we have some very creative and artistic people at the coffeehouse where i work. we have several dry erase boards for various things... and have pictures drawn for sale items, announcements, coffees of the week, etc. we also have a "special of the day" board.
when i got to work on saturday, the special was a HIGHLY illustrated and very vivid depiction for our "Spicy Leprechaun" latte. which is a latte with cinnamon and irish cream hence, the name. and the girl who drew the sign also had a small person wearing green and standing over a pot of gold with a rainbow. very well done. quite classy. but, i noticed, upon closer inspection, that the spelling was not LEPRECHAUN, but LEPRECHAN. so, i said something about it. L, and D (the 2 who were working) said that there was some discussion about the spelling... but since she had gotten so far in the artwork, it was too late to turn back.
and being the silly imaginative ones that we are... we started making fun of the lepreCHAN. they are a small chinese-irish clan out of san francisco. and with the rainbow.... they became a group of GAY, green eyed, vertically challenged irish-chinese men. how much more politically incorrect could we be? too bad he didn't have his shillelagh to beat our asses for making fun of him.
so we have made fun of this poor gay lucky charms bastard all day... and then just when you thought it couldn't get any worse....
that night, when in the middle of a rush, one of the employees abbreviated it on a cup so i knew what drinks were which.. and the Spicy Leprechaun gay, green-eyed china man became a
Spic Leper.
damn. now he is not only gay, short, part chinese, part irish, and unarmed, he also is part hispanic (yet another minority) and has a deadly skin disorder.
see what too much coffee can do to you?
don't you wish you worked where i do?
i hear there will be an opening in february.
just in time for St Paddy's!
har. har.
