    Some things that you didn't know about StarBucks...

    1. There are over 87,000 drink combination possibilities.
    2. The Cinnamon Chip Scone has more calories than a Quarter Pounder.
    3. Starbucks opens two or three new stores daily.
    4. The tables are designed with solo diners in mind.
    5. There’s a secret size not on the menu. It's called a "short". Smaller than a tall.
    6. Starbucks requires employees to open stores 10 minutes before posted opening time, and 10 minutes after closing time.
    7. Part of the employee manual states that "Not Smiling" is a fire-able offense.

    You plan on being up for quite a while?

    Most of that is actually good information and more businesses should do the same.

    Agreed. Thankfully I don't have one in my town but do have a couple of other chains and a couple of independents. One of the independents makes the tastiest coffee I've had in a long time.

    Now, you want GREAT coffee? Head to New Zealand. As long as you don't mind it's still the 1950's there.

    People love to complain and exaggerate about everything. If they poured plain coffee, you didn't pay $4.

    It is. In layman's terms the sizes go:

    Igi, small, medium, large, X-large.
