I use honey to sweeten my morning coffee and afternoon tea. Approximately 5 weeks ago I ran out of honey at work and had forgotten to purchase some from my local farmer's market.

I sometimes frequent a more upscale coffee shop in the morning before work. They have excellent coffee and two stations where you can add various sweeteners or organic dairy/soy products to your coffee. Their honey is good and in a nice vessel for pouring. For the past three weeks I have been asking for an additional cup of ice with my coffee under the pretense of cooling it down or making my own ice coffee. I pour out the ice at the station and fill it with enough honey to last the week.

Today I purchased a coffee and asked for my usually ice cup . The coffee peon had the audacity to deny me my ice cup and actually told me that a customer had complained about my innocuous habit and that the manager would ban me from the store if I kept, "stealing honey".

I asked her how I was stealing something that was left out for the paying customer, and that I had every right to consume as much honey as I wanted to with my beverage. She said she was, "just the messenger" and to talk with the manager next Tuesday, when he would be back from holiday.

I am currently preparing a case and complaint against said manager and would like your advice on the matter. I was flabbergasted and vexed by this social interaction and it set me off for the rest of the day and possibly my weekend. I wonder if I could use this as part of my argument or to demand some sort of compensation (eg: free coffee for two weeks)?

Go make some authentic Irish stew, you insufferable cunt.

>> No.5515689

>>5515676

I don't understand. A proper Irish stew should only contain mutton, potato, onion, and water.

Honey was not available in Ireland until modern times, therefore adding honey would make my stew a modern stew, not a traditional Irish stew.

Is taking a big handful of the free sugar packets and keeping them considered stealing? Because thats basically what OP is doing. I always thought it was OK but sort of frowned upon?

>> No.5515869

>>5515862
Pretty sure most establishments that do honey-based drinks keep the honey behind the counter. My local tea places do this.

Meanwhile, they just leave the sugar packets out where the straws and stirring sticks are. There's a difference between what you can take and what you can't.

>> No.5515870

>>5515862

It's only not illegal because it would seem unfriendly, and management would rather have a few random asshole customers take advantage of the hospitality than be "that place where they limit how many condiments you can have"

If they leave it out where anyone can take it, much like sugar packets and those little wooden stick things for stirring your drink, then I don't see whats wrong with OP did. They wouldn't ban him for taking a handful of sugar each week so if they leave the honey where anyone can help themselves I don't see why they get annoyed. It is kinda cheeky of him to ask for a cup to do it but thats just him being frugal I guess.

>>5515870
It would also be really, really petty. YOU TOOK ONE SUGAR PACKET TOO MANY!! PUT IT BACK YOU THIEVING CUNT.

Also OP, just buy your own honey or go full hog and just take the whole honey dispenser and run for it. Go out in a blaze of glory.

Either that or buy some honey on wholesale for cheap.

I love honey I might ask for one more than I need, but I'm not stealing like 30 fucking honey packets from a store. And I'm sure as hell not stealing a whole cup worth. OP might as well just taken the whole damn honey container walked off with it and brought it back the next day.
