I absolutely love coming here during my off-times but I left extremely disappointed today and a little sad. Today in the Cafe I asked for a straw after I received my iced Strawberry acai. The people who got their drinks before me asked for one and I joined them in asking for one. The barista (who has been very nice to me up until this point) looked at me and said "Why do you need a straw for? Shame on you." I don't know what I did wrong but this interaction made me a little upset and taken aback because it was a comment made out of nowhere and it also confused me. I know that alot of people are staying away from plastic use where they can to do better for our planet. So maybe that's why she said that, or maybe there's another reason I don't understand why she made that comment towards me for. If I did something wrong I didn't do it on purpose and I don't think that comment was very nice and it left me confused and thinking about the interaction all day which I hate. I enjoy going to this barns and noble often and buy at least two books a month there If not more. I'm upset that I had this interaction there at one of my favorite places in town.
