When you visit one of the Starbucks along Florida's Turnpike please remember these are not corporate stores with your normal barista. So when you order your grande, half caff, half regular, extra cup, extra whip latte it might take a moment for that to sink in to the person behind the counter.
Update: A commenter thought that Starbucks owned all their locations, this isn't true. Many of the airport locations (if not all) and those along the turnpikes are owned and operated by HMSHost company.

I thought that all Starbucks stores were corporate. As far as I know, they own all the stores. Maybe Florida is just a little behind the times in Barista technological advancements.
