont anyone tell you differently

    i just go off them

    sometimes it's clear someone open to a little chat, maybe they even start it, sometimes it's obvious they just wanna do they job in which case imma just keep it minimal but respectful

    yall sum nerds itt fr

    Are we surprised people on a niche message board have questionable social skills?

    hiding behind your phone with airpods on instead of socializing is a waste of life, trust me

    it always feels good in the moment but later you regret it, i can talk from experience. when i was working as a cashier as a summer job, the tourists from germany and netherlands were my favorite cause they were friendly.

    I remember one german redhead lady that was really charming and had this amazing friendly energy, her talking to me made my day better in just few minutes i swear

    I'm the same with barbers, sometimes I chat, sometimes I don't, if they're open to it they'll let me know one way or another.

    OP as someone who’s worked in retail and had to cover tills I can categorically tell you to STFU. Most people just want to get through their work days not strike up a banal conversation with some randomer. If you are going to strike up some sort of casual relationship with a regular it needs to happen organically

    Categorically stfu is hilarious

    as an introvert who didnt want to "be bothered" in college (fuck me i have so many regrets coming from this mindset), corona and soooo many months of isolation made me want and need to talk, i want to practice and be able to effortlessly socialize with anyone, thats one of my goals

    It’s definitely preferable to being the a****** that treats a Starbucks worker like a human version of the app they use to order
