A Starbucks barista in Florida is under fire for writing an extremely rude message about an unsuspecting customer’s health on their drink.
According to Action Jax News, the unnamed man reportedly ordered a grande white mocha from a St. Augustine-area Starbucks.
Although he did get the delicious mocha he ordered, the shocked customer also received some pretty harsh unsolicited advice from the barista as well.
Right there, on the cup, the barista allegedly wrote: “Diabetes here I come.”
The incredibly insensitive note was written where the anonymous customer’s name should have been.
He’s extremely hurt by the message, especially since "2 of my sisters are diabetic, so ... not funny," the man wrote on the cup in response to the rude comment.
"That first word just automatically brought the picture of both sisters in my head, and I was taken aback," he told Action Jax News. "Just the struggles they went through and all the doctor appointments they had."
While Starbucks has assured the customer that they will investigate and track down the cruel barista, he says he doesn’t even want an apology.
More than anything, he just wants to make sure that nobody else is criticized or shamed like he was again.
