My rant on Starbucks

So, I go to the bank machine today, and it's only dispensing $50's. No big deal, I need some change for the subway, so this'll work out. I go to Starbucks to get my afternoon Tall London Fog and go to pay with my $50.

The girl goes "oooh, do you have anything smaller?" And I say no, because I don't, and she says that she doesn't have change. Not a big deal, I have some credits left on the Starbucks card.

I pay her, but at the same time I say "It's amazing that you don't have change for a $50 here!" half joking, and she says "Uh, we're a coffee shop sir." in a tone I don't find all that friendly.

So I retort, "Yeah! A coffee shop that sells six dollar coffees!"

She has no response. I call bullshit on not having change. After I got my coffee, I see her signing out as her shift is over. Not having 2 $20's and a $5 is ridiculous. Maybe it's some "don't take $50's or higher from nice people" rule.

I came in 10th in the CT game tonight, meh, and dropped $100 in the cash games - mostly at .10/.25 where I flop 2nd nuts and get stacked. STUPID.
