 I work in a (sometimes) really busy place & that is one of my pet peeves, 
when they order a drink then give you the 'hold-on' finger while they turn to 
all 6 of their friends, one at a time, and ask them what they are drinking. I 
politely (sarcasm implied) ask them "if there are any other drinks I should 
know about before I go and make these?" I also like it when they rattle off 
6-7 drinks (it is imperative that you remember the order for this to work) to 
ask them what did they say right after "could I get a ...." then surprise them 
with the correct order. My goodness, how did He remember all 6 of those drinks?
