Formerly loyal Starbucks customer Vicki Reveron got more than she bargained for with her morning cup of coffee.

New York’s WABC has the story.

“Instead of writing her name on the side, she says he wrote the B word.”
“It says b**ch, my name is not b**ch, it’s Vicki.”

“So I went to Vicki’s Starbucks and talked to a manager”
“Were you here the day that this happened?”
“No, but I heard about it, it was a mistake.”
“A mistake, what to do you mean, like a joke?”
“No no no no.”

Reveron tells reporters she overheard Starbucks staff mocking her as she left the store with the free coffee vouchers the store’s manager gave her. But a writer for the Student Operated Press is more concerned with the obscenity of Starbucks’ prices.

“I wouldn’t care if my Starbucks coffee cup was riddled with obscenities as long as I didn`t have to get a loan to afford it. The real obscenity is the price of a Starbucks cup of coffee; I can get a better tasting cup of coffee for much less at McDonald’s.”

And some are even willing to give the barista the benefit of the doubt. A commenter on the Daily Mail is looking at the glass half full.

“Maybe the employee had been up all night studying for an exam in Russian and so the next morning when this woman comes in and says her name is Vicki,’ the employee writes, ‘Biki’ which is basically Russian for ‘Vicki.’ ... C'mon, squint and give 'em the benefit of the doubt.”
