Answering the work phone


Nothing ticks me off faster than having to answer the phone at work . I work in a Starbucks and we have become the 411 of the area.
Typical calls:

I can't reach the store next to you. Can you tell me if they are open?
Can you tell me if the bagel store nearby has any poppy bagels left?
There is a jam on the freeway. Can you tell me what is the hold-up.

Followed by:
Can you tell me where you are located?
Are you open? DUH it is 9am and I answered the phone, I am open!
Why are your umbrellas green?
Where is a good place to buy an airplane ticket?
CAn I place an order for 27 frapucchinos, with EXTRA whip cream?
The list goes on and on.
We all groan and take #'s for who answers the phone next.

What about your calls at work?? What kind do you get??
Thanks Coco

I ticked myself off

Ok so I have been taken over by the creeping crud cold and flu that everyone has. I am ticked off that co-workers who are sick don't stay home and KEEP THEIR GERMS TO THEMSELVES !!!!
What are we to do??? Now I have to spend $$ on drs and meds and loose time from work. Thanks Everyone.
Coco is a bit crabby today.
Who has sick workers ticking them off???
Let us know
