I'm still pissed off. I made the mistake of getting a coffee Coolatta and bagel at the only Dunkin Donuts near my work.

As always, they simply tossed the bagel in the bag with some butter. If I wanted to butter a cold bagel myself, I would have bought one much cheaper at the Shaws next door. Is it that fucking hard to butter a goddamned bagel?!?

And the Coolatta was utterly undrinkable. It was mostly liquid, not frozen, and it must have been 98% cream. It was as white as snow! I looked at the guy and said "That's a Coolatta? It's SO WHITE!".

He ignored me. Like an idiot I took the bagel and Coolatta (I'd already paid for them) and left the store. When I got back to my desk, I tried buttering the bagel; it was cold. I tried the Coolatta and nearly puked; it really was pure cream. I tried microwaving the bagel a little to melt the butter, and ended up with melted butter everywhere. So I threw the whole fucking mess in the trash. Then I wrote to Dunkin Donuts and complained, and then I went to Yelp.com and posted a bad review. But because that DD is in an Exxon Tiger Mart, I had to review that instead.

I am really, really pissed off this morning.

i have had crap like that go down with a local DDs as well, and i think they are afraid of me at this point. Why? because after 5 visits of TOO LIGHT coffee and a BURNED bagel i started checking before i left. and made them re do the order. Am i bitch? maybe so, but if i am going to spend my 4 bucks there, you had better make my food properly. after 4 or five visits where my order was incorrect and re done, i started seeing a change. But i know this doesn't make thigns better for you today.
i'm sorry you are having a craptacular day!!!

DD went way downhill after they stopped making donuts in most of their locations, didn't they? But maybe you're too young to remember that.

Dude! How old do you think I am?? Because i'll be 40 in a few months :D
I agree. I recall being in grade schoola nd going on a trip to our local DD in NY to learn about making donuts. it was awesome. They used to taste SO much better too!
