“To go” is a very American expression. If this really happened, it’s a French W.
French lady probably heard ‘ta gueule’ (pronounced ‘to go’ in parisian) which is a rude way of saying ‘shut up’. The girl was likely trying to figure with her colleagues out what a ‘coffee STFU’ is. Best not to think too much about what they put in the coffee, coffee is hot anyway so any germs would be dead.
Nice touch of the americans to insult her job after telling her to STFU.
> obviously all coffees at train station cafes are to-go
Is this an Ameritard thing? There are normal sit-down cafes in all but the smallest of train stations in Europe
I swear savages always make the cringiest posts lmao. You should see how far they took this one story of an American confronting a pick pocket, they made it sound like every American is taking care of the problem in Europe even though the pickpockets are primarily targeting them. Fucking Embarrassing.
I think if this story is true, the writer is totally oblivious about something, and believe it’s mockery because thin American skin, while it’s more probable that something funny is happening for the worker.
Like to go, might be someone from the staff’s name, or surname, or a song, but totally unrelated to the American lady.
Thinking that a French worker has any cares about some random American lady mistakenly asking “to go”, or has the level of English to be able to make fun of someone else English errors, it’s knowing poorly our service people. We don’t have to hide our disdain, we are too hard to fire, and if they want to fuck with you they’ll do it plainly, not like Americans service workers who have to do it with more subtilty than the queen of England picking the color of her dress.
And the wining end quote is laughable. The worker will do a thumbs up, then ask for the next person. This is the most visited city in the world, they see millions of people, the second you walk off their eyesight you’re forever gone from their memory, while they’ll stay in yours enough to write a bloody Twitter essay.
these imaginary mean french people interactions are so weird to me. what compels someone to come up with this kind of fantasy
Tell us you’re a Savage without telling us you’re a Savage.
Coffee vendors afterwards: “And then they said they were on a *holiday*!”
American speaks English *and* French? And buys a regular coffee? And taking public transport?
Never happened.
was in France once ordering some food from some street food type stall and istg the cook/owner called my dad a pig
it was funny af though cause my dad understood and glared at the guy and the guy got nervous af (my dad is decently big and intimidating, or at least he was at the time)
Ofc, he has 9 weeks of paid vacation and a pension plan, working in the coffeeshop, while you are using your 72 hour hall-pass racing to and from airports all over europe.
Even if it’s true (i doubt), there is no way the waiter would have understood the last sentence so pretty useless
Yes, sure, this totally happened, it’s totally not French bashing for internet points, this is so original…
Like people serving coffee have time to waste making fun of customers…

Why are they acting like people who work at train stations can’t go on holiday too?
It lacks the ending when the crowd cheered and clapped while johnny comeback rode his rolling suitcase in the setting sun.
