The author of the post started the story by sharing that in their workplace, they often order coffee from Starbucks and takes turns on who will go and pick everything up from the place and bring it to the office. That particular day it was OP’s turn. So when they came up to the coffee shop to take the order that was made online, they saw that the place was full of people. Even the barista that OP already knew explained that they had to wait due to this unexpected rush of people. Having some time, the author of the post went to the bathroom.

After they came back, they saw their order, but someone else was already grabbing it. Seeing this, OP went to the woman who took the drinks. She wasn’t alone, she was sitting together with her 2 little daughters, one being around 4 years old, and the other around 8 or 9 years old. So they approached the woman and explained the possible mix-up. However, the woman didn’t want to let go of the order that easily as she thought that her kids at least should’ve been allowed to try the drinks first, as they didn’t know what they wanted. This is how OP found out that the woman haven’t even placed an order and just took their order.

After an unsuccessful attempt by the customer and even the barista to convince the woman to give the drinks back, the author of the post just let one of the girls try out the “chocolate” drink that was actually “8 shots of espresso over ice with some almond milk and a drizzle of chocolate syrup”. Of course, after this, the little girl didn’t even think of trying another sip and ended up spilling the coffee all over her mom who then rushed out of the coffee shop. This story made a lot of people online question such entitled people and even make some jokes about how the mom should’ve struggled to handle a kid that just had some caffeine.
