It happens all the time, and most people usually don’t make a big fuss about it. But, at Starbucks, misspelling names occurs way too often, and a lot of these cases are simply hilarious. Even though we sometimes feel a bit embarrassed when we’re handed our cup, and there are 28 people waiting behind you, we still find ourselves tearing up in laughter when we see other people’s cups.
