Coffee

Why is it so difficult to get a good coffee at a fancy-pants coffee franchise?
I like my coffee. I take it white, or sometimes black.

I asked for a flat white at a coffee place last week, and I was asked for my name.
I want to drink the coffee, not get introduced to it!

But, apparently one cannot make a coffee until a name is entered into the computer system.
