+---- Thread: Ended a "pay it forward" chain like an ALPHA at a Starbucks drive thru (/showthread.php?tid=6037299)
RE: Ended a "pay it forward" chain like an ALPHA at a Starbucks drive thru - Oh_Well - Aug 2, 2025
I'm not into this "Alpha" shit, could have just declined and moved on, why make a big deal of this?
Sometimes people can do what they want and it's okay if you broke it or continued the chain.
Glad you shared it though, that's why we're here.
PS: Just realized it was a post from 2020, did I go into the rabbit hole?

Got myself a venti pumpkin spice latte that came out to about $5
Got to the window the chick said the customer in front of me had already paid for my drink
Gave her a "thanks" and started driving off
She asked if I wanted to pay for the next customer in line and said they had a 25 streak going
Rolled up my window and drove away like a boss without further acknowledgment
Guess a lot of people were still in the festive mood from the holidays
Had to set them all straight and return it to reality
You really said, “kindness ends with me.” A 25-car streak just got deleted like that. It’s a cold move, but it’s kind of hilarious, not gonna lie.
