I know it's only 8:00 am, but this post already has a great chance of being the stupidest thing I read on the internet all day.

Is this a drive-through? If not, wouldn't it be better to put the milk and splenda in yourself at the counter? That wouldn't correct the lack of syrup, though.

Ok the thing is you can't expect them to do the milk, unless you're getting a drink off the menu like a latte or capuccino. I like iced espresso with lots of ice, 2 sugars and cream. I have tried ordering it through the drive thru etc and it's never quite right, which annoys me bc I am a picky, neurotic bitch. So I get off my ass and walk in, wait etc. If I don't have time to do that, oh well, no Starbucks that day. But I'm telling you they'll never get that picky ass drink of yours exactly right. Accept this truth and go from there.

Stop using the mobile app. It's not saving you any time. Just go I and order

LOL @ "how do other people handle"
There's nothing to handle. Also how da hell did you manage to spill coffee on your white pants simply pouring extra coffee into a trash can? The cans at Starbucks are open holes in the coffee condiment station, there's not even a door to hold open with one hand or anything. You're like those people in infomercials who have to pretend to be extra inept to sell a tool nobody actually needs:

This morning my coffee was filled to the top and I asked the barista if he could take it back to pour some out and put the milk in.

I paid $4 something for my coffee and I would like it to be what I ordered! But at the same time, I felt like it would be overkill to go back inside. There's no question that he forgot the syrup, though.
So I drove away, but now I'm kind of sad because I really was looking forward to my coffee and I don't love the way it tastes without the syrup. I raelize that this is a complete first world problem, but it's my one "treat" of the day and I like to get what I've paid for. How do other people handle when the baristas mess up your order?
Check before you go. Just like at the drive-thru, you look through your bag before driving away, right? Way too much trouble to go back in once you are gone.

Pick one Starbucks, go every day so that they know you're order. Then complain about how you are broke on $200k.

But sugar free syrup and make yours at home? You don't need a $4 treat of the day every day, do you?

I keep a few packs of Splenda or stevia sweetener in my purse. Or you could grab a couple packs on your way out.
